yup home brew is the way but be careful which firmware you get as a lot are buggy! the official psp firmware are fine for free games there are free flash games that work out there n not to get on my high horse but im fed up of (downloaded/ illegal) games as for one yeah theyll run faster of a memory card but at the same point if we all did that then game developers 1, come up with more advanced n complex security which will undoubtebly slow games down 2 may dissapear completely n with no official support for hardware then well be stuck trawling through thousands of crap home brew to find that one wee gem to only find it works with a different firmware. hope thats not too harsh but thought it was my time to be the grumpy old man pissing on someones bonfire lol
