This is awesome guys check this out http://www.ps2nfo.com/ Update: For those interested, we have received confirmation that the Dynarox dumps were done using the same single EBOOT.PBP (which can be converted to a .PRX) to do the sector-based dumps as Paradox used. Basically here's a little behind-the-scene "what happened"... the GODS @ PDX gave the WipeOut (USA) release guy their dumper to do the dump as being Euro-based they didn't have access to any USA titles, and unfortunately he leaked it to a friend who (with or without his permission) did the other dumps under Dynarox to gain access to the benefits intended only for REAL sceners. On the bright side, chances are Dynarox will continue to do more dumps using the Paradox utility since they are located in the US. Some other interesting tidbits for those who didn't already know... ALL the dumps are done using a RETAIL PSP (no DEV hardware is required) and the game "loader" will likely be in the form of a BiOS replacement which will work with ALL version PSP units... v1.00, v1.50, v1.51 so don't worry there guys. Why has this information been published here? We have been requested to post it by the real scene GODS to let the PSP community know what's really going on. Of course we applaud Dynarox for sharing, however, it will now not go unnoticed just HOW they did these recent UMD dumps. Today we have some VERY cool news indeed... warez group Dynarox has released the following new PSP UMD dumps with an interesting quote from their NFO files as well: * Need_For_Speed_Underground_Rivals_JAP_PSP-Dynarox Need For Speed Underground Rivals JAP FileList.txt 843 MB (884,867,072 bytes) * Ridge_Racer_USA_PSP-Dynarox Ridge Racer USA FileList.txt 864 MB (906,362,880 bytes) * Lumines_USA_PSP-Dynarox Lumines USA FileList.txt 200 MB (209,977,344 bytes) * Twisted_Metal_Head_On_USA_PSP-Dynarox Twisted Metal Head On USA FileList.txt 799 MB (838,729,728 bytes) * Gretzky_NHL_2k5_USA_PSP-Dynarox Gretzky NHL 2005 FileList.txt 146 MB (153,223,168 bytes) * Smart_Bomb_USA_PSP-Dynarox Smart Bomb USA FileList.txt 113 MB (119,406,592 bytes) Quote: Installation In a really near future, a loader will be released to make games work via the memory card. We have confirmed the PSP UMD dumps are legitimate, and feel free to examine the FileList.txt generated from each of the UMD dumps above. We have now posted the iSO Image sizes above as well, and please use THIS Forum thread for all related discussion.
that's excellent news to hear! i have recently acquierd wipeout iso so i would like to try it out, depending on those game sizes i would have to buy a 2GB stick to fit a movie AND a game...
so we'll very soon have a way to load them. But in terms of MAKING isos: can it be done on a 1.50 or can only Japanese 1.0 PSPs make isos of the games?
But one game takes up one memorycard (usually) and memorycards are more expensive than games. You can always delete a game and replace it, but it's quite frustrating. You can only fit many crappy games to one ms, like lumines, puzzlepobble and other games like that.
arcanix, have you been keeping up with the NEWS?? i'll give all you guys a couple sites so you dont ask questions.. http://psphacker.com http://ps2nfo.com http://psp-spot.com http://psphacks.net http://psp-hacks.com you can get loaders at psp-spot.com and psp-hacks.com
Yes, but I meant these new dynarox dumps. Most of them can't be loaded yet. But soon wab releases a loader that runs iso's from ms, and all games work, without umd I guess.
Finally, poor people can get PSP's. (just a joke showing how despreate we all are to get games with out paying)
A bit of a newbie question- my 1gb ms is in the mail, and when it arrives, should i technically be able to use the umd dumper to rip, say for example, lumines onto my ms and then use the recent lumines launcher to play it? Is there anything else that must be done? I ask this because my ultimate question is once wab comes out with the new launcher, shouldnt we be able to just rip a umd to an iso and we're set to go? Would there be any more steps? This way there would be no need to get iso's, because we could just easily make them ourselves, correct?
Lyriquid (Newbie) Its under the psp menu to the far right, it is under system settings and it is called "format memory stick" arcanix (Senior Member) But that one memory stick could hold multiple games. So you are saving lots and lots of money.
But many crappy games, like Lumines without sound (THat sucks). But it is cool that that can happen. Like Coded arms doesn't suck and it's only 100 MB when I downloaded it!
I know this might be a pain, but how about "borrowing" a game, ripping the full thing to the MS, then storing games on your HD. Then you can select the game that you want to play, copy it to the MS, and there you've got it. If you do the ripping yourself with the dumper, wouldnt it be a fully operational version (assuming that this new wab loader is what they say it is...)?
