Wow you're really detailed in your explanations

So basically if I see a "modded" or m33-x thing at the firmware, it means that the PSP is custom?
I'm trying to look for second hand PSPs because many people seem to regret buying it as it gets boring. Though for me I'm not really buying it as a gaming device. Gaming comes later when Kingdom Hearts : Birth by Sleep is released .

For 'ahem' games, and PS1 games + its emulator, how much space does it normally take for a single game? I'm not sure 4GB would be enough for me as I will probably split half for gaming and half for videos.

Also, theres this service someone is offering to mod PSPs for a cheaper price. Should I trust this and get an original PSP for him to mod?

hehe,thanks.

Yes,any firmware with odd extensions behind it is a custom firmware (SE,OE,WC,M33,GEN etc).
I bought my psp three years ago (after UPSR results) and i'm still enjoying it,and no,i don't use my psp as a gaming device only.

Well,it depends on the game itself.Some games like God Of War takes up about 1.69gb where else games like Lumines barely requires 80mb.Emulators and other homebrews are small in size so you don't need to worry about it.

I have a 32mb stick for my developments,1gb stick for homebrew/photos and 4gb stick for music/games/videos.

I would advise against getting a psp with official firmware on it as new psp units come with new mother boards which are,at the moment,unhackable.So,i'd say,don't take the risk,and go get a unit with custom firmware installed on it.

some lastest released psp 2k have the TA-088v3 boards in them that cant be modded as of yet...

dark_alex is no more la... it's m33~

i do custom firmware flashing ...*wink*wink*

crash bandicoot 2 (psx) is about 126mb after conversion into eboot.
silent hill (psx) is about 339mb after conversion.

musashi.. i forgot lol, 300+mb i think.

howerver, chrono cross & those rpg games will commonly be up to 400-500mb per disc after conversion to eboot. so it depends mostly on the games. additional info about psx games.. ah it'll be too long, i'm not like playboy.. so i'll do it on separate posts if u wanna know, just ask *wink*

I have just added the tutorial (by sprix) on formatting your Memory Stick to FAT16.

Look it up in the Miscellaneous Questions section:

thx DFlo but i edi try it but fail coz i don understand how to 'change x to your MS Drive'.. can u explain more coz i'm totally noob....

When you have connected your Memory Stick, what drive letter is assigned to it?

For example, when connected and your Memory Stick drive is assigned the letter "G" (G:\), then just replace 'x' with 'G'.

Just go to My Computer and you can see what letter your Memory Stick is assigned to.

thx again DFlo.. i gonna give it a try one more time

DFlo,yes they are.Many do not know about it,but it actually is against the laws of EULA,but who cares? lol

Alright guys,i've completed my TrickBrick tool and i will release it tomorrow (maybe-if the beta testers are happy with it).So yea I'll post my brew' in here with the download link in here the minute i'm done with it.

u mean the latest psp2000 bought from official stores cant be hacked? does dat mean the chances of being hacked are as slim as the psp3K??

C-Note,yes.The new mother boards are unhackable at the very moment.

the psp 3000 only comes in black and white ??

i have no idea

Oh OK, now that's a first for me. Mind to lead me to the EULA you were referring to?

benwong88, if you don't have anything constructive to answer or question, I would advice you to not post anything until you do.

By simply stating "i have no idea" when no one is asking you anything or when you are not questioning anything, it's a waste in many aspects.

Hey guys is RM690 worth for a PSP slim 2000?
Its without Memory Card.
Completely new.
