Is anyone running homebrew and what is in it that makes it worth the hassle of doing it? I keep reading about it but just don't see it. Tell me I am missing something. :confused:

I don't get it. This is Extremesystems and what is more extreme after hardware moding than making the hardware do more than it was designed for?
Thanks though I will talk to you on pm.

I guess. I just don't see it that way. It is experimenting in my eyes. But only pirating if you are steeling games and what not. That doesn't have anything to do with Homebrew it's self. I didn't ask about how to steel game rom's right?
Ok I will drop it. Just thinking out loud.

Homebrew is perfectly legal and I'm only interested in developing my own applications. Piracy ruins consoles, without it they would all be open and development would be easy.

Do you have a Dev. Kit to make them? Or can you make it in Java or C+?

It can be done in C. You don't want to run Java apps on a system this slow.
The guys over at PS2 dev have a homebrew reverse engineered SDK you can download for free.

Thanks Craig I will give it a look, though I am just starting to teach my self python if I can figure it out. I learn from seeing it done not reading it but it just might click for me.

I see most people don't undertund term HOMEBREW. I recommend PSP hacks or DCEMU PSP news for all emulators and custom made games for PSP. My favorite is gameboy color and Super inntendo emulator. PSP rocks big time, and keeps me entertained while away from my baby computer:D

PSP hacks is an advertising whore. It should be avoided in all circumstances.
DCemu PSP news is a good site though, probably the only mature people in a scene full of kids. It's Sonys advertising though, they're targeting dumb kids, scaring off anyone innovative, in both the homebrew and commercial arenas.

agreed. At his point the scene is pretty much dying. Those people who stayed with 1.5 firmware in order to do homebrew have declined significantly for a number of reasons. One is that new games cannot be pirated like the orignal games because they require newer *fixed* firmwares to run and therefore those pirates that also dabbled in homebrew have either upgraded to play the new games or sold the system. Also, Sony keeps adding features to the official firmware updates that make many of the neat homebrew programs redundant and usually of lesser quality. That said, you can still get Quake to run on it =]
