Old PSP interview

July 29th, 2006, 02:19 Posted By: HellsPlumber

I put this in the news section because it tells of future PSP hardware, gives info on hacking and hints that sony may allow homebrew in future.

I was searching the net and found an interveiw with Japanese technology Web site ITmedia, Kawanishi that revealed possible plans for the PSP. Read it and then come back here.

Firstly,it says:
"Kawanishi explained that security issues prompted the team to leave out some Javascript support, such as allowing scripts to access the UMD"

This shows that If Javascript is expanded,then the Flash memory would be accesable and a downgrader could be made.


Then it says:
"He commented that a keyboard and mouse are possibilities"

We have yet to see these and they where not on any PSP plans.But lets hope they are released

THE MAIN PART!:

"When asked whether the PSP will support downloadable games, Kawanishi simply stated that the idea is under consideration. He also added that it would be interesting if users could develop their own simple games and distribute them online."

USERS COULD DEVELOP THEIR OWN GAMES AND PUT THEM UP FOR DOWNLOAD BUT $ONY BLOCKED IT!

Does this mean $ony will allow homebrew in the future?
Is he talking about some kind of software $ony will release to make games?
Is he trying to make it sound like $ony is in favour of homebrew and trying to get its reputation back?
Or does this guy just not know what he's talking about?
