PSP Homebrew Weekend Warrior - Image 1


The Japan-only PSP title Evangelion: Jo made waves this week not because of its gameplay or anything, but because of a new anti-CFW feature built into it. It's not exactly new since there have been other PSP games that implemented CFW checks before, but it does drive home the point that developers are taking it into their own hands to keep PSP piracy at bay. Not sure how long the protection on the game will last though. The homebrew scene generally gets fired up even more when stuff like this comes out.

Read on for a recap of the week in homebrew.

  • Evangelion: Jo is first anti-CFW PSP game, more to come? Link

Hopefully there will be an seplugin that will fool future PSP games so that they can run with custom firmware.

This doesn't prevent piracy, this prevents sales to people who don't want to give up their CFW.
Idiots.

And only about 8% of the market know about CFW let alone have it installed.

I'm pretty sure they don't give a flying ***** when someone with CFW can't play one of their games.

I'd say only about 8% DON'T have custom firmware installed.

If they want to give up sales to people with custom firmware, that's their right, but stupid.
