Psp Downgrading Possible Soon

[Fishbong]

Awesome News! It will be possible in a few days to downgrade a PSP with 1.5x firmware to 1.5 !
Good news for me, for i´ve been able to get my hands on a 1.51 !!! (little trading involved).
Soooo, i will be able to play homebrew again soon!

i wont trust anything like that till i have it in my hands, especialy in the psp scene.

 

[Fishbong]

Hey, it´s been announced by Yoshihiro, he´s gotta know what he does, right?

 

[Vimacs]

Any proof that its not a fake? i dont trust some site reporting something they heard when it dosnt come directly from a trusted source.
And a setted release date at homebrew allways sounds fishy.

 

[Fishbong]

Erm, this has been announced by the developer himself, Yoshihiro, who is well known in the PSP scene, especially for his version changer tool (which is used to prevent games from updating your firmware, in case you don´t know) so i would say this is indeed a trusted source.

 

[Vimacs]

Show me a proof that he sayd it, its just someone in a forum saying that he sayd it.
I prefer beeing sceptik than beliveing evything iam getting told.
There ware so many fakes in teh short livetime of the psp.

 

[Axeman]

Mine's already a 1.5

sorry - pointless gloating there... Seriously though - will be great for homebrew - even better when 2.x can be downgraded...

He has said it.

You seem really negative on all the avoidng update/firmware hacking issue...any reason behind that?

 

[Fishbong]

Jup, Yoshihiro HIMSELF announced it...(well, in this forum a admin wrote it) What more proof is needed?

And if it is a fake, then why is this hack limited to ONLY 1.5x versions? IF someone Announced something like: "OMG teh 2.0 frimware haz been cracked !!111!" then i´d be sceptical, but why fake such "small fishes"?

im bitter with the lack of released games.... it sucks

 

[Kop_007]

Goodjob we have homebrew...

But not to worry...Virtua Tennis, GTA....and WE out soon.

 

[Quiest]

Uaaahh! Can`t wait for that!

I really wanna try SNES on my PSP!

 

[junker]

what's to look forward to? WE yeah, but GTA..HEEELLL NO! and GT4 mobile will probably be released at the end of the psp's life, hah.
huge lack of games...

the summer is the traditional dead period for game releases. September is when the new games start to drop if this "downgrader" is released sept. 1 like they claim people will have to decide to either downgrade to continue playing emulators or upgrade to play games they've been waiting for for 3 months.


Either that or just constantly switch between firmware to play both, and risk ruining their PSPs altogether.

hahaha see how Sony tries to entice people to firmware 2.0?

Well, can't say that's not a good attempt!

 

[Kop_007]

Virtua Tennis is boss by the way.

 

[lubidog]

Have you played it? It's probably the pick of the crop for me, come thursday. It'll be odd to walk into a shop, and buy a psp game....

 

[Quiest]

Can someone list the (new) games, that are being released with the PSPs European release?

 

[Alpha2]

Release dates probably arent set in stone but I'd be willing to guess the games listed here will be out in the first month for you Eurogamers.
