Is that it then from Sony on the PSP? It seems to be since the fact that we are hardly seeing any future firmware updates and the fact that they are doing nothing to stop homebrew.

So what was the last update? I think it was 3.95, many of us are waiting for the big number 4.0 but when will it be released....after a long time. Then there is the features in the updates, when was the last time we saw a good worthwile feature. It was Skype and that was only available to PSP Slim users, although homebrew developer Fanjita has been working on something called Furikup which seems to be showing no sign of future updates. EDIT: Forgot to mention that Custom Firmware, what do you think Dark_Alex should do, in my opinion he should start developing his own firmware based off Sony's firmware. But then again you would get people complaining that it will never come out and it has many bugs etc.

What is Sony doing to stop homebrew on PSP, not much. As newer PSP models come out they have newer revised motherboards to stop the making of Pandora batteries and such but that is the only thing which they are doing to stop homebrew. I am not being anti-homebrew here but the fact that Custom Firmware is sooo much better and has much more benefits, many reasons why people buy PSP's are for homebrew and the flexibility of it.

Well, that's the end of my first May article.

Hello again people,

As many of you know that the PSP Slim has been released all around the world and many people are loving it. The Slim has already been hacked to run Custom Firmware and Homebrew. But there is one thing it lacks which is a 1.50 Kernel Addon for CFW's . Many new homebrew applications come out everyday and most of them don't even work on the Slim which is no good because many of us bought a Slim for the new features it holds. To run a 1.50 App, you need to use eLoader which for some unknown reason does not work for me. I have 2 PSP's, one Fat and the other Slim, for me to run my old 1.50 games like Falling Sand and Lemonade Stand I have to use my phat PSP which I don't like using because you have to press hard on the buttons. I wonder if somebody could create a converter then everybody would be happy and nobody would be angry because of applications not working. So a SHOUT to all dev's out there, make all your newer Apps compatible for the PSP Slim. You will make the scene even happier.

Thanks for reading guys, sorry if it's a bit harsh but I am trying to a prove a major point.

Hello,

It's pretty obvious that Sony have gone mad with the PSP. Lately as you may know, Sony have released their Go! Messnger service which is good if it were to work! Yesterday I signed up and when I went to press Confirm, a HTTP 500 Error came up and I got no Confirmation e-mail, so later on the day I tried again and this the Congratulations page came up and I managed to get a Confirmation e-mail as well telling me everything was working. But then I went to sign in on my PSP and guess what message it gave me, Account Verification Failed. Useless to say the least, but neverthless I did manage to get it working this morning and had a chat with some of my friends using IM. One thing I have also noticed is that they say it is only available in Europe and when it gave me the Select Country List it came up with parts of the world which weren't even in Europe. Now this leads me on to another question, why don't Sony release their own SDK like Apple will be doing soon to allow applications made for the PSP, I mean come on, on the Messenger it says something like Thai Open Source, why don't they release the Source.

Oh well that's the end of my rant!

Hello guys,

This is my first ever article so please bear with me if you see any mistakes. Right so for the past few weeks the PSP Scene seems to be too damn quiet. The only things we have been seeing are Dark Alex's Custom Firmwares and old homebrew apps which have not been finished like Portal etc. If you have'nt realised by now, we haven't seen an update in Custom Firmware Extender for 3.80/3.90, AhMan has left the scene for good, not many plugins are being made or converted for the new CFW's. Also the fact that man homebrew developers have made some good applications like XMP and never finished it, games are also as bad because we hardly see any good games come out, we might get a couple like Pulse and others. But today we don't even see Burnout. The Sony PSP Store for the UK is absolutely attrocious and hardly seen any good things.

So here we are then: why is the homebrew scene near to dead, because of the above

Thanks for reading guys!
