PlayStation Store DRM Broken

by Mike Bendel on April 6, 2008 @ 12:48 pm


According to French-based site PSP Generation, homebrew developer CipherUpdate has released “NPDecryptor,” a utility for decrypting PlayStation Store bought PSP games such as flOw and Beats. Once decrypted, the titles can be played on any PSP running custom firmware, regardless of whether or not the license data is tied to your PSP.

To be honest, I’m not exactly thrilled over this release, as it will only lead to rampant piracy of PSN titles. While the application itself may be legal, there’s no real legitimate use here. For this reason, please understand that we will not be hosting the application.

Sorry, I know that M33 and most of the hackers (including x3) don't like this, but....I have to say this: HAHA! In your face! Kiss my sweet white a**!

Why have I said this? I don't know, I just hate Sony (don't ask me why )

Now question to the dev: Why the f**k have you created this monster?! Why, God? Why? (wooohoo the drama)

If u hate Sony so much then why use the products. I personally will not be using this & adding to the mass effect piracy has on the computer game industry. All I ever hear these day is how much ppl hate the game companies & how they could improve this improve that ect, well here it is in a nut shell its ppl that pirate games that effect the type of game that is made or if there is a sequel you kinda ppl only have urselves to blame.

ARGH! i'd just typed out a good reply there....dammit.only gunna do a short version...dam computer

anyways,yea.if it wasnt for Sony then it's doubtful that Microsoft would of seen the potential of the computer console market and tried to enter it.

i reckon the n64 would of won against the saturn though since it would have had more games for it (it was easier to program for apparently).after that i dunno....i doubt we would of had a wii or a DS and i think Ninteno would of just pumped out a proper Gamecube2 and continued with the "power race"
