Soywiz＇s Psp Emulator Git (2012/11/29) is compiled. Soywiz＇s Psp Emulator is a PlayStation Portable (PSP) emulator, emulator for windows. This emulator born as a proof of concept of an emulator made in D. Now it's getting more and more compatible with homebrew, and gaining in features and speed. The emulator was based in it's first version on great Noxa's C# pspplayer emulator.

Soywiz＇s Psp Emulator Git Changelog:
* - Refactorings on MipsAssembler to support vrot
- Implemented vfpu instructions: vrot, vmidt, vmzero, vmone, vmmov, vmmul
* - Reimplemented Vfpu lv.q
* - Reimplemented vfpu: sv.q
- Some cleanups
- Added translation for "Utils: Enable &Ast optimizations"
- Fixed forever-loop test that prevented from running all tests
- Fixed some tests
* - Add menu option to enable AstOptimizations (enabled by default)

- Changed the system to load libraries from x86/x64 folder

PlayStop Network, the homebrew version of PSN

November 29th, 2012, 15:04 Posted By: wraggster

While I generally don’t talk about homebrew apps here, this one got my attention.



The PlayStop Network allows you to download VHBL and CEF homebrews, ready to be transferred to your Vita with not much hassle. Similar to PSN, only on your PC.



But downloading homebrews is not the main feature, as you can also chat with people using this app, there is also a nice ban feature for the admins, so be sure to file a report if anyone bothers you.

This is nothing new, we have seen other apps doing the same, including my own work (VHBL Manager), but the chat ability is a really nice addition none of the other apps have done.

The app has been renamed from PSV Downloader Optimised to PlayStop Network, and has been updated to 1.01, if you want to try it out, you can download it here.

Top 10 Games that need to come to the Vita

November 29th, 2012, 15:02 Posted By: wraggster

The Vita has been rapidly growing its triple AAA franchises with the likes of Uncharted, Mortal Kombat, and Need For Speed to name a few.



Vita sales are hitting all time lows mostly because its lack of bigger franchises. Bioshock and Killzone are coming however other than that there hasn’t been much announced. We are almost a year into the Vitas life cycle, so bigger games are around the corner.

Here are the top 10 franchises I think need to come to the Vita and the possibility of those happening.



10. Fallout



Sony promised console quality on the go, but to be honest we haven’t seen much that was close in content besides this years Persona 4; a PS2 game. Nothing would fit the Vita better than the expansive, post apocalyptic world, free roaming of Fallout. The Vita would fit nice with the Fallout controls and the Vita could turn its self into a working PipBoy perfectly with its huge touch screen. Fallout is so immersive with its story, game play and sound; something the Vita needs. Now we haven’t seen Bethesda touch the mobile market much so its a long shot here. The Vita however needs a game with a lot of content for those of us that don’t like the “bite sized” attitude a lot of these developers have now towards Vita games. An 120hr+ campaign would sure keep us immersed for a long time, instead of short bursts of levels like we saw with Unit 13 or with Black Ops: Declassified. Fallout 4 is most likely on its way, one can only hope.

9. Tomb Raider



The new Tomb Raider reboot looks promising, touching on everything making it hopefully better. It hasn’t been announced for the Vita which is surprising since we saw Tomb Raider games launch alongside their console counterparts on the PSP. Tomb Raider would fit well on the Vita giving both male and even female gamers a great game to play. The Tomb Raider games on the PSP are a testament that Lara can go mobile and still be as fantastic as her console counterpart. Earlier we saw Uncharted: Golden Abyss which is similar to the Tomb Raider franchise, that game was top notch and an absolute blast to play. Seeing our favorite heroine on the beautiful Vita OLED screen would sure sell consoles and win fans.

8. SPLINTERCELL



If there is one thing we can agree on, its that the Vita is lacking a great stealth game. Splinter cell (even Hitman) would be a fantastic addition to the Vita’s lineup. A Vita version of the new Splinter cell : Blacklisted was not announced but there may be another opportunity to launch alongside the new Splinter Cell movie staring Tom Hardy(Bane). The 3DS version of Splinter Cell proved that Sam Fisher is a great addition to a mobile platform. If it can be done on the 3DS, it can be even better on the Vita. Nothing feels better than sneaking up on an enemy, even Splinter Cell Essentials still feels great on the Vita. If they could bring Sam to the Vita with full Co-op it would sure be a success. It would offer hardcore gamers something to play.

7. KINGDOM HEARTS



Kingdom Hearts is a gigantic franchise that is popular world wide both from kids to adults. The iconic story and Disney characters would do really well on the Vita. Japans sales of the Vita are slacking, Kingdom Hears could be the answer. Birth by Sleep did well on the PSP, but with the Vitas touch screen and more comfortable controls it would be a better experience. Birth by Sleep really boosted the PSP, selling 1.27 million copies worldwide as of November 2010, receiving positive comments by video game publications. Kingdom Hearts is just something that is a must on the Vita.

6. BORDERLANDS



Borderlands is huge, offering large amounts of content and a definitive co-op experience. Hardcore console gamers would be highly attracted to Borderlands 2 on the go. The cell shaded graphics would not be difficult either on the Vita if optimized right. Borderlands 2 on Vita isn’t out of the question in terms of possibility either, we might actually see it become a reality soon. According to Gearbox President Randy Pitchford he wants Borderlands 2 on the Vita but needs help, as gearbox cant do it all and would need another trusted developer to take it on. Pitchford also fantasized about cloud saving between PlayStation 3 and Vita versions of Borderlands 2, and says he’ll be meeting with Sony again soon. Playing Borderlands at home and then picking up where you left off would be something unique, and definitely give new meaning to going mobile.

5. Battlefield



With this years lack luster Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified, gamers felt that it was rushed and just bland. Black Ops: Declassified was really not accepted widely, and sits on Metacritic with a 32%. The Vita still needs a better FPS, and what better franchise to do so than the Battlefield series. EA’s Frostbite 2 engine would be a delightful treat for the Vita, and if they could pull of full vehicle large scale online it would be a game changer. EA has already dove into the mobile market before with big franchise releases on iOS such as Battlefield: Bad Company 2. We already know that Battlefield 4 is on the way thanks to the beta offer for those who preordered Medal of Honor so could we see a Vita version? EA surely wont sit back and let COD dominate another market in addition to consoles, so its a possibility.

4. STARWARS



Star Wars games were highly popular on the PSP especially with the multiple Battlefront releases. Star Wars is a great franchise with a lot to offer for the Vita if executed right. Imagine Knights of the Old Republic, a new Bounty Hunter, Jedi Outcasts or even a new Xwing game on the Vita. Even a new Star Wars Battlefront game that is optimized for the Vita would be fantastic now that the Vita has two thumbsticks. The gameplay of Battlefront fits an “on the go experience” too. Now with the new Disney buy out of Lucasarts we will most likely see some new Star Wars games. The new movies coming out would also get older fans back in the franchise, while bringing in a newer younger audience so if Sony had a new Vita game or bundle, it would force push the sales up. We’ve yet to see a big Sci Fi game on the Vita; Star Wars should be it.

3. Monster Hunter



Sony didn’t make a move on one of the biggest selling PSP franchises with Monster Hunter 3 which is now only going to be coming to 3DS and Wii U. Sony owes Vita users a Monster Hunter game. Monster Hunter needs to be on the Vita if it wants a strong reason to keep its footing against the 3DS. Monster Hunter Freedom 2 on the PSP sold millions of copies and had high praise. Now, that the Vita has more power it wouldn’t be too hard to out do the successful Monster Hunter games that have been released.

2. God Of War



The king of PSP needs to come to the Vita unarguably. God of War is a hardcore system seller and a flagship franchise for Sony. There hasn’t been a Sony device to not have Kratos on it since the launch of the first game back on the PS2. It would be pretty ignorant to start now and not to bring Kratos over to the Vita. The Vita still has a lot of raw power untapped so a full fledged PS3 quality Kratos adventure would suite well. Sony most likely has one in development; probably for next holiday season with a new Vita bundle? Who knows, but God Of War has to come to the Vita.

1. Grand Theft Auto



Grand Theft Auto offers the perfect blend of driving, shooting, story and all around fun, something that would shock life into the Vitas library. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Liberty City Stories were great on the PSP but were lacking huge in the graphics department and controls. One thumbstick just didn’t feel right and really took away from the experience but guess what? The Vita now has two! The Grand Theft Auto experience would be exceptionally huge, more so if Rockstar handles it. Need for Speed Most Wanted, Assassins Creed and Gravity Rush proved that huge open worlds can be done on the Vita, and done well but imagine if the veterans of Rockstar had a shot at it. Grand Theft Auto fits well on mobile devices, giving users the chance to do missions if they want or if they don’t have time, to simply just roam around. Its a perfect fit of content and bite sized gaming. Rockstar already said that no consoles are ruled out, but they just need to be told to do so and they’ll do it. It’s up to Sony, hopefully they take action and bring a popular series to the Vita. A survey was floating around awhile ago if users would buy GTA V and like the idea of Cross Buy and getting it for free with PS Plus. So could Sony already be ahead of the game and have something up their sleeve? Let’s hope so.

That’s only some of the many, many franchises that would be great on the Vita. Lets hope we can see some of these become a reality. What are some major game franchises you would like to see come to the Vita in the coming years? Let me know in the comments!

Dragon Age 3 bound for next-gen platforms, claims EA dev CV

November 29th, 2012, 00:01 Posted By: wraggster

Dragon Age 3 could be in the works for Sony and Microsoft's next generation consoles, if details found in an EA developer's CV turns out to be accurate.
According to a statement in the CV of EA Shanghai level designer Tao Gu, the "scope of the DAIII has been chaged, which will target next gen platform and will be postpone [sic] to 2014."Gu made contributions to Dragon Age 3 earlier this year, according to the Kotaku report.
The site speculates that the 'postponed' release Gu speaks of could be related to alleged rumours of the game having been shifted internally from a fiscal 2013 release (ending March 31, 2013) to a fiscal 2014 - which would fall in line with the late calendar 2013 release that was officially announced.
More intriguing, however, is the game's supposed next-gen destination. No platforms were mentioned in the official announcement, which supports the theory that EA could be targeting unannounced platforms.
But the game was confirmed to be built on DICE's Frostbite 2 tech - the same engine which EAhas said on record "was built for the next generation" - in the words of EA Games head, Patrick Soderlund.
BioWare promises that the game will combine "the storytelling legacy BioWare is known for, with deep RPG gameplay, all on a brand new RPG game engine underpinned by EA's critically-acclaimed Frostbite 2 technology".
BioWare Edmonton general manager Aaryn Flynn at the time of the announcement, "With Dragon Age 3: Inquisition, we want to give fans what they're asking for - a great story with choices that matter, a massive world to explore, deep customization and combat that is both tactical and visceral."

Bungie's Destiny - more details leak

November 28th, 2012, 23:42 Posted By: wraggster

A new info leak has provided more detail’s about Bungie’s secretive Destiny game.
And furthermore, they appear to have been inadvertently confirmed by the studio itself.
IGN received details of the game via a leaked document from an advertising agency.
“Our story begins seven hundred years from now in the Last City on Earth, in a Solar System littered with the ruins of man’s Golden Age,” it reads. “A massive, mysterious alien ship hangs overhead like a second Moon. No one knows where it came from or what it’s here for, but only that it’s our protector.
“Meanwhile, strange, alien monsters creep in from the edge of the universe, determined to take Earth and the Last City. We are young ‘knights’ tasked with defending the remains of humanity, discovering the source of these monsters and – eventually – overcoming it.”
The information adds that the game is specifically designed to “create a universe as deep, tangible and relatable as that of the Star Wars franchise” that is accessible to a wider market than simply the shooter hardcore.
And if there was any doubt of its authenticity, the leak was seemingly confirmed by Bungie itself with a post on its website.
“Go ahead. Take a peek. It’s alright,” the studio said. “We weren't quite ready, but we will be soon, and we can’t wait to finally show you what we've really been up to. Stick around, we haven’t even started yet.”
The big question now remains whether or not Destiny will indeed be an MMO as has been previously rumoured.
Additional leaked imagery also seems to question the detailed release schedule revealed as part of a lawsuitearlier this year. Early promo material for the game lists both Xbox and PS3 as launch platforms – conflicting with news that the game would initially be an Xbox exclusive.

Jpcsp SVN r2875

November 28th, 2012, 15:25 Posted By: wraggster

via http://www.emucr.com/

Jpcsp SVN r2875 is compiled. JPCSP is the most advanced PlayStation Portable(PSP) emulator, allowing you to play your PSP games on a PC. Even though Jpcsp is written in Java, it can already reach 100% PSP speed on a lot of commercial games... and the emulator performance is constantly increasing. Jpcsp takes full advantage of dual-core processors, matching the PSP dual-core architecture. Even a quad-core can give a small performance improvement by leaving free CPU cores for the Java JIT Compiler and the graphics cache.

Jpcsp SVN changelog:
r2875
Small fixes to avoid OpenGL errors (detected by the new CheckErrorsProxy).
---------------------
r2874
Implemented sceUtilitySavedata with mode MODE_ERASESECURE. Small fix in PSF reading to avoid NullPointerException.
---------------------
r2873
Added possibility to check for OpenGL errors after each OpenGL/lwjgl call. This has to be enabled by changing RenderingEngineFactory.enableCheckErrorsProxy = true;
---------------------
r2872
Improved support for Chinese gb3s1518.bwfon font: corrected values returned by sceFontGetCharInfo.

3k3y status update...

November 28th, 2012, 14:57 Posted By: wraggster

[source: 3k3y.com] Final hardware verification will start this week. All parts have been tested on development boards so no surprises are anticipated. While built-in disk ripping does work, it is too slow to be practical and will not be present. There is another way which is much faster and can most likely be delivered in a future software update, but we will not have time to verify this before launch. So we decided to remove built-in disk ripping from the feature list and put it on the WIP list. We have designed and completed software and a add-on board for connecting a PS3 drive to a PC via USB in order to dump games. This add-on board will be a part of the 3k3y kit.

Battlefield 3 patch improves PS3 input lag, audio stability

November 27th, 2012, 00:10 Posted By: wraggster

DICE has detailed a new Battlefield 3 patch which should improve input lag and audio dropouts reported by some PS3 players since the game launched last year.
"We have been busy making some welcome fixes for our PlayStation 3 players, fine tuning a lot of weapons based on your feedback, and tweaking some gameplay mechanics," the studio said.The "essential multiplayer update", which is detailed in full below, goes live tomorrow, November 27 on consoles, and no later than December 4 on PC.

• Addressed "input lag" on PS3: If you have been experiencing "input lag" playing Battlefield 3 on PlayStation 3, we now believe we have significantly improved this situation for all players.
• Improved audio stability on PS3: The audio dropouts reported by some PlayStation 3 gamers playing Battlefield 3 should now be fixed for the majority of players.
• Weapons balancing: Based on detailed community feedback and data analysis we have made some minor weapon tweaks to recoil and accuracy. The goal of these tweaks, and the overall goal in Battlefield 3, is to give each weapon a unique feel and competitive performance to other weapons of a similar type.
• M416: First shot and horizontal recoil slightly increased. This should make the choice between M16 and M416 more interesting again.
• L85A2: Slightly reduced horizontal recoil.
• AUG: first shot recoil slightly to increase weapon controllability.
• FAMAS: Slightly reduced horizontal recoil.
• G53: Vertical recoil reduced to make this weapon more controllable.
• QBZ-95B: Slightly reduced horizontal recoil.
• LSAT: Hip accuracy has been increased to highlight the weapon's role as a highly mobile LMG.
• Type88 LMG: Recoil has been decreased to make it a viable option when compared to the M249.
• M5K: Increased horizontal recoil and decreased vertical recoil to focus this weapon as a high damage, low control PDW.
• UMP45: Decreased fully automatic fire to differentiate this weapon from the PP2000.
• MP412: Increased its accuracy to better distinguish it from the .44 Magnum.
• M26: Increased aimed accuracy to be in line with the other shotguns.
• Weapons bug fixes: Fixed the MTAR's range not being correctly reduced when equipped with the sound suppressor.
• Fixed a bug where suppressive fire had reduced effect on the M16 and M5K when compared with other weapons.
• Fixed a bug where the M5K's Flash Suppressor had no effect on accuracy.
• Fixed the L86A2 Heavy Barrel's hip accuracy penalty being far larger than other weapons.
• Fixed an issue with the Mk3 shotgun's ACOG being low resolution.
• M-COM disarm fix: Fixed an issue where M-COM stations couldn't be disarmed from the left side while standing up.
• Alborz Mountains rock fix: Rocks and stones collision tweaked on Armored Kill maps. Players should no longer be able to exploit a collision issue that allowed them to hide inside rock formations.
• Operation Shield/Alborz Mountains Tank Superiority area fix: Tank Superiority visual combat areas fixed on Operation Shield and Alborz Mountains. There was earlier a 10×10 meter patch on the mountain that became out of combat for US. This was technically already fixed server side, however this will update the actual visuals to be correct.
• Death Valley collision fix: Collision tweaked on the railroad tunnel roof. This fix prevents players from being able to hide inside the railroad tunnel roof.
• Sharqi Squad Rush spawn fix: Players would sometimes spawn out of combat if spawning shortly after the first M-COM explodes on Squad Rush on Sharqi Peninsula. With this fix, spawn points have been moved back to prevent this from happening.
• Alborz Mountains Squad Rush fix: Cameras were incorrect in the spawn menu, pointing to old locations and not where you would actually spawn in. This has now been fixed.
• Gunship balancing changes: We have now removed the gunship FLIR view (the position is still available, just not the black/white view) and decreased the damage radius of cannon explosions. This was done because of balancing reasons. Previously it was too easy for the gunner to get visual contact on enemy soldiers on the maps, and the splash damage is reduced to make it harder to kill infantry from the cannon seat.
• Mobile Artillery spawn bug fixed: Two players can no longer spawn into the Mobile Artillery. This was a spawn-in-menu bug on the Operation Shield map which has now been fixed.
• Tweaked hard to get medals: Looking at the persistence system, we could see that a number of the hard to get medals were actually too hard to achieve (in our opinion based on our intended design). While we never meant for all medals to have an equal distribution, the hardest ones were still intended to be more achievable than they have proven to be so far. Therefore, we have slightly decreased the prerequisites to achieve a number of the hardest to get medals in the game. One positive side effect (if you like playing Recon) is that we will likely see a slight bump in the Recon kit's average Score Per Minute overall.

PPSSPP v0.31 released - PSP Emulator for Android/Windows

November 26th, 2012, 20:19 Posted By: wraggster

PPSSPP is written in C++, and translates PSP CPU instructions directly into optimized x86, x64 and (soon) ARM machine code, using an efficient JIT compiler.
PPSSPP can thus run on quite low-spec hardware, including stronger Android phones and tablets, as long as there's support for OpenGL ES 2.0.

Many fixes, more games playable

Progress has been rapid, much thanks to several new contributors! As usual, see the downloads page for the new version, and look at the compatibility list.

OpenBOR v3.0 Build 3732

November 26th, 2012, 14:11 Posted By: wraggster

The guys over at Lavalit have released a new version of the beats of rage clone for the Dreamcast, Dingoo, PSP, Linux, Windows, GP2x, Nintendo Wii and Wiz.

OpenBOR is a continuation of the Beats Of Rage 2D game [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]engine[/COLOR][/COLOR], which was originally
created by the wonderful folks over at http://www.senileteam.com.

In 2004, Senile Team released Beats of Rage, a free beat-'em-up for DOS inspired
by SEGA's Streets of Rage series and using sprites from SNK Playmore's King of
Fighters series. The game spread only by word of mouth, but it nonetheless
amassed popularity very quickly. Senile Team soon released an edit pack allowing
anyone interested to create a mod for the BOR engine.
In 2005, Kirby2000 asked Senile Team to open the source code to BOR. They
agreed, and OpenBOR was born. Development on the engine was continued by the
community, and still is to this day.

Heres whats new:

r3732 | utunnels | 2012-11-24 18:21:42 -0500 (Sat, 24 Nov 2012) | 1 line
Changed paths:

Eleganz: POC Manager by Kakaroto

November 26th, 2012, 14:05 Posted By: wraggster

Kakaroto release a Proof Of Concept to finish a manager by us. Citation: Hello everyone, Last year in January, I decided to have a little fun by developing a homebrew libraries from EFL . My choice was a Manager ... Wholesale to replace the XMB. This went pretty well and the development was fast with very good API and opportunities EFL libraries. However, having other obligations, I could go on ... again, it was a bit slow and without hardware acceleration properly, it would not have been up to my expectations, so I put the side project. Several months later, in September, thanks to the work of gzorin , we finally got an implementation GL functional, benefiting applications EFL - the latter benefiting finally hardware acceleration. My manager was much better! But there were a few little things to finish and with no time I again set aside. Today I decided to publish this application, * as is * for all to enjoy! This means that it is not fully functional, some bugs may persist here and there, but people can use it and have fun with. Most importantly, it will serve four purposes: - Can be waking PS3 homebrew scene dying - Be a good "exercise for the community," as it is to finish - Being a good example of what can be done with EFL - Push the non- developers to make themes for EFL application I submit Eleganz! A Manager elegant! A little app that allows you to install pkg files and launch your games directly from it.
i published my application both on github and the git of ps3dev. And you can also download a pre-compiled pkg for your PS3 and have fun with. few important points (features, limitations and bugs): - The user interface is fully customizable with themes. - The installation files pkg is locally in its own data directory (it will not be visible in the XMB real, unless someone does a "reverse" the format of the database) - Do not start the game (that is, do you use as a reference ps3load maybe ...) - The current theme lack of appropriate images for the progress bar (default theme is used exquisite/E17) - The system hangs for a few milliseconds when it tries to load the background image of a game (can be solved if you put up a pthread library and threading support in EFL) - Apparently when you plant leaves (bug) The application comes with two themes a dark theme and a light. I prefer the dark, so I chose the default (do not mind the gray background in the video, it was just for testing). I wrote the user interface for the theme (Edje files) while opium designed the graphics. The EFL theme engine is extremely powerful, so hopefully I'll see tons of themes happen. And I'm not talking about "Change images" theme, I want real issues, where the interface is different, XMB vertical one, a circular theme with a 3D perspective / depth for icons, background dynamic / mobile, etc ... You can learn about the file format. edj /. edc here and do not forget check the wiki on the EDC . I hope to see the community take part and have fun with. Well, now, have fun, and send me your patches! I wait: D Kakaroto ps: I forgot to say that the rules / naming conventions etc. .. EDC files are explained here . If a file. Edj is malformed, it will be ignored and will not be displayed on the user interface. pps: You can install EFL in Windows and have access to edje_cc to compile your. edc by. edj ... ppps: * * Damn, I always forget things .. I said that Eleganz works fine on PC, I've done all my development on it (the screens shown are for Linux), * then * I tried it on PS3 and it worked .. Therefore the development of themes, it should be fairly easy to test without even needing a PS3. archive contains the sources and the pkg. eleganz Official website: kakaroto.homelinux.net

Vita: Hello World on OFW 2.0 by Frostegater (PSP emu)

November 26th, 2012, 13:49 Posted By: wraggster

For those of you worried that Sony might one day have a magic patch for all psp usermode exploits, frostegater has good news for you: Vita’s firmware 2.0 still has some holes in the PSP emu (screenshot below).





He proves it with a typical Hello world running inside the psp emulator of the Vita. It’s no surprise, as I mentioned before we still have dozens of game exploits available on the psp (and those are compatible with the psp emu on the Vita) – lots of which, I need to mention, were found by frostegater himself -, but it’s good to confirm that these undisclosed usermode exploits still run even after a release of a new Vita firmware.

More impressive is the fact that the firmware was released only a few hours ago, and yet hackers had the time to install it, test the exploit, take pictures, upload them, etc…

The vita OFW 2.0 patches several user mode exploits we released here at wololo.net over the past few months. It is very likely that it also patches Total_Noob’s Kernel exploit in the psp emu, which would mean we are back to user mode exploits (understand: VHBL) for a little while, but the status of the Kernel exploit still needs to be confirmed (although early tests tell us it’s been patched too).

Working PSP Kernel Exploit on Vita 2.0! Future releases….

November 26th, 2012, 13:48 Posted By: wraggster

Some very good news, Frostegater has a working PSP kernel exploit on the new Vita firmware 2.0!



With the recent firmware update issued for the Playstation Vita all of the recent exploits that have been released were patched including the recent Urbanix, Mad Blocker and Gravity Crash exploits for 1.81. That update also brought along some concerns as to whether Sony had permanently patched the method used to running Total_Noobs popular TN-C eCFW. Now, some new developments have been made not long after the new Vita firmware 2.0 update in addition to the Hello World featured on Wololo’s article.

Developer Frostegater already has a working pspemu kernel exploit, on the latest Vita 2.0 official firmware update (this was first announced by TheZ yesterday, and Wololo got confirmation directly from Frostegater today). This proves that Sony hasn’t patched all vectors to run eCFW, and means that there is a future for more exploit releases especially for those who have updated. Frostgater is already hard at work at trying to port TN-C to this new kernel exploit.

So if you updated and lost yours or simply missed all of the chances that were present over the last few months, check back as your future looks very bright for an exploit release that can run eCFW on the 2.0 Vita firmware update. If you have not already gotten an exploit and are holding out on a lower firmware its probably best to update, but that’s a personal decision you’ll have to make.

On a side note, for those who have asked, we confirmed Open CMA still works on firmwares lower than 2.00 and everything should be working normally with your exploits.

Playstation Mobile, A success or failure?

November 26th, 2012, 13:47 Posted By: wraggster

The Playstation Mobile Dev toolkit Beta has closed quite a long time ago, by this time I expected that there would have been loads of new Indie games and apps but today when I switched over to my US account after updating to 2.00, I saw that not many apps are available. I feel that Sony has made a BIG mistake by making PSM a paid service and for forcing approval to publish.





I saw more apps coming out when the toolkit was in Open Beta. With the Open Beta, all people had equal access to the toolkit and could do whatever they wanted, but with the closed version, very few people have the time and money to sign up and develop apps for PSN for which they can be sure that the app will be approved



The PSM was the perfect idea, the ability to access a lot of the abilities available on the Vita yet ensure that there were no piracy but, then Sony made the careless mistake of forcing India devs to pay $100 for the toolkit!

Sony should have kept it like J2ME for smartphones, download it anywhere and just install but they decided to keep the system in their control, to make sure that they earned as much money as possible. During the open beta, we saw some very creative apps ,

a Remote Desktop application, an all region Playstation store ‘hack’, the cool games even the demos like the flight simulator, just imagine how much more the Vita would sell if PSM was open, developers would want to buy a Vita so that they could make software for it, we would get our homebrew, Sony would get their sales.

So, I feel that Sony has wasted a perfectly good idea by making PSM a paid service. What do you think? Post your opinion here
