PSP is gaining popularity now-a-days among youngsters, and PSP hacking is a process we ought to know something about.
Ripping a PSP UMD
PSP fillers can be used for dumping UMD directly to the memory stick which creates an ISO-9660 compliant image so there is no need for USB port connection. There is one point to remember before playing that “No UMD” mode is to be set. This ripping process is really worth as there is no need for switching the USB DEVICE to UMD Disc and then copying the data from UMD to PC and then into the ISO folder.
Running a multiplayer game with only one UMD game disk is quite challenging and is perhaps the best of all hacks!
1.50 Kernel-enabled homebrew, on PSP having custom firmware 3.90 M33 is released now. How exciting! How to upgrade is really cool! Copying the folder to PSP/GAME and executing it does all. There are also 1.50 Kernel Add-ons v2 updates available which you must be aware of:-
Firstly there is an added support for memory sticks that have memory more than 4 GB. There is also a download available for Add-on v2 for 3.90 M33 at the following URL: http://www.psp-hacks.com/file/1414. Secondly the black out which appeared when recovering from sleep mode is now fixed.

Do you know that we can actually use PSP for saving Xbox games too! A word of caution! Before continuing with the entire process, please do create a back up of your PSP saves or else you may end up in a severe loss!! The process is really simple:-
Fetch a USB adapter for the Xbox controller and after firing the Xbox go the memory area. After that a connection of PSP USB cable is required to USB controller adapter. Let the PSP be in USB mode and after that when Xbox detects it the next step is “Erase”.
Now you are ready to copy any Xbox game to your PSP. Isn’t the process so simple and exciting!
If you are still lacking in Xbox games to copy then consider a price comparison site to help you select the right games.
