The engineers at Sony can't be too thrilled with fighting the constant battle against PSP hackers, issuing firmware updates that "strengthen security" in a futile attempt to curb piracy and homebrew applications. Going by a recent survey commissioned by Sony Computer Entertainment, passed on to us by a reader who was asked to take part, the company seems to be looking into the reasons why PSP owners are opening up their portables.
Sony reps call the survey a part of "ongoing PSP consumer research", attempting to learn more about the size of the PSP hacking population and the mentality behind the behavior. Questions like "Do you know of anyone who has "hacked," or modified, transferred and customized their PSP firmware and software?" were included elsewhere in the poll.
We're following up with Sony to learn more about its research.
-------------------------
Because it takes less than 10 minutes to hack one? For those that don't know it is super easy to hack a PsP with my cousin showing me so just last week. Only thing is that you do need a decent size memory card to put games in though now you can buy the 8 gig one for a couple of hundred bucks. Could get one with less space as the only huge game is God of War at about 1.5 gigs so you can get a smaller stick and just erase if you want to play another game. Your saved files will not be deleted.
