PsP facts

[tru-guru]

i am thinking to get a psp however i am hearing that different firware versions (1.5, 1.52, 2.0, 2.5 etc) support different things. wat i would like to know no matter wat version it is can u play downloaded games on them?

well if your going to buy a psp, i believe there is a thread containing the information you want, but you should get a psp with firmware of 1.5, 1.52, 2.0 all of those can play downloaded games, but for 1.52 you must upgrade to 2.0 and then downgrade from 2.0 to 1.5 read some of the other psp threads in our games section, one of em tells how to tell which firmware the psp u buy has before you open it

so do u need homebrew software to run downloaded games? cant you not do this without it?

I dont tihnk so. The japanese firmware works on the psps here.

Why dont you look on a good forum that has buy/sell/trade sections.
