PSP Homebrew Weekend Warrior - Image 1


Official firmware 5.55 started rearing its head recently with reports of new PSP games coming with it and requiring gamers to update in order to play them. It seems the G.I. Joe game is the first US-release title to carry it, although the upcoming Shin Megami Tensei: Persona is reportedly carrying the update as well. So far, we haven't seen any official announcements from Sony, and neither have we heard anything from the usual firmware-breaking teams. Hopefully this changes soon.

Anyway, on to the recap!

If someone can dump 5.55...

Shouldn't we be able to redirect flash files from ofw 5.55 flash to our ms/cfw PSPs through a EBOOT and prx like rco patcher to avoid the hassle of downgrading for cfw and the complete stop of new games to those who are cfwe?
