If you want to be legit, just upgrade it.

If you want to expand the use/lifetime of your PSP, hack it.
+Download games.
+Homebrew.
+Emulators.
+Programs to enhance your PSP experience.
+Custom themes/XMB bars.



Before I hacked my PSP, I barely used it. Now, I use it daily.


So, IMO, you should hack it. If you need any info about hacking your PSP, feel free to PM me.

The only downside is bricking it, but if you're carefull it won't happen so go for it.

Well i've used the pandora and the old methods and i haven't bricked a single psp, the only time i've ever seen one brick is cause the battery was damaged so when it was flashing it died or something.

You do know that custom firmware has been following the actual releases's damn well. Right now 4.01 M33 is out and they are looking into adding more features, and one of those being save states for psp games. They also rigged the network update so you update to the next custom firmware through the PSP itself. Really good stuff.

No reason not to go custom firmware. Not to mention there is no way to brick your PSP as long as you have Pandora's battery.

This all looks very interesting. I've just heard of Pandora's Battery right now and I wouldn't have considered hacking it until now. I don't even use it. It just sits there. D:
