V2.0 Firmware Will Never Run Homebrew !!

**Oxnyx** · July 29th, 2005, 03:29

Ok, I got to say I've upgraded my psp, I never have had huge abouts of luck running homebrews and I got the money that I can get a game or two if I want them.

Personaly I never been super attached to old Gameboy games. I like graphics and GUIs (...ducks from flames from *NIX lovers) Personally I feel that newbies are likly to be the sorta person who would enjoy having the web b. (which does run the web pretty well) and the ablity to some the backgroud changing every month. ...grrrr...

But here the thing you guys sit here and whin about Sony slowing you down from hbrews and hacks but really as I remeber PSP was less then 24 hours to market in the US when PureWipe Out WebB DNS redirect came out and an other month (maybe???) before the homebrews demos came out. So really atm your not being that hard done by. It's not like MS with Auto Update pushing the Update on your system without checking with you, you have to check, you have to agree.

I can see that the Web B for sony Bookmarks uses a flat HTML page which means if your PSP stops playing Chess and you Gameboy Org. Favs you'll all turn your mind to exploiting the hell out of the Web B. Wheather it chips or swapping or touching your toes with your nose I'm sure we'll see something sooner or later...

The people in this thread seem like they might know this one.
All the talk of updates and cracks, hacks and exploits are all fine and good.
But is there even a mod chip out for the psp at this point?
Im asking cause I dont know, I havnt kept up with modding news lately

like quzar said.. any mod chip would be very very difficult to put in your psp. The chip would either stick out the side or be very very tiny. Im not sure how much room is inside an opened psp, but its probably not much.

We thought there would never be a gamecube modchip, and look finally. It took a while, but still got it. Anyways, it's a shame Sony isnt embracing homebrew, so we can get full use out of it. It would help with sales of their system. I rememeber this happened with Microsoft with TechTV. On the Screensavers, they would show all the exploits you could do with the XBOX...$#@! we already knew, but MSoft got pissed and sent them letters to stop. Later that month Xbox sales got real high and they stopped harassing TechTV. This is what I heard...

dont even try to compare the GC or Xbox to the psp. the size makes it extremely difficult to do any hardware modifications. as stated before.

Come on guys I think the size of the new mod chip you are quoteing is an estimation. You have to realize,This isnt three years ago,this is today. The mod developers have acess to much smaller chips to work with now

I admire your optimism.

well the idea of owning a modded psp is very pleasing, but i wish theyd release some sort of firmware rip for the games (if it is even possible, i dont know anything about coding or even making homebrew), like ripping parts of an iso out to make it fit on a dvd. if that happens i wont have to buy another psp just to play gta liberty city stories.

I had just gotten into the emulation homebrew scene about a week ago and loved it. i was ignorant though and downlaoded the new 2.0 the first chance i had. i was going to swap my psp for a 1.5 later today but people are making it seam as if the new gta and other such games may not run. i dont want to hear a bunch of bs, just give it to me straight. IF YOU DONT KNOW!!! DONT AWNSER!!!!
