That has nothing to do with this article. Perhaps you're thinking that users with hacked PSPs won't be able to get onto the PS Store, but why would a hacked PSP user download ports of PS1 games etc when they can put it on their PSP for free? (ie make ISOs themselves or download them.)

And frankly, who with a PSP would care that much if they couldn't play online with their PSP games. They generally aren't that amazing anyways.

In response to the article... Good. Maybe people will actually start buying downloadable PSP games. The majority of PSP owners probably don't have a hacked PSP or a PS3.

This had damn well better be good. PSone games, movies, demos and extra ingame content better be available. Maybe music.

Only a small number of people have a modified console. Either because the rest of the owners are too stupid or lazy to follow directions, but either way only a very small minority of owners have modded their system.

You do know there are reasons to have a hacked psp right besides to play downloaded iso's correct?

Sure, but I'm just thinking of the content that the PS Store will be able to give to PSP owners that would otherwise only be obtainable through modding your console or having a PSP, (ie downloadable PS1 games.)

Thinking pretty narrowly, and moreso, not looking at the bigger picture. No sh!t would someone with a modded psp not buy ps1 games from Sony when they can do it themselves, that is obvious to anybody.....just like M$, Sony could possibly incorporate a logger, and have a field day on those they assume are committing piracy of whatever type. Just by logging on to the store, Sony could somehow collect info similiar to M$. Pure speculative, just throwing it out there. I also highly doubt this will happen, but again just a random what-if on my part.

To mod a PSP you don't even have to void the warranty in order to mod it to do whatever you'd like it to do. It's just somewhat time consuming and requires a (somewhat minimal) knowledge of computers and the patience to read/find how to get the job done. I suggest modding you PSP not simply to put illegal PSP ISO games on there but to but emulators ie snes or gameboy on there. <<Then you have all your old consoles on a nifty little portable game player.

And svtstang, I can understand what you a thinking now, and I agree with you that while possible, the idea of Sony going after pirates seems a bit far fetched... But then again, anything goes in the "war on piracy" I suppose.

Cmon, you are either stupid or lazy if you dont take full advantage of a psp, like Moomoo said there is no voiding of warranty involved, no soldering....just being able to read and follow directions. Damn Sony will replace the damn thing if you mess up, simply by telling them the psp bricked while updating firmware (granted the psp is under warranty). If you have a non-downgradable firmware it is understandable. So please do read before commenting, I am speaking purely about a psp....not an xbox or playstation.

And yeah Moomoo, you are right. I just have all these crazy conspiracy theories after M$ finally cut the cord on Live :/

I have never met anyone without a hacked PSP.
