    Well, if you're using for legit purposes, all the more power to you. I just am really disturbed that so early in it's life it's being pirated. I hope Microsoft finds a way to fix this quickly to stop it from getting too wide spread.

     

    It's cool. I already own 16 Xbox 360 games. I have no problem buying my games. BTW I think it might me a while before it could be really wide spread. I'm pretty computer savy and I destroyed one 360 trying to get it right. It's pretty quick to do, but can be tricky figuring it out for the 1st time. It's not at all like PSP, btw which I happen to own 25 purchased game for as well.

     

    Also I'd love to see a true hack making the system open like Xbox 1. I'm dreaming a perfectly running N64 that'll take USB apapter for original N64 controller.

    I never said one word about pirating. Have you heard of 360's destroying discs? It happened to me once already. I'm not the only either so there. I enjoy have a real game collection too, like every here. You should know all the facts before speaking to someone like that/

    What options are do you see? I know it has to be there. My Xbox is modded so I don't have my original dashboard there anymore. The maker of the memory card doesn't matter. Controller might be an option to look for too.

    PSP is indeed a great little emulation machine. Anyone who doesn't think so most like isn't using using the right settings or most recent versions of the emulators. Emulation is good on 2.6, but great on 1.5.

    In the interest of equal time, I'd like to express my displeasure that Microsoft requires you to update your dashboard in order to play new games. I just rented Battle For Middle Earth II and have been greeted with a screen informing me that I can update or I can forget about playing the game.

     

    Since this exact thing apparrently infuriates people who don't even own a PSP when it is done for that device, I'm sure that it will be just was eagerly reviled in regards to Microsoft's box.

     

    The 360 updates aren't as bad as with PSP. Generally they make the 360 better. Best of all no update yet has stopped the current DVD Drive firmware hacks.

    You have to use the GTA eloader to access the downgrader. It's the only way to run unsigned code on 2.01-2.6 firmware. Once you downgrade you don't need it anymore, because you'll be at 1.50. This is a case where you could just rent the game once it you don't want to buy it.

    It's definitely less of a PITA than the PSP for homebrew. Best site for GP2x info IMHO:

    http://wiki.gp2x.org/wiki/Main_Page

     

    Not unless you buy a PSP with Firmware rev. 2.0 or less. The GP32, from what I can recollect, has shoddy Snes emulation and can only emulate the 8-bit scene. Now I don't know about the GP2x, but I do know the PSP's are going pretty good. I can't say much since I've only used a PSP. The newer rev. of the PSP 2.0+ make it much harder to get involved in the homebrew scene due to having to buy GTA and trying to find the correct software to run it. But like I said the PSP rev. 2.0 can be downgraded to 1.5 very easily and can run homebrew apps in an instant. The PSP homebrew scene has shown that, with certain software, you can actually trick your PSP into thinking it's running rev. 2.5 + so you will be able to run newer UMD's plus all the homebrew apps.

     

    You know there is a 2.6 downgrader out now? So pretty much any PSP owner with 2.60 or lower firmware can now have a 1.50 PSP as long as they don't have one of the new TA-82 model PSPs.

    Worse case you can always print the prices up from Circuit City's site and get them price matched at Best Buy or Walmart.

     

    would they really do that?

     

    I've done it before with Circuit City sales at both stores. Neither store ever gave me much of a problem when it came to price matching. When it's a really low price a manager may need to come over, but they still do it.
