Some of you might have imagined all your Christmas’s came at once when you saw that some large PSP sites had posted a video that seemed to good to be true? Of a PSP-3000 / TA-088v3 being hacked on video. I thought I better break it too you since those sites have yet to do so. Its been proven a fake. Sorry its been reviewed in detail and it clear its a fake, the memory card starts out as a 1GB but magically appears later as a 16gb when removed?

Source of the fake video? PSPGen - Shame on them for posting what is clearly a fake video of a PSP-3000 being hacked without checking its validity first.

Update: The video on YouTube has been removed by the owner……..

Merry Christmas from the PSP Slim Hacks team, wishing you a happy and safe Christmas and may santa leave you a PSP or new game under the tree!

News going around that Sony is already working on a PSP-4000 and PSP2 have been quickly denied by John Koller of SCE.

He explained that it was a misinterpretation, and says that Sony is urging developers to move away from the UMD platform and onto digital distribution of games through the PlayStation Store. “No plans for a PSP2 are underway.”

This should clear up any thoughts you may have had of the PSP2/PSP-4000 rumours.

Dark_AleX has updated his Despertar del Cementerio tool to version 8.
This will now allow users to create MMS sticks that go directly to 5.00 M33-4, which appears to be the only change from DCv7.

Note that this will NOT work with PSP-3000 models and those with TA-088v3 motherboards, despite the new TOOL battery from Datel.

Not much in the way of PSP news. But here’s something for the old rumor mill thanks to Eurogamer.

Sony plans to refresh the PlayStation Portable product line with a PSP-4000 model in late 2009 and launch a true successor - a PSP2, if you like - later.

Publishing sources, speaking to Eurogamer, were unable to provide any further detail on next year’s update, which will presumably follow this year’s PSP-3000 in taking an iterative approach. The PSP-3000 launched this October and followed a 2000-series model, the first Slim & Lite, in September 2007.

Even fewer details were available on the PSP successor, but we’re told that developers are already working on games.

Sony has not ruled out either scenario, despite SCEE president David Reeves’ assertion in MCV last week that “there are currently no plans for a PSP2″. “I go to Tokyo quite a lot and no one has referred to it - I think they have their hands full at the moment,” he said, non-committally.

Sony UK told Eurogamer today that it would not comment on rumour and speculation.
