Evangelion: Jo – First Anti Custom Firmware game.


Evangelion: Jo - The first anti Custom Firmware game?

: Jo - The first anti Custom Firmware game?

PSPGen have posted that a new Japanese game, called : Jo scans your RAM and detects if you have any type of custom firmware or not. If it detects you have custom firmware. The game will freeze displaying the screen above with some lovely classical musicplayed in the background. It also doesn’t seem that you could bypass this check, since its scanning the RAM….

So Sony have taken things a step further with Anti Custom Firmware games.

Digg!

    Out of all the psp games I downloaded, I found only the ported games to be fun. Why? Cause they are classics! I will post again if I ever come across one interesting PSP game.

    Who cares how secure you make the new ones?!

    Go back to focusing on ps1/ps2 games if you want to truly succeed.

        The developers take years to make the game, Sony licenses the game, developers pay Sony to publish the game. You download the game, Sony loses publishing money, Developers waste their time making it.

        It’s Namco Bandai Games.

        If you guys remember, there’s a Japanese game – Idol Master SP,
        similar things happen.

        And it’s the same publisher.

        So we can expect the same senario from Soul Calibur and Tekken 6.

    This sucks for us, but its finally good to see sony isnt the dumbasses that people take them for. But this realy sucks if no workaround wil be found. Cant you make an app that starts the game in its own part of the ram and blocks it off from the rest of the ram, albiet plugins would probably not work with the game, but we would still be able to play it.
