According to a post on DCEMU, TYL was mentioned in a 2 page article on PSP homebrew.
Congradulations guys, you're officially famous now.

GOOD! PSP Homebrew is at a point where it just cannot be ignored. It has progressed into such an important and great part of the PSP that there will be no stopping it. Sony will release a new iteration of the PSP with a built in camera, internal storage, etc. etc. but it will be locked tight to homebrew capabilities. For that reason, the current PSP we have come to know and love will continue and live on for many many years and get stronger and stronger.
Again I commend the TYL team and look forward to their continued efforts and contribution to the PSP.

i know this makes homebrew famous but isnt it illegal to be running homebrew apps and probably means sony is cracking down on it even more.If they make a new firmware and they make you install it to play new released games that will be nuts because it will be impossible to trick a new firmware into running homebrew.
or mayb im underestimating psp crackers

Homebrew is by no means illegal.
Roms and ISOs are illegal.
Sony really couldn't give a crap about the roms, but those people who play ISOs are the very reason why Sony even HAS firmware!
If ever you catch someone playing ISOs on their PSP, I suggest you kick them in the face/gonads, then punish them as severely as possible (probably by continueing to kick their face/gonads)

roms and isos arent illegal, infact its perfectly legal if you dump the game. while most of us dont dump them and just download is where it goes into the grey area. roms are generally more politically accepted as the manufacturer makes no more money on it. isos on the other hand are illegal if you download them and play them, so i would suggest just dumping your own isos as that is 100% legal despite what companies would like you to think.

I would actually like to add a comment :
- You have the RIGHT to do a backup of any original you own.
- You have the RIGHT to use PUBLIC DOMAIN software (even Snes or PSP one), ex. this emu.
- You have the RIGHT to use ABANDONWARE : in some case companies that are dead or have no more interested in their old game, declare to do not use the copyrights they had on a game.
While I am not sure it can be considered as PUBLIC DOMAIN. (May be making money is prohibited in the case the company or right owner still exist).

Well then, perhaps owning every Snes cart isn't a total loss anyhow.

If ever you catch someone playing ISOs on their PSP, I suggest you kick them in the face/gonads, then punish them as severely as possible (probably by continueing to kick their face/gonads) But Sony does care if you use roms (or anything besides official PSP media). If your using roms, you not playing PSP games, if your not playing PSP games, you probably not buying any, and if you not buying any, they aren't making money . I do think this it the major chance for homebrew to be somewhat officalized. IGN did an article and mentioned homebrew, now in the PS magazine. Maybe there will be some sort of official SDK for homebrew, but thats a long time from now. |
