PSP Hackers...

Firstly...i hate you.

anywho, i just got one and i was at work and we were having a discussion at why the psp games have completely dried up and its down to hackers. devs made some awesome games, sold a few thousand copies and everyone else just downloaded it for free, hence why there are no good games around anymore (resistance the example recently)

i know there are some awesome releases coming up, but hackers pretty much killed a huge developing community for the psp.

anyway, just my rant, anyone who ever illegally downloaded a game, burn in hell :)

Burn I shall ;)

Not much. I play games alot, I just dont play alot of games ;)

The only way too stop hackers from killing a online is sony gives a code that can only be used 1 time for real people who buy the games and sony knows the codes they give out so hackers cant make fake ones

I don't hate them but I don't support them either. I just hope that at some point they understand they are killing the gaming industry. I hope its not too late when they realize this.ForsakenWicked

While it may be quite a time away its almost certain that the next gen consoles and handhelds Sony and Nintendo have suffered quite a bit and I doubt they'll let this situation escalate again.

PSX games are better than PSP games. It's sad but true.

In Asian countries people's minimum wage is around $100-200 a month. How would you expect them to buy a $50 game. Regardless of piracy, Sony is still actually making a lot of money by selling consoles to people who without piracy wouldn't be interested in buying a PSP or any other gaming system.

[QUOTE="ForsakenWicked"] Gaming is not a need. If you can't afford games, you don't need to buy a console or handhelds.ForsakenWicked

Well, knockoff consoles do originate in Asia so I'm pretty sure if they're desperate enough they'll get one.

Did you ever think that people put customfirmware aka "hack" their PSP for other reasons than to steal games? I personally did it for a number of reasons ranging from fun homebrew games to playing my all time favorite PSX games on the go THAT I OWN. The fact is that the people who do these hacks mostly frown upon illegally downloading games. They just provide a means for people to do more with their PSP than it normally allows. I have bought a number of PSP games and ripped them to my computer so i dont have to carry the clunky UMD's around. I don't support piracy but i do support custom firmware it allows many good things to come to the PSP community.

I am also against piracy. But here in Asia when buying a PSP the unit will be automatically installed with CFW bundled with accessories, memory card and 5 downloaded games depending on the size of the memory.

This is why we prefer a hacked PSP

• Games are easily downloaded at the net for free.
• Downloaded games are cheap about $1/game. While, originals almost cost as much as PS3 games. I rather buy a PS3 game.
• In some Asian countries games are limited and left hanging without support for both console and game developers.

I have a PS3 and have plenty of original games with it. In addition original games are an investment its not a waste of money. Moreover this PS3 thing has not yet exploited by hackers that is why its sales are slow compared to Xbox360's. In Asia PS3's are outsold by Xbox 360's bundled with 15 to 25 pirated games with it which makes it a great buy for penny pinchers.(a great help for console developer)

And please don't deprive the poor people on playing video games in anyway. Just because they can't afford for consoles and games then they should stop; and work instead to earn for a living. Every people has the right to be entertained in anyway and that includes gaming. If hackers did not exploit game machines then game piracy does not exist.

No, it's down to pirates.

lewisg1212

No. Pirates did it. Hackers didn't tell everyone to go download the games. In fact, almost all the PSP hackers are against piracy.

I don't know how much more clear we could make this. Read the stickied threads. Read the forum header. Discussion of these things is strictly forbidden. Admission that you have done these things, promotion of the activities, and especially linking to material WILL result in a suspension if not a permanent ban from the site.
