Finally some great new additions were added to the Half byte Loader. In this new stable revision HBL r93 has a new themed menu as you can see here, (previously made in r92), which in time we will be able to update custom themes for our half byte loader. Also, a lot has changed since r85, for instance you will be able to exit your games and return to the HBL Menu as well as the ability to run some great homebrew like Quake as well as the newly added compatibility to play Counter Strike PSP.

E3 yet again had another promising title for the PSP. “God of War: Ghost of Sparta” is said to have many improvements which lacked in the first game, mainly being the dramatically short gameplay time that was on its predecessor ” God of War: Chains of Olympus” this new installment has more than 25% gameplay time added. GoW:GoS will start after the first God of War as Kratos still tries to rid himself of his nightmares.

PSP 6.20 firmware save game exploit has been released leaked by Malloxis, something he wasn’t meant to do till the eLoader is good and ready. Anyway we know now the demo, its Patapon 2 and we also have Wololo’s hello world to go with it. I’ve tested this and it works fine, Hello world running right there on my PSP Go. Homebrew is just a step away? Or is it? We hope the actions of one person doesn’t effect an eLoader been made for this 6.20 save game exploit.

Here’s what you have to do to get it running on your PSP Go, Copy the edited save game UCUS98732_DATA02 folder to your save game data and then the demo to PSP/GAME on your mass memory. Remember to copy over the whole folder UCUS98734. Now the binary h.bin needs to be placed in your mass memory root.

A new save game exploit is apparently out there, found by Maku. The above video demonstrates an apparent Japanese demo that is exploited when a save game is loaded. They have also found out how to run woloo’s SDK hello world. So what do you think? Is it a video and a good fake or could this one really be legit? Apparently its a non PSN demo, so Sony couldn’t patch it if they found out. And its Japanese that’s all we know.

The video does have a few things going for it, 1st off its recorded in HD. Normal faker videos are very poor qaulity normally recorded on a mobile phone in CIF res @ 15 fps and shaky. This isn’t too bad. Secondly he does exit to the XMB, showing us that maybe its not a video. However its dark and could be two videos edited together?

A second video was also posted by mamosuke. However he doesn’t exit to the XMB afterwards?

I guess we just have to wait and see if this will surface as a “real” Save game exploit.

PSP Go to get a UMD drive add-on ???

Now this just sounds ridiculous and it is a rumor. But here it is, logitech are apparently working on a UMD drive add-on for the PSP Go.. First I just have to comment.. BAH hahaha. If this is true, a PSP GO + UMD drive add-on will end up costing much more than a PSP-3000.. So what is the point? If you want a PSP with a UMD drive why would you buy a PSP Go then a add-on bulky logitech drive…

Here’s the sources comment on this:

source (singular) claims that Logitech is developing a UMD drive add-on for the PSP Go. The source has neither price nor release information, merely stating that the “only problem is that it’ll make the PSP a little bulky.” Logitech’s UK office told the outlet that it’s unaware of such a device and that it “may be something the US office is working on.” We’ve contacted both Sony and Logitech for more concrete information.

Check it out, Neon of Team Typhoon has just posted video proof of a PSP Go on Firmware 6.10 running a Homebrew Enabled Enviroment (HEN) So they got ChickHEN to work on a PSP Go, maybe through the Save Game exploit FreePlay talked off?

Watch the video and you’ll see its legit, Neon’s PSP Go running Sega CD game Sonic via homebrew emulator picodrive.

But there is a big but with this, its not going to be released claim Team Typoon. Its just a proof of concept….

PSP Go eloader.

Remember FreePlays save game exploit hello world running on he PSP Go? Well FreePlay has recently posted on his blog that he has the NID resolver working and if he can get that working with the eLoader source we might all have an eLoader for the PSP Go. So that means the possibility to run user eboot’s. Emulators and homebrew games and applications. Custom Firmware and ISO support etc will not come from this. Which is a good thing. No piracy, but the use of homebrew only.

Quoting freeplay from his Youtube account.

Making progress. My NID resolver is working flawlessly now. If I can get it to work with the eLoader source, we’ll have an eLoader for the Go

In this little test we pitted our PSP Go screen against our PSP-2000′s. We no longer have our PSP-3000, so we couldn’t put it up against our PSP Go. But personally, while the PSP-3000 has better colors against a PSP-2000, it has some ghosting and lag as the result of a lower latency screen.

So we know the PSP Go has a smaller screen, 3.8 inches versus the PSP-2000′s 4.3 inches. But while you notice the difference it also has a positive effect. Images on the screen look much sharper. When I go back to using my PSP-2000 it looks a little blurry after using the Go for a while. But then you like the fact its larger…So its a hard one.

However when I compare contrast, the PSP Go screen is a clear winner. Infact the best PSP screen I think to date. It has the nice color range of the PSP-3000 with slightly better contrast and no ghosting / screen lag!!

I’ve taken a few photos of the two screens side by side so you can clearly see that the PSP Go has better contrast and less screen bleed. Black is much blacker and white, much whiter. The last photo taken in the dark with the screens displaying a completely black image demonstrates this. As you can see the PSP-2000 show much more white light bleeding in the images Vs the PSP Go.

Now I’m no expert when it comes to PSP Screens, but you can see in person as well as from these pictures the better of the two LCD screens.

Oh this video is great! (Made by a DS fan ?) But it is funny, I won’t ruin it for you. But watch it till the end. I wonder if any new PSP Go owner actually did this? I know we felt like doing that at times with our UMD’s sitting here that we can’t use in our PSP Go.
