Kernel Exploits and 6.30

You're all just reading into it to much. The scene is dead because of natural causes. If anyone was interested in the PS2 scene right now, its only to look up on HDLoader and shit. Platform is dead = Homebrew scene is dead. The remnants are just pirates. The hardware is an antiquated piece of crap. There are no new games coming out. There's no debate. They just haven't announced a new PSP, thats all. There's no piracy on the PSPGo and it still failed.
 
I'd be happy if there was a full hack for 3000 users above 5.03, I mean I appreciate the halfbyte loader I'm using now for me to run my homebrew but its kind of a pain after a while. But again its not the end of the world for me if nothing gets released.

What?? Half Byte Loader a pain? Is it that hard to start the game and press R?
Don`t make me laugh, lol Oh, currently I have over a 100 homebrew that work flawlessly on my PSPgo and I couldn`t be more happier:)

Really? Who cares what they think. Ungrateful people are everywhere and people have to learn to deal with it.

I think you both got it exactly right.

Why would you take something to heart that comes from someone you have absolutely no feelings for. I mean I could understand if Davee's own mother bitched at him for an ISO loader, he'd get upset, but if it's people you have absolutely no feelings for, why care what they think?

Also, I really don't like the massive amount of generalizing that goes on when most devs talk about the PSP scene, why do they focus on the assholes and forget about the people who are appreciative and do say thank you. I'm sure Davee has gotten plenty of praise as well, but it seems it's these people that get forgotten.

Because the number of people like that is less than 5%.

Also would you work for FREE only to get bitched, disrespected and insulted?

I think not.

edit: I think you people are too far up your own arses to see the truth. (no offense intended, REALLY! I just couldn't think of another expression to say what I wanted.) For example I've recently joined the xda developers community (HTC phone hacking community) where devs develop hacks and custom WM/Android ROMS for the userbase. From what I've seen, people are much nicer and appriciative of the devs work and it's actually refreshing to see. Devs have no problem talking and posting openly on the forums and even the people who complain are nice and educated. Such is the respect around there that even abandoned hardware is still being supported as much as possible and getting new ROMS. If the PSP Scene had been like that, I don't think it would have become the monster it is now.

Just an example though.

That's nice, your going to try to bash me on MY opinion? Good try though.
 
As much as I would love to see something to regenerate the scene. It's dead. No other way to put it besides, it's dead. The occasional homebrew release doesn't do much to improve those thoughts either. At the peak of the homebrew scene, you'd have at least 15 interesting new pieces of software to toy with at any given moment. I remember being confused on using Swaploit, and then KXPloit came out. I remember the first game I loaded on SNES9X uO Y16, Chrono Trigger.

Wololo should be commended for his generosity to update HBL as often as he has. The moment I got my PSP-3000 from Sony after having the screen cracked. I was so relieved to use homebrew again. For 5 years I've been using PSP homebrew ranging from SNES9X and it's various revisions to PSPRevolution. It was a good run.

However, let's face it. Even if a CFW was released tomorrow the following could happen: 1) Piracy. 2) The scene is pretty dead so not much would happen, honestly this is something that wouldn't get the same attention it used to get. 3) People would continue to baw about something. Someone updates to 6.31 and wants to run homebrew, they baw that they can't because they made that one dumb upgrade. This happened a lot when 1.52 and 2.00 came out.

There is never a guarantee, as much as I would like to see a new CFW to come out tomorrow. It's the devs' wishes to not release one. Then they should feel entitled to do that. The scene just can't redeem itself, it's too late. And you can blame it on 2 groups: QJ and arrogant assholes. QJ for the reason they continued to give credit to people WHO DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. Recently a supposed HBL-Mod for gpSP was given credit and it DIDN'T WORK on QJ. QJ kept uploading and hosting programs that wanted to remain either open-sourced with permission or personal programs. PSPlayerMT comes to mind. QJ hosted it and the dev said (in another language of course) that he wanted it to be hosted on his/her site and only on that site. If you look at gpSP readmes for the gpSP J revisions based on gpSP Kai. It doesn't even mention Exophase for credit, it's despicable.

So there are plenty of reasons to not release anything. You really can't redeem yourself after these kind of abominations happen. I certainly would like to think devs release everything, but the damage has been done. It's sad but true.
 
the psp scene died because sony has done practically nothing to revive it, even from a commercial standpoint the psp is pretty much fail(i rarely hear of a great commercial game, i think the last was patapon and GoW). if sony did a better job at providing a good system, and better advertising, i think the psp scene would survive, remember that it isn't only the homebrew scene that causes it's death, but as well as lack of support from the commercial side of things.
 
lack of thanks to devs?? dont u remember the days when HEN was released and how people went crazy thanking Davee and Team Typhoon!

what else do devs want? slaves to wipe their asses??

I just don't understand this whole concept of being Obsessed against piracy resulting in voiding 1000's of legit users of summing thats actually useful.

all game makers should just stop making new games coz a few 100 use pirated versions!!

why dont the devs just give their best shot and the appreciation from legit and worthy users will come no matter what. the rest can pretty much be ignored.

Dissidia has been pirated over 5 million times. A bit more than a few hundred.

Does it matter if people pirate? To the devs I mean, it doesn't effect you at all, as I stated before there still are MANY users that use CFW or any other product for homebrew. This is why I love the iPhone scene, there are countless amounts of people that pirate games and apps, yet the devs there ignore it and ignore the ungrateful people and still continue to do what they do for the users that appreciate and use their products for what they were intended to.

You have just shown all you ignorance/arrogance and exemplified everything that is wrong with the scene in less than 6 posts.

Thank you very much.

I don't know what you were smoking but I only remember a couple of thanks. The rest was pure faggotry.

When typhoon released HEN there was still very little homebrew development. Everyone bitched and moaned about not being able to pirate.

Most devs in the PSP scene are fucking babies.

Agree with me or not I could care less, I'm so sorry if your feelings are hurt by a bunch of little kids but really? How old are you? I'm assuming a mature adult. Ignore people, you devs need to learn that. This isn't directed to just you KerzaPlanes, I'm stating this generally, if you guys decided to join the PSP scene and code for the PSP that was your choice, you knew what you were getting into, that you would have to deal with these types of people, now your turning it around on us? I just love how every other hacking scene has devs that ignore kids. As I stated before I could care less if you guys agree with me or not, but this is how I feel.
 
The kids we might be able to ignore, yes.

The pirats, I do not ignore when they go haywire like on the PSP.
You always have piracy, on EVERY system (believe it or not, even PS3). But not to the extend it is happening on the PSP.

On for my very own, very good, very not-need-to-discuss-with-you reasons, I can and will not ignore the pirating outbreak on the PSP.

My 2ct.

And you are a whiny, arrogant, self-righteous idiot and not just you, but everyone who supports your kind of thinking.

Why do we care about piracy? In my case there are two reasons:

1) Because the reason we hacked the PSP in the first place was to open up a console we wanted to succeed and thrive that held unlimited potential. As the scene grew ISO loading became a monster that could not be controlled, as you could hack it anywhere, any place and even the most moronic person could do it. The growth of that combined with piss-poor advertising and support in the early years rendered the platform KO at an early start. As game sales flopped for even the best titles, publishers and developers started drifting away from the PSP with fear of piracy (being it legit or not). The idiocy of the PSP Scene was the drop of water needed for homebrew devs to realize their mistake and start to treat the idiots as they deserved.

2) Most homebrew devs (mainly homebrew games ones, but also app ones) got into this because they want to make "real" games themselves in the future. Now if you were one of those people who dreams of making a game seeing it being successful, how would you feel if 5 million copies of one of your greatest creations this generation were pirated and less than 5 million sold? You do the math here. Obviously homebrew devs start thinking "what if this happens to me too?" and think twice before releasing stuff, because they don't want to hurt the thing they dream of living of off.

I don't care if you understand, I couldn't care less if you disagree, but your ignorance and arrogance make me feel a little stupider each time you post in this thread, and I'm starting to get pissed off at you "I'm entitled to everything atitude".
 
If anyone is to blame then, the devs are for hacking the PSP and not putting a Anti-ISO measure in it, right?
Couldn't they have foreseen what ISO loading on a portable device as popular as the PSP would have become?
