Ok, how is it better? Is it the fact that it has suckier graphics, doesn’t play music, or doesn’t browse the internet? Or maybe it’s because it can’t play xml channels, play super nintendo, nintendo 64, or maybe because the screen isn’t as big? You tell me.

wow, mr. omg, who says i use emulators on my psp, over-reacting much?

i never called you a name, so umm, stfu, and start your own DS hacking site if you adore it so much, there’s a reason this site is called PSP-hacks…..duh, they should really make you signe up before leaving a comment, just cause you can block IP’s that way, to stop ignorance from spreading to areas of the internet that don’t deserve it

 
Comment by VECTORMAN 89
2007-03-22 00:07:45

I’m going to repeat this, but this time its not abbreviated for those who don’t already know:

SHUT THE FUCK UP AND JUST PLAY GAMES.

The DS has a few, if any, merits, namely it’s ports of Wii games which work well on the system. Otherwise, it has no decent games, due to every other game on the DS being an Ubisoft port of something hacked and slashed into a heap of garbage. The standout games, however, barely justify the purchase of the cheap-feeling DS Lite, seeing how these are also ports or alternate versions of better games, many of which can be played on the PSP anyways.

I am sick and tired of fanboys like yourself. Nintendo may be outselling the Playstation brand, but that does not mean that they are the superior brand in all genres. Nintendo will never have more great shooter games than the Xbox, PC, or Playstation. Nintendo will never have more high quality Action/Adventure games than Playstation or the PC. Nintendo doesn’t have better Racing games than the Playstation or the Xbox. Nintendo will never have better puzzle games than the PC. Nintendo will never have more media capability than the Playstation.

I do not own a DS, or a Wii for that matter, and that is my decision. Personally, I’ve never found simulation games all that enticing, and that is all the DS has to offer me, and nothing else. If I ever wanted to play Cooking Mama, Brain Age, or Wii Sports, I know where to go, but I and the majority of actual gamers on this site are not intrigued by the things we do every day.

Simply hating the PSP because of it’s rivalry to your brand of choice is moronic and ignorant. How dare you call yourself a video game fan when you are denying titles like Lumines, LocoRoco, Katamari, WipEout, SOCOM Fireteam Bravo and Ratchet & Clank out of spite and not distaste.

You think the PSP is delicate? Mine is still in near-new condition after 35 months of constant use. Not a single thing has broken on it. I am yet to find a DS Lite without broken hinge on the back. And both systems gather fingerprints quite equally.

Don’t even try to cobble together a rebuttal, there is nothing you can say that would validate your imbecilic blindness. You fanboys disgust me. Why not stop being ignorant and give the PSP a use? I guarantee you will not put it down if you pick up the right games. Don’t simply say they suck without saying which ones suck, just shut the fuck up and play them.

Comment by VECTORMAN 89

Console that had started it all:
Atari 2600

Non-Nintendo Shooters that are better than GoldenEye 007 (From the same period):

System Shock 2
DOOM 2
Counter-Strike
Half-Life

Controllers with alphabetical buttons before or during the same period (As if it mattered; Nintendo didn’t invent the Latin alphabet):

PC (The original, btw.)
Apple Macintosh (Also the original)
Amiga
Commodore 64
Atari 5200
Atari Jaguar
Atari Lynx
Sega Master System
Sega Genesis

Better “Party” games than Nintendo:

Garry’s Mod
UNO (Xbox 360)
Counter-Strike

Things that are shaped like a brick:

Every Nintendo handheld to date (PSP doesn’t have corners, dipshit)

“Fuckass fanboys” (sic)

You

lol, i’ve been doing this, congrats on the first to release an actual pack tho

as a warning, these are most likely decrypted RCO’s from 2.50, so some options will be missing under your PSP’s “System Settings”, so don’t select those, the PSP will crash, i know from experience

btw: the “About PSP” pix are also in that file

Hey vik, yes, you can replace it.

just follow the readme, it says to backup the original sysconf_plugin.rco before changing it

Comment by axelixc
2007-03-22 00:44:20

Wait ! There is always ways to do it.

All u need is to use freespacer homebrew app and select “Disable font”. Then enter recovery mode and to flash0. U shall notice yr flash0 drive has gained certain memory space in exchange for chinese font disable temporary.

After u have done overwriting the sysconf_plugin.rco, exit recovery menu and run freespacer again. Then enable the font. You should get back the chinese font without any error.

There’s room, unless you put something really big on there. Like an elephant.

These are significantly bigger than the old sysconf_plugin, that’s for sure. LIAMMR, any idea why these are so much larger?

Comment by jonowee
2007-03-22 01:56:21

The old sysconf_plugin.rco was 282KB, most of the sysconf_plugin.rco was this Mod Pack are around 446KB.

Maybe you guys here at psp-hacks could arrange some kind of “Pimp My PSP” competition where we could see some really good (if tere are any…) customized PSP´s.
