First Poest!!



YAY

you shouldn't hack on online games anyway.

Didn't Dark Alex have a "fix" or work-around for the PSN ... or does that:



1. Not work any more ?



2. Not work on GEN ?

users either don't buy anything or barely buy anything at all or buy a bunch but with CFW you get the same thing if you buy it or not. Dumb move by Sony to block out potential customers which by blocking won't affect them in any other way but giving them the only option to get a game which is to pirate it.

Was it PSN's policy to not let anyone in PSN if they weren't fully updated, like if the current version was 6.00, did 5.50 OFW users have to update to 6.00 OFW to access? I've never used PSN before, so I need to ask.



Because it would indeed be a move to block CFW if access always required the latest. But if it didn't, then it's not a move to screw CFW, since 5.50 GEN-B had access well into 6.00/6.10's existence.

Block the people with hacked systems from actually buying games. That way you force them to pirate.

And I was really looking forward to your games, sony. Not a smart move.

it was just 3 days ago i was playing motorstorm artic edge.

now i cant play resistance.

o well. im finna go make a sandwhich :)

yup no more motorstorm..



"A system software update for the PSP system is required.

For update methods refer to the instructions for the PSP system."



damn.



oh well theres always fifa 10 for online play.

You have to laugh really. On one hand you have PSN, the UK version of which has about 20 PSP games on it. On the other you have CFW, which lets you play a back catalogue of hundreds. So really, who cares?



The PS3 can still get online, so unless you need to activate the title from the PSP, it's not much of a block for those who own both.



I have to say that by shutting out CFW you only encourage piracy. Block online play by all means, but taking away the ability for potential customers to pay developers for their product is just daft.

You guys do realize all sony wants is for CFW users to do is update to OFW, that or to buy a PSP GO? Yeah like that's going to happen.

I didn't even know that. I thought I had to update from 5.50 to use it...

This isn't going to impact me whatsoever. I don't have any games that require PSN to login with, other than Resistance, and I'm bored with that game anyways.



Just use MediaGO and the "Use Version.txt" option in recovery to get on PSN.

I thought so too... changing the version.txt file...



I never use PSN, so I have no clue if that still works or not, might be worth a try though.

.

will use version.txt work to get around this?

What version.txt file will work?

In all the time that the PSP Playstation Store has been around, I've never used it even once.

Does not work.

It does not said they was blocking this cfw on the vid, but they want people to upgrade to 6.10

on the firmware. Some are mandatory, some are not. It's down to Sony to determine which is and which isn't.



It's the same with the PS3 firmware too. The most recent firmware (v3.01) isn't mandatory whereas the latest PSP firmware is.

i bought a pspGo. i like it. it's way smaller in size and doesn't weigh anything, feels great in my pocket. 16gb hd, that's good enough for quite a few songs, videos, and games for me. yeah it feels different, but i got used to it already, doesn't feel weird at all anymore. not saying i'm gonna ditch my M33'd slim, but it does feel more portable and overall better than its predecessor to me. pause the current gameplay to listen to music then go back to the exact same spot without having to load a game save? love it. yeah, m33 has something similar but this version is stable.

Just tried to play the online arena mode for Thexder Neo and got the same message.

This check seems to be from DNAS. Sony built that system dynamically I guess, so they could check what file they ever want to ... maybe just for a checksum
