Ploid, you need to get AIM or something so we can chat about how to kit out my PSP. I feel as if I am holding onto something awesome but know not what it is.
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams-
Lies are a funny thing,
they slip through your fingertips because
they never happened to you.
Funny thing is I don't have a psp. When I get one I won't hack it either. I support game companies that I like and want to bring out more games. But I'd be doing this theme thing since it's official.

Nopeeeeeeeee
Editted themes only work on modded PSPs (unless new slim PSPs are compatible out the box, which I doubt)
Unhacked PSPs are worthless Hacked PSPs are conquerers of time
I'll make a guide soon for PSP owners (Amy, VD, and prolly nubstick Safer, and other peoplez) that want to customize.
Hrrrrm that same program has been out and updated many many times by homebrew coders... I guess Sony is finally seeing that UMDs are [mostly] failure and the 'hacking' community's products/advances are far superior to their own ideas and are now integrating them into their own ideas...
That being said, I think it's funny that you wouldn't do it if it crossed the bounds of legality but now that it's legal you'd jump on it ;o
The Sony people that work on ps3 and psp firmware and apps are very good at it, have more access to data/libraries for the hardware, and enjoy adding things like the dvd upscaler to ps3 (compares to the top and most expensive stand alone dvd upscaler boxes). There was an interview with them but I have no link, the particular dvd upscale quality was analysed by avsforums.com I think. This custom firmware thing sounds like trouble waiting to happen. You could possibly end up not being able to update to a new firmware after a ps3 firmware update not having whatever feature. There is a chance of bricking it also. But the main reason to get this custom firmware is to pirate games. What good is it to have a psp if everyone pirate the games, causing even less games to be made on the system (although sony's first party will be required to). Ah, but we get free gamez!!!
Back to $60 games for me. If more people bought the games instead the industry would have been healthier. PC Bioshock anti piracy prob.
If you have all that money and all those other consoles I'd say skip it and hook up your entertainment center. Bigger 1090p tv, sick 7.1 surround sound, and if you still have money, get the 40gig ps3 ($400) and pick up resistance if you like fps, motorstorm if you like racing, ratchet and clank future if you like awesomeness, heavenly sword if you like awesome god of war type fighting with a awesome story and delivery. Then get some good* blue ray movies and feel pwn. But you're in college if I recall correctly. One console is pushing the limit already.
Ohh Wowhawk!
Edit: seriously though. Having all consoles are for old people that are retired. There's no way it should take you more than one console to satisfy you.
i already have a sony 37" 1080i HDTV with 5.1 surround.
but i need an HD DVD player though......
thats sufficient for an apartment. on second thought, i wouldnt have time to play it, and the 400 bucks i would save by not getting a ps3, i could use to pay next months rent.
btw, i have a wii, and i have 1 game on it. but that wii sports/baseball keeps me occupied for hours. definitely worth a buy, but im sure you have one already...
Nah I only have PS3 and PS2 systems. Will think about getting wii for my nephew when he get like 6 or 7 (1y old now). I don't want to look silly playing wii around room mates and company. How does wii look on a HDTV? I know PS2 looks horrible, well through HDMI. I haven't tried S-video, and component as I don't have those cables.
1080i? You need to get a 720p or 1080p for dem games.
forget how high it does go, but if you use component cables it does look a lot better (and by that i mean pretty awesome) (o and yes i have a HDTV :> 46inch)
Oh hay, remember when I said it would be cool if PS3 got this too? Well tomorrow we get's the same customization as the PSP as far as the official psp custom theme goes.
lol
