Fake or legit? PSP CFW 6.00 beta video |
Ó
Author of this vid is Mack, who insists that his 6.00 MAC-B isn't fake. He promises to release the download soon, with extra colors and the network update rename. With no plans of a CFW 6.00 M33, this one came with a bit of surprise, so don't get your hopes up just yet.
Let the scrutinizing commence.
Thanks to Zac Isaac for the heads up!
Fw 6.00 updates:
19 Jumps Custom firmware 5.50GEN-D now out

after watching both videos i think this is the real deal.we'll just have to wait and see
A couple minutes into the video he attempts to update the PSP over the network. Well the whole time it's attempting to download he's covering up the text "Network Update" in the upper left corner. In 6.00 it's supposed to say "System Update" isn't it?
Seems legit I didn't see any tricks or anything. Although there's no proof of any +5.55 fw games running. But its still looks more legit than Team MX
I honestly don't believe this one bit, as all of the things in the video can easily be tampered with with a few simple changes in a hex editor.
But it can be changed with a Hex Editor, as can your FW version's Displayed Number.
It is hard to make an opinion about the release because of how everything is set up. The Recovery Menu looks like GEN, and most of the categories have custom names, making it even harder to decipher if it is real or not. I guess we will have to wait and see.
At 3:45 you can clearly see it still says network update instead of system update. These retarded kids failed big time with that one.
Whats there point in showing this video. Make it and release it, or shut the f...up simple.
Faker than AOP
They use a custom theme and a version spoofer. They never show the new features, and it took a second video for them to 'fix' the improperly named Network Update. They never open the Game menu, which would be a dead giveaway since the 'Group Content []' text would appear on the menu.
15 seconds in it says "Use m33 Network Update"... I mean it's beta... but that beta?
Exposing them is important, I figure they probably are trying to develop there own crappy firmware based off of GEN-B's code, and they are really just using GEN-B, with some hex edits, anyone else agree?
Ultimate VSH menu by red squirrel is being used in the vid. Then he goes into recovery menu and Ultimate VSH menu is disabled...
Also, at the end of the second vid, he tries to update from firmware 3.51..
i could do all that with zinga burgers rco editor and that baboon didnt even know that a psp phat had a umd switch, they are cleary psp noobs...
if it's true he can try games that require 5.55+ fw and see if it plays. that way i'll either believe it's true or hell yeah we can finally play games requiring 5.55. lol
This is just another fake. Theres already been 3 fakes within the past week or 2? lol Easy ways to tell a fake -Youtube account made today... -No background information -They came out of nowhere, literally. No names whatsoever. -No 6.00 features were shown[People already caught Network Update.They obviously forgot to cover that] -Same old phrase "Beta","download will arrive shortly". -No iso's shown/tested. There is nothing legit about this video. Don't know wtf you're talking about.
All I'm wondering is that how such an obivious fake managed to get to qj.net, you can easily spot it as a fake by watching the upper left corner when he tries to update. It says "..rk update", system doesn't spell like systemrk ;)
I have 6.00 installed now and this is a definite fake. 1, network update. In 6.00 it says SYSTEM UPDATE from the time you click the icon to the time it finishes checking. 2, firmware settings. This is Bull***** as its still called SYSTEM SETTINGS in 6.00 3, anyone can do everything he does with a 6.00 version.txt. 4, there is no proof it can play any 5.55 games so there is still no proof its real. 5, The firmware has only been out for 1 day and its only been decrypted for a few hours so I very highly doubt there will be a CFW this soon.
How about we drop this and let it die? It has no right to be an article that is jumped to a million times just so that we can start flaming how this is a fake video, how it is so much crap and all that. Just ignore it, and flame the Youtube page, fill there inbox with spam, whatever.

Nuke this already. In the name of the jesus's, remove it, push it out. Push the button. Remove the rubbish that tarnishes the scene. This is not news, gossip! hate it... Site admin, ban the user by IP! Stop the abuse on qj, this is getting sickening. Trace the ip from the post and shutdown his machine down as well and rid us of this disease spreading freaks. For the love of GOD. Destroy them F@%!'s lovehate;>
Thanks for agreeing with me, this article should be just locked away or deleted or something, as it serves no purpose, and is NOT PROOF, of a new CFW, it is a hoax, and you will all find that out eventually.
when he is on the update there is no options like in 6.00, and if you watch it closely it says network update in the top left corner.
Read the Subject of this post. ALSO, I decided to enlighten the QJ Staff about this so that they can drop this like a bomb, and it will be official and all that, don't care if they post it, everyone knows it is fake now.
I can't believe editors of this site bought this fake. We trust you to keep us up to date with the latest news on psp scene and you fall for a fake that wouldn't fool a five year old...
i think its someone who just likes the sound of his own voice. wheres the psn proof & as said previously 5.50+ games? oh well, at least it has green menus cause green "is amazing"!?!
i honestly believe these guys actually try put more work in to make a fake CFW seem real than to actually make a real custom firmware what are these guys trying to prove. it means nothing so stop nobody is going to give you thanks we will only see you as a douchebag that gets everyones hopes up. JUST STOP
Could do with some lights in that room and jack up the volume on the PSP so ur not dubbing over with ur voice. Version.txt could be loaded from a flash1/2/3/4?? and no 5.55 games loaded via iso. PROVE ME WRONG, i dont want this to be a fake....
Just shut your fking mouths...if this is fake all said nothing done thats it...if this is real then whopdey fkin do...just at least be happy if this is real that they are doing this for FREE! Jeez you people expect so mush from something free! I bet some of you people thought DAX was fake in the begining...yes I know that he was to his word but in the beginning there were a few doubters.
The guy could of just ran an iso from his PSP instead of switching PSP, u know just swap MS instead of a whole psp which then proves that recov menu is possibly fake
Guess ur right this is free, and i dont hate u
There is no reason to be f*cking grateful for fake custom FW.
Why is this story even on here? Is it douche bag week or something?
that you were grateful for OFW as well cause you like much people are b!tching...yes CFW kicks major a$$ and just be patient cause I don't see you doing anything grateful for the homebrew community either...and yes I know I ain't doing sht either so I ain't b!tching if this is fake
so why they didn't play DiRT 2 or G.I.Joe... for proof
I also have OFW 6.0 and under system update it didnt even ask for the option to update via network or disk and the small psp icon under system setting on 6.0 looks a bit smaller.
The "features" don't interest me, I'll go with GEN when it comes out. Hopefully they've worked out the bugs that detained me from upgrading to theirs..Until then its still 5.00 for m33 ;)
yeah, this is really fake, they are not even known at all.. :)
Amen Brotha
You must be new here.
I just hope if it is real.. THey don't release it untill GO is here.. :/
OK, first of all, to the people who are saying the QJ Staff isn't smart by posting fake news, the name of the article is "Fake or Legit? PSP CFW 6.00 beta video", so QJ obviously knows it could be fake. It was just probably the lack of PSP News that made them post it up. Second of all, even the proof MAC-2 Beta isn't fake video still makes the video look fake. Network Settings on the top left corner, and all the names seem to be hex edited. Therefore, its a fake, and do not criticize QJ for posting it up. They know it could possible be fake.
tell me what you did with proof...show all of this to me
http://www.qj.net/index.php?pg+64+q+freeplay
You can see the pixels.
Freeplay's site http://freeplay.halfmoon.ws/ He may be a douche, but he's done more for the PSP scene than you will ever do with your life.
fearevil19 your link doesn't work and yes I tried it with both + and equal sign...my life?!?!?!?! just pure bs
Search "Freeplay" in here
You wanna stop these fake cfw's then resist filling these forum pages with comments about them because the fakers just want people talking about them.. most people can spot propaganda so use those skills and realise there's probably less than 20% chance this is real.
Anyone else gets the feeling that Sony actually paying people to release fake videos like that...
and why would they do that?
...It's real.
To mess around with PSP community... Picture some graduate kid straight out of uni joining Sony marketing team. Trying to impress his new boss he comes up with an idea to release some fakes to safeguard their upcoming PSP Go.
And very easy to install - since 6.00 is finally decrypted you just unpack the 6.00 Update and put the Eboot renamed to 600.PBP in the memorysticks root. Just search "Despertar del Cementerio" on google. There are LOADS of tutorials.
come again?
How would that safeguard the PSP Go in any shape or form? There is no "conspiracy".
It's not.
It's a shame that people feel the need to waste not only our time, but their time creating fake videos. If it was real, they wouldn't spend so much time defending its validity. MX and MAC--you're an insult to the real developers of the PSP scene.
c'mon. really? this is so fake. someone obviously has cfw and the fw # changer. They also renamed the icons. either that, or they made a shell and launched it from the recovery mode. its fake.
nice :)
what a waste of time. what is the point?
lol
i think its probably real. but im not getting my hopes up. theres no reason to flame him. i think people should be more pissed at dark alex. and this site shows why. http://johnnypossum.blogspot.com/
You're a f*cking imbecile and your site is a completely f*cking irrelevant mess of conspiracy bullsh*t.
I think you should apologize for that comment.
So people say I speak crap. How's this. proof that MACK CFW is fake http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OES0B-OMBQg
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OES0B-OMBQg This is proof the MACK video is fake. This video is 6.00 firmware showing the new 6.00 features.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OES0B-OMBQg I uploaded a video of 6.00 firmware and the new features where the MACK video doesnt show any of them proving it a fake.
h**p://www . you tube . com/watch?v+OES0B-OMBQg I cant get the link to post so hopefully this time it works. This is proof the MACK video is fake. This is 6.00 firmware and the new features included in 6.00 that MACK cant show as theirs is a fake and doesnt have them.
Maybe 0m3GA. I mean sure some things could be easily manipulated to easily be a fake, but with as many people leaving and joining the PSP scene, as many websites out there, SDK's available, guides, and source codes, it's made the PSP scene a hell of a lot easier that a 10 year old with some coding experience could make a homebrew app for PSP. Maybe not a full CFW, but it still could be possible. Either way I'm not jumping through hoops. I'm more leaned toward it being fake until some features turn up, but if they truly are new to the scene and it takes them some time to make the firmware then good for them, the jokes on us, but I do have to say that if another team (one of the other 4 billion teams out there) makes 6.0 firmware first, the joke is on them, because most people will not only go for the firmware that is the newest, but also a firmware that is developed by those that have experience and not just written by kids straight out of high school. No offense or anything team Mac, but you listed no background on your coding experience.
He reminds me of this youtube video: watch?v=nZMwKPmsbWE
He reminds me of this youtube video: nZMwKPmsbWE
have a look at the site he posted before judging whether freeplay should apologize. its basically as if theyre saying dark alex owes us everything and hes cooped up like a baby because its too much pressure. its friggin nonsense, and then to say they saved the day with a non existant firmware LOL. what a joke
Wouldn't bother with this anyway, CFW releases are the best proof of real or fake.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v+Y92v2XbBw7E just them explaining about their firmware...I could give less of a crap about flaming so go ahead I won't respond oh and last remember about the + to equal sign
Seeing as how all these fake cfw's seem to generate a lot of comments and traffic for QJ, I doubt they'd stop posting these. Yes, there's a LOT of fake CFWs out atm, too. Lame week...
Let the damn topic die already! Everyone knows this is fake by now, there is no need to continue squabbling like a bunch of prepubescent children. Of course given the fact that a portion of you really are only 10-13 years old, that is to be expected. This is old, this is done, we know it is fake, no need to keep explaining the obvious.
