PSP ISO Questions

[albrowne]

I have a few questions concerning PSP ISOs. I'm considering getting a PSP for my birthday, however, I'd like to know a few things first.

First, how do you run PSP ISOs on PSP?

Second, is online mode effected if I use an ISO rather than the real game?

Third, what firmware do I need to run ISOs?

Forth, what games force you to upgrade the firmware?

Finally, is there a way to downgrade the firmware if nessicery?

Well as far as I know....

1. You save your PSP ISOs on the Memory Stick Duo and use a "loader" to run pirated/hacked PSP games.

2. No idea about the online mode. I don't have a PSP to check it out

3. It depends. I haven't been checking out the PSP scene recently so don't know the latest update as to which firmware has been hacked and which "loader" requires which firmware to play hacked/pirated games.

4. I have no idea which games force you to upgrade. Last I heard, they were trying to make hacked/pirated version of those games and even fix em up so they won't require the firmware upgrade anymore.

5. I heard they made a program which will enable you to downgrade your firmware but people were kinda scared to do so thinking it might fuck up their PSPs rending em useless. Still no idea.

My advice, make a search for "PSP" over here on emuparadise forums and READ UP other posts. I remember some members posting a few sites which lead to the PSP scene. You'll get much more info from there. Also, google's your friend
