| | | | v.1.5
Currently, I have a v.2.5 psp using the GTA exploit to run homebrew.
I'm starting to want to sell my psp in return for a 1.5 psp. I primarily am really wanting to switch over simply because of the Super Smash Bros homebrew game. Also, how well are backuped games running on v.1.5 psps now?
What are the primary drawbacks of using a v.1.5 psp? |

| | | | What is AVC video?
Also, I hear most backup games are still unplayable. Like, how is the playability of Socom?
Also, if it was possible to get a 'mint' v.1.5, what is so good about downgrading to a v.1.0 psp? |

| | | | A 1.5 PSP is very rare to find. I think it is well worth it although do not do anything that messes with the flash0 files in you psp. |

Points: 16.78 Donate | | | I heard that games play better as ISO's and there is hardly any loading time compared to loading off of the UMD. I am getting a 2.0 on monday and downgrading straight away. Also I used to have a 1.0 (for 1 day because my dad updated it) and the homebrew on there and also on 1.5 is brilliant just because you have kernal access and can load straight from the menu (trust me loading from the menu is great). And the drawbacks are it is possible to brick a 1.5 so I recommend using no applications that access the flash unless you need to (maybe if the no k-xploit patch could be flashed to the flash) or you really want to. |

| | | | What games use flash? |

| | | | Flash0 can be written when changing the font and the background on a 1.5 etc |
