ISO and Roms

[illfoundedmind]

Oh my lock this one right? :P

ISO & ROMS:
Why not embrace them? It is illegal to host them (which you would not be doing) but not to provide links to them or to discuss them in the open (it is only illegal to host and download them which is irrelevant). You are greatly limiting your audience by instating unnecessary rules.

To have a site about hacking psp and to have no discussion about iso and roms seem like blasphemy. More users would come here, I’m sure, if rom & iso discussion was permitted (I know that’s why there are more users at pspcrazy ;) ).

Not if you oppose this then be sure you state your reason.
This is merly an idea to help improve the site of course :D

[Dr. Nick]

...

[Ace 519]

hmmm...... I dont see why they shouldn't provide links to iso's.

[Dr. Nick]

Yeah.

[Spartan 117]

u can discuss ISO, roms, but cannot post, ask for links, but u can freely talk about them, who says talking about ISO's is illigal???, its not, just asking/posting links is

[RaiderX]

yea we are allowed to tlak abotuthem in every way, just cant provide them in the open (u can PM links to each other)

its cuz sites can get shut down for that.

now i have a workaround, someone can go maike a free webpage, put a buncha ISO and ROM site links on it, and put that as their website in their profile. linking to a site thta links to ISOs isnt exactly illegal ;)

[Caprisun]

yeah if we ever hosted iso's this site would be shutdown, then you aint gonna be able to dicuss shit, hell even if nobody noticed theres no way greg would be able to maintain this site due the the extreme bandwidth usage

[illfoundedmind]

u can discuss ISO, roms, but cannot post, ask for links, but u can freely talk about them, who says talking about ISO's is illigal???, its not, just asking/posting links is
is it?;) if that were the case: search engine would get sewed from providing links to illegal sites (which doesn't happen)? It is only illegal to upload and download illegal material (if your bound by laws ;) to simply provide a link should not be illegal. (I really don't know -- because I live outside the law ;) )

[RaiderX]

he didnt mean it was illgeal to the US government, ti is illegal on THIS FORUM. Thats the rules and u gotta follow them.

[illfoundedmind]

he didnt mean it was illgeal to the US government, ti is illegal on THIS FORUM . Thats the rules and u gotta follow them.
Then that would be the purpose for this suggestion -- make it okay to do so ;) and you'll get more members and more cash. Quite simply… - WHY NOT? I could make countless reference to situations similar to this but they would most occur in a jail cell :P

dont drop the soap!

[p4ch3c0]

I agree completely with illfoundedmind. There is no reason that we shouldn't be able to post links to ROM sites. Why isn't Google shut down yet? They have links to ROM sites, ISO sites, and worse sites, like kiddie porn sites. So why haven't they been taken down yet? Because they don't host the illegal material.

edit: I still don't think that we should be able to post links to ISOs. Just ROMs to outdated systems.

[MikeG13]

I got like 50 isos

[killaj]

and...

[illfoundedmind]

I agree completely with illfoundedmind.
Good move ;)

[Caprisun]

heh, well think of this, everyonme posts all the iso and rom sites available, and they all get shutdown due to violations, what then?

[Yessy]

well..........i dunno.........but i do think talkin on how or where to get iso's isn't illigeal......

[xXxThe-Boy-WonderxXx]

what is ISO?

[Spartan 117]

google it, knock ur self out

[RaiderX]

edit: I still don't think that we should be able to post links to ISOs. Just ROMs to outdated systems.
yes, piracy is bad, but roms should be perfectly legal since they dotn sell the games anyway, who are u stealing form? nobody is gettiung hurt, if ANYTHING, downloading a rom, might make u buy a sequal that the company might release for a newer system!

[p4ch3c0]

That's the whole point. Nobody loses out when I download Chrono Trigger or Dragon Quest V.

[illfoundedmind]

I really don't care if someone is gets "hurt" they'll live -- & if they die it will so what there r too many people out there.


That's the whole point. Nobody loses out when I download Chrono Trigger or Dragon Quest V.
FUCK YES those are two of the best roms; for DQ5 did you have to get a manual translation?







Oh and your point about old roms not being sold, that is going to change with the nintendo revolution ;)

[p4ch3c0]

FUCK YES those are two of the best roms; for DQ5 did you have to get a manual translation?
http://donut.parodius.com/?func=trans&platform=snes&gamekey=293

Get the one by DeJap and Partial Translations.

[illfoundedmind]

I actually have a nearly full translation for DQ5 (you can play the hole game through without noticing) I beat the game up until you can use classes and then got busy with other things and never finished :(.

[p4ch3c0]

I think you're talking about DQ6. DQ5 doesn't have a traditional class system.

[illfoundedmind]

Dam your right it's the one with Mudo. How is V?

[illfoundedmind]

Here would be the rules I was talking aboot

1. DO NOT post any links directed to illegal software - this includes all the recent PSP ISO's, Roms, Copyrighted Music and Movies, pretty much all Copyright materials - you post, you're Banz0red.

2. DO NOT ask for any ISO's, Roms, Copyrighted Music and Movies, pretty much all Copyright Materials, and this includes asking through PM's (Personal Messages) - you ask, you're Banz0red.

It says direct links so I could give direct you to a javascript redirect page? or a page with a link to it :D?

[Spartan 117]

why don't u ask greg directly and ssee what he says instead of suggesting it

[illfoundedmind]

Because if he know I asked then I would not of suggested it ;)

what??? >__> :P

[StevenTr]

Ehh i like the whole point of not allowed links but it wouild be nice to get them...we have a good community already for me i suppose

but if we started just putting links and stuff people would just join tto get isos and not join the fun in the forums

[illfoundedmind]

wrong pspcrazy.com

[p4ch3c0]

Dam your right it's the one with Mudo. How is V?
Heh, Mudo is in Dragon Warrior IV for the NES. DQV is for the SNES.

Dragon Quest V is very good, actually. Way better than any of the Final Fantasy games that came out on the SNES. It's my second favorite in the series (my favorite being DQVIII for PS2 (it fucking owns)).

That would still be considered illegal content, and we would lose advertisers. We're walking on the edge of their TOS right now allowing talk about them.
Plus there is the moral issue. People really should go buy their damn games.

[p4ch3c0]

So basically, we are being censored by the advertisers. Am I correct?

[belly0fdesire]

It's the same as with any medium... if advertisers disagree with the content of the medium, they will pull their ads... It's been done with Tom Leykis and Howard Stern as well as with some television shows...

My stepfather was a pain in the ass when I was little... (long ass time ago)... and when we were watching the Simpsons, he disagreed with the content of the show and took down every advertisement shown that was aimed at children... he wrote a letter to all of them and threatened to pursue legal action if they didn't pull their ads from the show and sent a copy of the letter to fox also... he got a few letters back thanking him for his concern and suggestion and thereafter we didn't see any advertisements aimed at children during the simpsons. Nowadays, I see some advertisements that are aimed at children, but this was a long time ago...

Howard has mentioned a few times that he had been getting heat from his Manager for his content because of the FCC, of course, but also because of threats from advertisers, who didn't agree and didn't want their product associated with the material on the show.

So yeah... if the advertisers disagree with the content, or if they are afraid of legal action being taken against them for their association with illegal content, they will pull their advertisements...


.....somethin' like that.....

DragonWarrior = DragonQuest (title change when translated to english from jap).

Yeah whatever >__> pretty cool game -- I actually don't play any new games or games??????????

Well that make sense about why there isnt a downloads section for ISOs/Roms. I was wondering about that for a long ass time too hehe

Isn't there a way around it tho? I mean theres alot of Rom/ISO sites out there with tons of sponser ads. I think I even remember seeing a few of the sites that got the same sponsers have psp movie downloads at the least.

They might not care if you don't post about it on the front page then just have a special forum w/ a members only or min post limit to enter it. Name the forum section "PSP Downloads" then for a sponser to even SEE what kind of posts it contains they'd have to become a member,etc

That way the site would look the same and not risk losing any sponserships. Surely the sponsers don't got enough time to inspect every sites forums that close..

[Yessy]

hey yeah i agry their iso should be allowed

Nah, I'm not a mod...

It's your choice whether to keep it as sticky :/

[illfoundedmind]

nah let it stay :cool: then one will wonder why it stays :cool:

All three of you are wrong. They won't pull out due to illegal content. I have seen Warez forums/sites with huge Google, Clicksor, Kannodle, Yahoo and Kontera ads on them. Also, If you take a look at the ads on the front page they have ads FROM google advertisers to sites like unlimited psp downloads and pspblender, which HOST ISOS, MOVIES, and MUSIC. There are even adverts to places to get Swap Magic ( The disc that allows you to play PS2 ISOS) on this site.

[illfoundedmind]

Lol, Ok.

And when will Meeku's Quest be finished?
www.illfoundedmind.com/wiki :bucktooth:

Why does anyone want to know what the dev crew is up to?

[Sterist]

lol i must be a bad guy ;)

i know how to get every single game with every single language.. but i wouldnt be paying for them in the first place so i jst download. (not of my top interest, so i wouldnt have bought them) and even after download, i wont play some, outside of the limitations of firmware versions (i HATE the mph iso loader, not user friendly lol) and the sizes of the ISOs, even after using DAX.

[Gary13579]

Dam your right it's the one with Mudo. How is V?
Heh, Mudo is in Dragon Warrior IV for the NES. DQV is for the SNES.

Dragon Quest V is very good, actually. Way better than any of the Final Fantasy games that came out on the SNES. It's my second favorite in the series (my favorite being DQVIII for PS2 (it fucking owns)).
I've played DW4 nearly all the way to the end, and don't remember the name Mudo.. I should probably go through and play it again.

But DQV, ahh, that was an amazing game.
It's been a while since I've played it; I don't remember much. I remember you had to get two orbs to raise a flying castle? In order to get one, you had to go back in time and take it from yourself?

[p4ch3c0]

Yep, sorry. Mudo is in Dragon Quest VI for the SNES. Dammit. And yeah, DQV was an amazing game. It's pretty cool how you see your future self during the time that you're a child, then later you go back in time to see yourself as a child. And the part where Papas died... :'(

[Gary13579]

Yeah, I also like how you get to choose who to marry.
Of course I chose your friend; love is deeper then just looks or popularity.

Gah, now I have to play it again. Damn you!

[Exiled]

Chrono Trigger P3wnz Allll!!

[illfoundedmind]

hmmm... nm

[Artemisk]

Yeah what about links to torrents or the torrent website that the torrent is located but not the actual file.

[illfoundedmind]

The loral rest atop my head. Interesting that this is still up, good. Evolution PSP.

illfoundedmind! HI! (i doubt he'll see this for another 3 months...)

[p0Wer]

Hey illfoundedmind! Remember me?

Are you going to stay here for a while?

[illfoundedmind]

HELLO, back? I've been trapped in a for loop ;-)

So who is focusing on the creation of a custom firmware? I would like to join their team. Illegal actions and software development codes would have to be used, of course this has always been the logical course of action. Building emulators directly into the firmware.

Oh yes,


Settings | Photo | Music | Video | Emulator | Homebrew | Game | Internet
> N64
> NES
> etc

We all know what we want, so who is taking action to make it happen? (been out of the scene).

I've aquired a few psp, why not design a layout, by suggestion and try to make it happen, Evolution PSP

wow :o havent seen u post in a LONG time, since signed up lol, but ummm no1 rly is focusing on it right now, i dunno if you can do it since it is mainly a prx replacement, but it IS possible but no1 attempts to do it, you can try to contact HarleyG i guess, i only c him on pspu though

[laurence]

As i love this site and i dont want it to be shut down im with no ISO links.......

[oishigurl]

though it is convenient and saves money on using isos instead of buying the real thing, it just kills the industry... probably that's why sony is making new games that would only run on higher fw (2.8 and above)....nokia ngage died because it was easier to copy their games (imagine copying and playing ngage games on other phones).... i hope it wouldn't happen to psp... just my 2 cents...

[PSP-4gb]

Ive noticed Rom discussion being a phox pa here in psp hacks and since thats one of the only reasons i hacked my PSP i think that leaves me well out of most conversations.and i will however say having discussions about roms will lead Noobs to make threads like "Link to n64 roms?" and "where can i get link to good ISO's" but the rules for requesting or giving out links to roms or ISO's should be like what they are now for mentioning these things. Either way i have over 4,000 roms on my psp and i cant show it off.

Reguardless, i love this forum. Lots of creative people. Just wish we could get some pissing contests on with roms. Whoever has the most wins!

[__tiger__]

POINT BLANK........we should have a rom section on this site

[p0Wer]

POINT BLANK........we should have a rom section on this site
No... :/

[Calo]

yes, as your not the one who owns the site and doesn't have to answer to anyone. were greg does.

no copyrighted material should be here, unless its sony firmware.

[__tiger__]

POINT BLANK........we should have a rom section on this site
No... :/
im just sayin what MY OPINION IS<----

but im not loosing any sleep because there isnt any ISO topics on here....I KNOW PLENTY ISO SITES : - )

well keep those sites to yourself.

[Neo_burn]

just stick to those iso sites for games then. No one wants this forum to turn into some shitty ass place with full of trollers and like 10000 accounts with 0 post just so they can come and download crap.

[chipx]

i dont think you can even find direct links to psp games on the net without paying. exept some of those super-secret ftp sites...IWANT IN!!!

[chipx]

i dont think you can even find direct links to psp games on the net without paying. exept some of those super-secret ftp sites...IWANT IN!!!
with a little bit of seasrching i found site (forum( that gives you links to full iso's. no stupid split archives one complete one. the DL speed is good to. (300-500 KB/S)

[Midian]

i dont care. if the site says dont say ROM (like ^Wulfgar^ does) say it like this R0M and he wont detect it (as long as he is offline. i got blacklisted by that punk for a "play on words" :rolleyes:

[GuilT1]

I know this kind of an old thread, but I just wanted to say hosting links is in no way shape or form illegal, being the actual host of the said file is illegal, big ass difference. You can link to child porn and it wouldn't be illegal, search engines do this , this is the search engines job, to find you relevant content and provide you with a link to that content. Iso's and Cso's aren't illegal either until you share them, or burn them onto disc. This website needs to grow a pair and quit censoring and banning people for dumb little shit, I believe this to be Communism. I'd spit on anyone who would stifle my god given freedom to speak my mind especially about something as insignificant as Iso's and Cso's. Whoever runs and maintains this site, I believe their called "mods" or something like that need to quit banning people for talk. Instead they should be banning the tattle talers who run to the mods everytime they don't like something they read. This is a forum, a forum is where people discuss things, censoring those things negates the whole idea of having a forum.

[_VEndeTta]

Yes, I'm sure their service provider will appreciate the difference between hosting
files and linking to them. Why don't you go explain it to them.

[Searingflesh]

But I guess WHERE you share them matters. PSP-Hacks.com can get sued.

[GuilT1]

You cannot be sued for hosting links to other sites that have these files, it's all quite simple. They cannot be sued for links to ANY kind of content. As I have said, every search engine known to man have links to child pornography, they do not get sued. You can and will not be sued for having links to other sites. I am sure though you are right, any internet provider would not appreciate having to determine what is and isn't "legal", but at what point are people going to continue to allow others to dictate who can say what wherever? Surely, any intelligent person can appreciate the complexities of a simple link that can cause so much controversy, but let's not forget, what truly is and what isn't illegal. If psp-hacks.com were to get sued, of course that would be a pain in the ass, but more importantly shouldn't this website also defend itself against what would seemingly be a null lawsuit? This lawsuit would bear no substance because having a link, any link is legal. If you were to be sued, full well knowing you are not commiting a crime, would you just let them roll you over and take your money or would you fight what would essentially be a frivolous lawsuit? There are laws to protect the little people. I love this website as I'm sure all of you do too, but the restrictions that are put forth are needless. There are laws in place to protect speech. So please all you tattle tales that run to the nearest mod to tattle about something that really shouldn't concern you in the first place, keep your worthless tattling to yourself and let people express whatever it is they have to say.....after all speech is protected. If you cannot simply discuss ISO's and CSO's then who's to say we can't start talking about the ol' bait and switch at walmart? As far as I know, that is illegal. Mods on this site pick and choose what they find unappealing and with a few clicks of their keys, they abuse their power. I like this site, I find it very informative and very fun, but I don't like these do gooder mods stroking their ego's when they lock a newb's harmless thread.

[GuilT1]

I do not in any way, shape, or form intend to offend anyone. My apologies to anyone who may be offended. If you are offended then I guess you are that type of mod I was talking about.

[Robert]

PSP-Hacks should link rombomb and ___hunt.(they block that phrase):mrgreenthumbsup:
^
iso

[shinra]

he didnt mean it was illgeal to the US government, ti is illegal on THIS FORUM . Thats the rules and u gotta follow them.
Then that would be the purpose for this suggestion -- make it okay to do so ;) and you'll get more members and more cash. Quite simply… - WHY NOT? I could make countless reference to situations similar to this but they would most occur in a jail cell :P
dont drop the soap!
it is osum

[Scorpus]

But I guess WHERE you share them matters. PSP-Hacks.com can get sued.

[TheDaybreakBoy]

I know this old, but I'd like to say my piece anyway.

The legality or otherwise of linking to Rom sites misses the whole point. No one is going to sue psp-hacks. Won't happen.

What might happen is, google pulls its ads, and then we get a whole lot of whiny posts about "psp-hacks needs money! Donate through paypal!", and the site quality declines because there's not enough money to pay for decent server etc.

Or, the server pulls the site at the request of someone, and while you spend three or four weeks convincing them you're not doing anything illegal your users all disappear.

I've seen both of these happen to sites I love, and it would suck if it happened here. I actually kind of like the fact that we can't link to rom sites; I think it lifts the tone of the site and makes it more about actual hacking rather than just a free-for-all piracy website. Don't kid yourselves - if we allowed links to be posted they would soon dominate the site. It wouldn't be a little section in the bottom of the forums.

No links to Roms also allows more attention to be given to homebrew games, which is a good thing. Any support for legitimate uses of cfw is positive in my opinion.

And finally, for fucks sake, if you can't find the rom sites without someone cut and pasting a link for you you are too stupid to be on the internets, and you deserve to pay $100 a game for the rest of your life.

So basically, we do our thing -hacking -, they do theirs -(il?)legal downloads -and I don't see any good reason to change that.

[jibbz]

I personally don't think their is a need to link to iso's and cso's on this forum

I spend most of my time in PSP-hacks game section of the forum and i try to give psp-hack members information on the latest psp scene releases and if i'm not online someone else will be kind enough to post info on the new games ... just paste the filename from the posts into google you will easily find the iso that you are looking for .
If the file did not hit your fave download site yet be patient these files take a little while to spread over the P2P networks .
If you are looking for torrents , sign up to some private trackers because they normally get the files a lot quicker than open trackers and have better seeder to leecher ratios.
If you have free access to newsgroup servers from your ISP use them... it's a nice fast way to get the latest releases
If you want direct downloads ( RS , MU etc etc ) google around for sites that post links ... they are not hard to find .

For me this is the best PSP site available on the net and i have signed up to many in the past and i think the site would go rapidly downhill if people are begging for links to the latest releases every day

It's not hard to find these games but for me the search is part of the fun .
Happy Hunting ;)

[Mac2468]

I think it should be okay the have links to roms but no iso's, the rule should be if the system uses cartridges and isn't made anymore then it should be ok the link to roms.

[Furypaw]

um... GBA, NDS, etc etc.

[BCman]

Rules are rules, its as simple as that.
Copyright laws differ from country to country, therefore, to play it safe this site has a policy of not allowing links to illegal/pirated material of ANY kind.
and as said above, if u cant use Google and find them urself, u dont deserve to have them.
The Internet has everything there is piracy wise, if u cant find it then too bad, there is no reason for ppl to come here and get spoonfed when they can get it for themselves from hundreds of other sites.
This is a hacking forum, with members devoted to helping others enjoy the benifits of unlocking there psps and using homebrew apps, this is NOT a place to get ur illegal games and whatnot, for that u have Google, use it.

Don't mean to be a pain in the arse, i know this site is for hacking, but psp-hacks.com can only get sued acording to the country / state the website is hosted in. doesnt matter what any other countries laws are..... ie, Toronto

[Furypaw]

if it was hosted here they wouldnt get sued at all XD as we can't sue in our country XD

I have a question...

Why can we provide illegal music/videos/photos through [youtube] or fileupload on this site, but we cannot post links to roms?

It is basically the same thing, we are allowed to embed illegal material on our site, but not post links to a site which contains illegal material? it makes no sense.

[nedthehead]

Youtube is not considered illegal through one reason or another... not sure on the legalities. I guess it's because it's all user-hosted content or something like that.

And we are not supposed to share links to illegal files. The mods will use their discretion to determine a course of action if a link is posted. Or at least, the mods SHOULD use their discretion

but isnt fileupload and rapidshare user hosted content? so why not post links to there?


i guess the advertising thing makes sense, but i just think that it is stupid how so few sites host links but embed youtube.

[Xitherun]

torrents aren't even hosted, so why can't we link those?

lol.
