Updated release from Torch;
Some new UMDs are detecting files in the ms0:/seplugins and ms0:/iso folders and causing problems, even deleting files from these folders.
This plugin will hide these folders in GAME mode so they can't be accessed.
To install, copy cfwblock.prx to ms0:/seplugins and make an entry in game.txt
e.g. ms0:/seplugins/cfwblock.txt 1
This will NOT bypass any anti-ISO protection in games. It is for the protection of YOUR files on YOUR memory stick. Use the original UMD and it will work fine, and your files are also safe.
Quote:
Changelog v1.1
----------------------------------
It does not activate in Homebrew.

In an interview published today on Kikizo, one of Tecmo's most prominent development staff, Keisuke Kikuchi, said that PS3 "worked better" for them in developing the upcoming shooter Quantum Theory - but admits the game is most comparable to Gears of War.
"Initially, the game concept was built around this game being a PC game... the project was altered slightly, and we tested out the graphics and visual presentation on the PS3. And looking at that, we were pretty confident that we were going to be able to display and execute what we wanted to using the power of the PS3."
He explained that the environmental detail from the trailer was something they wanted to push, adding: "we just thought the PS3 worked better for us."
The developer, whose credits include the Fatal Frame series, the PS2 adventure Trapt, and Super Swing Golf, also conceded that his upcoming game shares some DNA with Gears of War, even though it's a PS3-exclusive.
"Simply for the cover system it would [be closest to] Gears of War", he said. But he also stressed it'll offer something new: "We were pretty confident after doing a lot of research on a variety of shooters that we would be able to bring something unique - both visually and gameplay-wise."
Commenting on the gameplay, Kikuchi said: "While strictly speaking this is a kind of third-person action game-shooter, the main play style skews towards the shooter side. We feel we've already been successful in executing action game elements, as in Ninja Gaiden. So it's mainly a third-person shooter."
We've got a tonne of previously unseen screenshots and artwork in the full interview, which looks at THREE upcoming Tecmo titles, so head on over to the feature.

Against all odds, the PlayStation 2 is still hanging around, though it's ailing rapidly. According to Sony though, the PlayStation 3 will last even longer. Much longer.
Speaking with T3 (via Computer and Video Games), Sony representatives said, "PS2 was still going strong after eight years, and with the power the Cell processor provides, not to mention the fact that PS3 is inherently future-proof, we see the PS3 sales curve far outlasting that of PS2."
Meanwhile, most analysts seem to think that new consoles will be hitting in 2011 or 2012. The PlayStation 3 is indeed a powerful console, so it'll be interesting to see if developers can continue unlocking the machine's full potential four or even five years down the road.

From the PCSX2 site:
This has been considered for a long time and after the two teams met,we have come to a merge The new talented coders have already done great work on the emulator and will now be joined by the old PCSX2 team for an even better coding team!
This means that:
1)The PCSX2 - Playground project will be renamed and will from now on be the official PCSX2 project
2)The whole PCSX2 - Playground team will be added to the existing official PCSX2 team
3)The next PCSX2 release will replace the 0.9.4 version and the 0.9.5 beta which we provide will be replaced by new betas after the new release.This means that the current PCSX2-Playground build will not be provided as a download (since it will actually be an older version of the released PCSX2)
4)Our forum structure will be re-organized to match these changes after a new release has been made
On other news,we now host the PCSX2 Mac port made by Zendr0n in our forums here.Head there for the latest compiled build and try it on your Mac!
Many plugin updates,as usual grab them from our downloads section!

Last year Aksys brought Battle Fantasia to North America, but it was only for Xbox 360s here. Strangely, a PS3 version of Battle Fantasia exists - an English version of Battle Fantasia. Europe got it thanks to 505 Games.
Now things have changed. It looks like there is a chance the PS3 version of Battle Fantasia could come to North America in a rather peculiar way. The ESRB re-rated Battle Fantasia as an Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and “PSN via PS3 game”. Huh. So, Aksys is planning to distribute a retail PS3 game as a PlayStation Network download? We’ve seen this happen before with games like Warhawk, Gran Turismo 5: Prologue, and Siren: Blood Curse which unlike the rest of the world was only a PSN download here.

We're starting to think that Capcom has caught word of our frequent nightmares about the inevitable Zombie Apocalypse. (It's going to happen.) Why else would it release a batch of new screens from Resident Evil 5 just as we were about to turn in for the night?
Well, perhaps it's to show off some new, decidedly non-shantytown areas of the game, including a sequence that takes place on boats. (Where the not-zombies can clearly still getcha.) It's a good thing water kills them. Oh wait, that's Gremlins. No, it makes them multiply. We're confused.

I’m still not convinced Persona PSP is a “full remake”, but the extra cutscenes make me want to play it even if it’s an enhanced port. The new videos give Persona, an early PsOne game, much more style.
One thing I wonder is how Persona will be received here if Atlus USA localizes it. Since Persona 3 came out the series has gotten a lot of attention, but the first Persona game is a different beast. You still control a group of high school kids, but the Social Link system and modified Press Turn battles aren’t present. Persona feels more like classic Shin Megami Tensei since you can communicate with demons in battle and dungeons are explored from a first person perspective.
Will fans introduced to Persona on the PS2 be glad to check out a cult classic or will they find the original to be archaic? Also will Atlus USA give us a soundtrack CD as a pre-order bonus? That’s what Japan is getting and it seems like something straight out of the Atlus Spoils goody bag.

Other PlayStation branches are done localizing Patapon 2. Sony Computer Entertainment America may not be quite there yet, but Patapon 2 is marching forward. These screens have a bare amount of English text so we know SCEA is actively working on it.
When will Patapon 2 be ready? Don’t know. Sony hasn’t said when we’re going to unleash an army of Patapon on giant birds. Retailers sing a different song pointing towards a summer release and a possible $10 price increase compared to the first game.

Free access / No double fees: Unlike Xbox Live, there's no annual service fee to access PSN. You also don't have to pay a Netflix subscription (because there's no Netflix!) and have the FREE ability to purchase whatever video content you want! Video content on the go: The PSN's video delivery service allows you to transfer certain types of content between your PS3 and PSP at no additional charge (unless your PSP's battery is in need of ... a charge). Faster download speeds: After a lengthy study, the respected scientists at the MTV Multiplayer labs have proven PSN downloads to be faster than all other current systems. Especially if you're downloading Mega Man 9. Quality HD experiences: The PSN gives you HD content in a reliable way -- there's no waiting for streaming connections like on Xbox Live. Connections which might not ever be made.
Blu-ray and streaming: Streaming is awesome, especially when you use it to watch videos through PS3's web browser! You can also download HD movies from the PlayStation Store or buy them on Blu-ray disc. Relevant new releases: Um, Max Payne is out now on Blu-ray! So, what do you think?

They say there are some things you just can't make up. The accompanying photos, received today from an anonymous tipster who works at one of Sony's distribution centers, are definitely some of them.
What you see are "PS2 consoles" returned to retailers -- such as Best Buy and Walmart -- then subsequently sent to Sony for credit. We're not sure what's more silly: that someone would try to pass off a wooden replica PS2 for return, or that someone would actually take the time to make a wooden PS2 with such detail. The question of "Who would accept these for return?" must also be raised.
We'll take a moment to answer "Yes," "Yes" and "Maybe" to the following questions in advance: "Are those ladies dumbbells inside a PS2?," "Is that PS2 stuffed with towels?" and "Is that some sort of Chinese PS2 knockoff?" We hope that helps ease the pain.

Sony has once again stuck to its guns over the PlayStation 3's "10 year life-span", stating that it sees sales of the console "far outlasting" that of the PS2.
Speaking in a statement given to T3 magazine, the company said: "PS3 won't celebrate its second birthday in the UK until March of this year, and we've said all along that the life-cycle for this generation of hardware will be longer than previous models.
"PS2 was still going strong after eight years, and with the power the Cell processor provides, not to mention the fact that PS3 is inherently future-proof, we see the PS3 sales curve far outlasting that of PS2."
PC gaming giant Crytek recently joined the many developers predicting the launch of the next console in "2011, or 2012."
Going on Sony's statement though, we're not expecting an unveiling any time soon... at all.

What’s EA’s least favorite console? Don’t say it’s the PSP! But the company’s release charts suggest a cooled interest in Sony’s handheld.
***
Financial statements released by mega-publisher EA as part of the company’s third-quarter results this week show the Sony’s PSP coming up short in company support.
A chart of the company’s releases for the just-concluded quarter, show just three PSP games released during the busy Christmas holiday season, compared to nine DS games, eight Xbox 360 games, 7 PS3 games and 12 Wii games.
EA prominently supported the PSP when the system launched and continues to put major sports and racing titles on the system. But the numbers here raise some questions that we’ll certainly be asking EA decision-makers about the next time we speak to them.
