ummm DAX wasn't the only hacker out there, but probably best though, remember he did have some help with OE firmwares, if they all quit THEN panic

noobz (fanjita) and team c+d are still cracking them

as long as they are exploited i'm sure someone can use it to their advantage to make a umd loader for the newest games without having to update to the next fw

besides, sony will always update, just not silly little security patches like 3.51, etc...it will be extraneous features no one wants, but, updating in the first place is now a challenge just to play the new games anyways...

well i dont know about everyone else but this isnt as big a deal for me as everyone else.
i think D_A deserves a lot of credit for what he's done so far with unlocking the fimrware but he also deserves a life. for whatever reason he has decided to leave the scene wether it be coz its time consuming oir sony offered him a job or he's been threatened with legal action. i fully understand why he would leave. i mean why would someone put themselves in a possible legal fight so that other people can carry on playing illegal copies of games
the only reason for regular updates is for iso loading, i mean i hear a lot saying dont leave do a 3.51 oe before you leave. the only thing 3.51 has extra is the security patch for lumines and games that will require 3.51. so why hold on for a patch that plugs an exploit?.

i still use 3.10-oe as i dont play ANY psp games on my psp. i use my psp purely for emulation of megadrive, nes, n64, psx (which is why i love D_A). i laso watch live tv on it etc.virtualy everything but iso loading.if it wasnt for psx games and the internet broswer i'd actualy still be on 1.5 lol. this is why D_A leaving the scene hasnt had the same imapct with me as everyone else.

i peronaly think it will be good for the scene. this will inspire lots of other coders to take the position of #1 psp hacker/coder.
and if sony took the time out to look into the homebrew community and find a way of 100% homebrew with 0% chance of an iso loader i seriously think homebrew would become officialy supported by sony..

either way Thanks to Dark Alex. enjoy your retirement from the scene and good luck in all your future endevours.

Becuz25 is the future of custom firmwares now. Lets just hope he stops living in the past on firmware and starts cracking the new firmwares.

OE Development went against sonys likes. They were angry that people were menacing with their machines. Even though the software development was under the GDML Free software license, Sony fought back with their secret armys of anti OE/hombrewers. Sounds stupid?
Believe it.
