hmm? well, let's see what happens. Do I still hear "FAKE!"??

@QJ

This news is so old it's retired and on social security.

Really, QJ?

This video could have been posted in the other article, considering video was posted several days ago. Making 2 news posts regarding an already established fake firmware is really unprofessional. I understand it causes a flood of comments and helps boost advertising revenue, but the site is slowly becoming less about quality news and more of a rumor bin.

Also..

I posted a link of this video on the other article as well

Not again!

Reply to the stupid video. Don't think you be getting any supporting comments! I think it's very rude to attack against any person in the video (FreePlay in this occasion). If hacking would be that easy, a new custom firmware would have been released a long time ago. Your timing was bad, like you said. Don't try to prove anything. We don't need convincing at the time, show the results wheNever you get those. No more of these videos, please. Concenrate the things that matters. Thank you!

blah

so in conclusion you're saying, it is real, a real waste of time that does nothing in particular and is no good to anyone, i won't be holding my breath for that release.

oh boy

I just hope this will see the light of day, or any other CFW so I can play Disgaea 2

Hmm

If you dont like QJ, dont read it. It's simply a news site. Oh noz, they arent lightning quick. Maybe readers should send emails pointing things out like this if you worry about it being updated with news right as it happens. I daresay most people who read this site dont spend days dedicated to simply slouching in front of their PCs combing every source of info on the net. They come here to get a quick recap of various topics, regardless of what they are, and choose just to read only the headlines they want. Some people sure whine a lot, considering its a free news source.

...

Put your hands in the Ayer if you just don't Cayer.

.

1. If you are working on a Custom Firmware then simply release it when its done instead of doing such announcements. 2. Did you just publish a "video" on YouTube that only contains text? Seriously...

DAX

I just have to say, Please DAX make this CFW. It been long time I didn't heard about DAX. No progression or project from DAX ever since 5.00M33 released. He has the MOST STABLE CFW ever made. Cross finger. 6.00M33. =)

...

Personally I say give em a chance. Maybe this will turn out to be real.

this is annoying..

most of us are checking qj about 2 times a day in hopes of getting the real news, of a cfw, and this is the second time you made me waste time reading crap.. any person who's spending countless hours debugging fw and trying to crack it will: 1. be active on some website now or in the past digging info or already be an known member of the dev community, not some kids no one heard of that figured it out all by themselves. 2. they'll seek approval or whatever they want on forums dedicated to this sort of thing. not the youtube crowd that mostly doesn't know what fw is...

Well then,

You should send them some fresh news submissions.

yeah but there's always

3. something will happen like it did with team GEN and some butthurt fellow coder will reveal your name and information because of speculation of leaked code.

joke!!!

everything about this makes me laugh the videos, the speculation and the comments im jus gunna sit back and see what comes of all of this but i definatly think its fake lol

uhhg

You know, sometimes I wish that developers would stop being divas. Everyone gets so pissed off when people flame them or accuse them of being fake. You know what the ultimate response to that kind of attack would be? Releasing a kick ass CFW, which is what you are setting out to do in the first place. Yeah, people are *****s and most of them probably don't deserve what you are doing, but that's always going to be the case with whatever you do. If you're going to do something, do it because you want to, not because you're craving some kind of acclaim from the bunch of whiny, illiterate 12 year olds that make up the majority of the homebrew scene.

might as well

It is a major update from 5.00-6.00 even if the features aren't all that different, might as well cause that way we can PSN our games, I still can't DL FF7 because of this!

dont degrade the hombrew scene like that

Not everyone in the homebrew scene is dumb fool and naive.There are actually people here that use there common sense. Now as for the video, it is old news QJ seriously am not dissing but it is and the Mac-asses Fw is fake.Now mark my post down noobs.

You're incapable of creating your own PS1 eboot?

1.50 kernel VS. GRN TURISMO

THERE IS NO USE IN UPGRADING FROM 5.00M33-6 TO 6.00 WHATSOEVER, I F THERE IS NO 1.50 KERNEL ADD-ON (AND MEMORY STICK READ SPEEDUP). I MEAN, GRAN TURISMO IS A "MUST-HAVE" , BUT I STILL TKINK TWICE BEFORE LEAVING BEHIND MY EMULATORS AND HOMEBREW.

@catacamas

You are wrong, the homebrew devs left you behind a long time ago by not updating their brews to work with higher firmwares and still developing for that old ass kernel.

Hard to say...

Has anybody else even INSTALLED 6.00? I tried it on both my 1000 and 2000, and the System Settings icon has changed to something smaller, like the Go. I didn't get a good look in the first video, but it looked like the symbol was the same as older firmwares.

GO TEAM MACK!!!

FU@K ALL them NOOBS! I will be more then glad to beta test anything. I got 4+ PSP's so.. -X- O_o

Cool!

Keep up the good work!

I think

We should all just wait for GEN, they are better at this than these jokers.

To all you haters:

I'm not with Team MACK, and I do think they're blowing some amount of smoke, but dont blame QJ for posting it -- If you're going to be a news site that aims to be moderately complete, you post the possible fakery going "We dont know if this is fakery, but its sure interesting." Being unbiased is the point of newscasting :)

.

The video says wait "a month or two". If it is real, there'd probably be another CFW by then.

expert says...

FAKE. Obviously fake.

FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE FAKE

Come on QJ why you posting ***** for nowadays u can see that this is a fake. 1. They say that they cant load games yet cos the drivers are screwed but they can load plugins, this is BULL*****! how can they mess an important feature up of an OFW, if they have, then these guys dont know what they are doing. 2. When was CXMB released for 6.00? 3. Under network ther should be 2 options 1. Update via Internets 2. Update from Storage device what they removed it from the menu to save space, this is BULL*****! too cos they wouldnt be able to rewrite the entire firmware from scratch, if they have then they is better than SONY n we wouldnt have to worry about OFW releases cos these guys could write us a new firmware with evreything working for months to come. 4. Who the ***** is Team MACK? they came out of nowhere to say they have made a CFW, since when has someone decrypted a firmware and made it into CFW the day the actual OFW comes out. I can think of one person DAX but even he wouldnt decrypte it and CFW it in a day cos theres gonna be changes in firmware that has to be analysed first before going ahead with his work. 5. Since when does a firmware support an array of kernals cos i seen them using 3.XX kernal on what supposed to be 6.00. if u think this is real then u are a retard just like these guys just wanting attention. what they showed u is all hex edited from TEAM GENs 5.50CFW and for all u noobs they probably flashed the plugins so they wouldnt need the memory stick cos plugins work from flash aswell.

cxmb

1) you dont need cxmb for custom themes, you can directly edit the rcos 2) just wait till they release somthing weather it works or not before you comment, i know my post will go down for this, but i think there is a real chance that its real

Y'all a trip!!!

It's to funny sitting here watching people BiT[h about something that will be free. If this group "MACK" is really working on dropping a CFW for us end users. Why not allow them the proper time and respect to do so. If they released the firmware most of y'all would still BiT[h and moan that DAX needs to release a CFW. The point that people need to remember, nobody needs to do $h!t. Just be happy somebody is taken the time to do this so we can enjoy our community like before, with newer games, features if there are some added, homebrew and so on. To sit here and complain over something that is free qualifies you as a troll, d!khead, & whiny BiT[h. I hope this group or whatever group decides to release a CFW the best and I hope that they continue their work.

Totally!!!

I agree with this guy. Do any of you know how to produce custom firmware? Don't you think there would be a FEW issues with reverse engineering a firmware that you've never tried to reverse before? Give these guys a break and let them try without all of the flaming. You kids are just annoying with all of the impatience, selfishness, and utter stupidity that you've been spouting all over the net. I can almost guarantee you that that's the reason that DA is delaying making a new CFW, because half of you are morons about it. Be satisfied with what you have. After all, like this dude said, it's all free. The developers don't HAVE to do this. It's their hobby. I understand that this may be fake, I'm not saying that it's not, I'm just saying, give people a chance. If they release a CFW and it's good...awesome. If not. Oh well. BTW: I'm not trying to offend any of you I'm just saying, use some dam|\| restraint.

keep it up

Halo theme going in the back while there shuting all these KID critics mouths. keep up the work fellas fake or real WHO gives a shiiiiiiii!? your gettin yourselves that 15 minutes o fame...

FAKE

I've done a video with the real 6.00 firmware and its proof this is fake. I still don't believe even after seeing my video people think MACK's CFW is real.... Some people are so gullible.

hush child

erm.. just sit tight and wait for dax nabs. or believe all the hype and flap around like aimless nobs every time some tit on the qj staff mentions CFW - your chioce.

Who cares?!

Hey guys... who cares if this is fake or not? We have nothing anyway so who cares?! Until something is out we have nothing to talk about...

Still think its FAKE!!!!

Hod85 is right, under the system update it should have asked for the option to "Update via Internet" or "Update from Storage device"

This is nothing more than a fake.

These guys talk about so called drivers which are there to begin with, making a custom firmware is mostly a matter of patching the various checks performed by the kernel. They claim their firmware cannot run games meant for firmware revisions higher than 3.51, yet they claim to be running the 6.00 kernel, but the game keys should all be in mesg_led.prx (including the 5.55 keys) which is part of the kernel to begin with. They also never released a thing all they seem to be able to do is to make fake vids. Of course this is obviously a fake and I always had a hard time understanding why people would waste their time making pointless fake videos. I guess those people and I are just another league or so it seems. People should stop spreading rumours and only believe what is real and proven.

Yeah

I agree with you b-k24, that's why I used the word "majority" instead of "entirety."
