FreePlay has released his Save Game Exploit and the game that was the culprit here, Archer Maclean’s Mercury. Sony has won this one, as they have patched it in Firmware 6.20. Plus the game itself now requires 6.20 to run, easy way for Sony to block it. So the exploit is now useless. Freeplay has released this anyway, I guess as more proof it was real and working.
FreePlay on this:
You need firmware 6.10 or below, and the game of course. The exploit was patched in 6.20, and the PSN version of the game was updated to require 6.20.
The eLoader isn’t happening at all unless I can get a 6.10 firmware dump from the Go, which this exploit can’t do. It would probably be best to wait until an XMB-based exploit comes along… game-based exploits are too easy to block.

what next hen released?
November 22, 2009 at 7:36 am
No.
Freeplay and Team Typhoon have nothing to do with each other.
November 22, 2009 at 5:32 am
too bad will I guess I will do something about the 6.20
November 22, 2009 at 7:07 am
No
November 22, 2009 at 7:26 am
play iso or what?
November 22, 2009 at 7:35 am
Nope, that’s just an exploit, won’t do anything if you are not developer
November 22, 2009 at 7:49 am
Jeez, do you people read?
November 23, 2009 at 6:20 pm
it’s sad,really. some kid found an exploit that the community goes nuts about, shows us what only HE has,and then sony finds and patches it.i’m happy for one reason:this kid learned his lesson about releasing a demo to the public instead of the actual exploit.
November 22, 2009 at 8:28 am
Finally! There is hope!
November 22, 2009 at 2:59 pm
For Go, no, if you don’t have the game.
For 6.20, no.
For PSP 3k, maybe.
November 22, 2009 at 10:16 am
wait if i get the game download the exploit and do all this
will i ATLEAST BE ABLE TO PLAY HOMEBREW like what they showed in one of there videos?
if so this is greate
P.S i have psp3000 version 5.51 and so i can use UMD which probably requires 6.10 or lower to run so i should be ok
PLEASE somebody reply to this like PSPFAN would really help
November 22, 2009 at 10:29 am
yes it will work i think as if umd requires fw below 6.10 or 6.10 then u can run homebrews on your psp any model……………………………………please correct me if i am wrong….
November 22, 2009 at 10:43 am
Well im hoping your right!
Just need someone to prove on youtube that u can play homebrew with this exploit, by pressing HOME button twice quickly ( nobody has done a video yet on youtube )
if it does work and u can play homebrew then i’m going to buy the game straight away and already downloaded the exploit!
November 22, 2009 at 2:56 pm
Exploit is not a HEN or eLoader.
November 22, 2009 at 10:34 am
Hey i was playing with this exploit opening it just checkin with every game in my game N+ it’s cso its showed hello world same as in the video………..i hav psp 1000 so don’t know it will work on any other version and i hav 5.00m33-4 ….. please help if it will lead to anything or just a flop
pspfan help me…………………
November 22, 2009 at 10:45 am
Maybe someone should make a downgrader to 5.03. At least we should once we figure out how to run homebrew.
November 22, 2009 at 10:48 am
And by homebrew, I mean unsigned programs.
Since the Hello World program looks like the only thing that can be run on it currently.
November 22, 2009 at 10:57 am
hey ADMIN!!freeplay REVEALED the explot from team c + d even its not done yet!!….read this article from c + d team..HE IS TRAITOR!!http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=fr&tl=en&u=pspgen.com
translated in english
November 22, 2009 at 11:08 am
his is NOT his work, it is by Fajita and the other psp hackers! Freeplay stole it from them, then claims it as his own, then acts like he is working on an eloader, when he is LYING. HE told Sony about the game/exploit, so it would be blocked, then he releases it like the jigs up and sony figured it out! He doesn’t deserve ***** towards him from this so called “discovery”. goto this link for more info: http://www.maxconsole.net/forums/showthread.php?t=144787
November 22, 2009 at 1:51 pm

November 22, 2009 at 3:00 pm
Seriously, READ THE SHIT FIRST before comment.
November 22, 2009 at 4:30 pm
BIGLAKE IS A FUCKING GENIUS! HE’S RIGHT! READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE BEFORE COMMENTING ‘OMG OMG I CAN PLAY HOMEBREW LAWLZ!’! MERCURY NOW REQUIRES 6.20!!!
November 22, 2009 at 4:51 pm
HACKERS OUT THERE
can u make a eloader for all the people with psp3000 6.10- i mean team typhoon was able to get hoebrew to play from this eploit, so that means u guys can find a way to play HOMEBREW aswell
HOMEBREW could eventually loader to a CFWE xD
November 22, 2009 at 8:03 pm
Why you ask here?
Go ask hackers.
November 22, 2009 at 4:52 pm
This is actually a good exploit if you have the game which I do, and I’m going to start working on this right away. I have a psp 3001 with 6.10 ofw loaded. Sony was going to patch this from the gamesave exploit from the first of the year. People give sony to much credit like this update was born last night or something.
November 22, 2009 at 5:05 pm
Do you mean as in making a CFWe? Or just using it?
November 22, 2009 at 6:09 pm

November 22, 2009 at 7:55 pm

November 22, 2009 at 8:05 pm
Nope. It’s just a plain Exploit with Hello World.
November 22, 2009 at 11:11 pm

November 23, 2009 at 3:08 am

November 23, 2009 at 5:59 am

November 23, 2009 at 6:32 am
that was harsh. XD
November 23, 2009 at 7:48 pm
Just update your firmware and Go play UMD if you want to play that bad -_-
pspslimhacks.com is not here to help you play pirated games.
So get out if you wanna keep talk about downloaded pirated game.
November 23, 2009 at 6:19 pm
Go buy your games instead.
November 23, 2009 at 3:10 am
halo
just want to know.is this update that will allow to play tekken 6 iso?????????????
and where to download that game?reply plssssssssssssssss
November 23, 2009 at 4:55 am
tekken6 is not out yet.. anyway ,this is not an update but exploit instead
November 23, 2009 at 6:01 am
is out already. i’ve downloaded it already.but did not work on mine gen d2
November 23, 2009 at 6:30 am
o well, so i guess 6.20 is needed for it to work..
November 23, 2009 at 8:49 am
yes…….where can we get that update?
November 23, 2009 at 6:20 pm
You mean 6.10?
November 23, 2009 at 5:08 am
actually TEKKEN6 PSP-iND is out….and as pspslimhacks predicted, GEN-D2 is now useless…it requires 6.20
As for the rat?? TeamTyphoon are the rats thats for sure! they always like to express how much they kiss Sony ass, etc etc.
November 23, 2009 at 6:20 pm
I doubt they have the right connections.
November 23, 2009 at 5:10 am
Selfishness leads to nothing, why didn’t you just release it before. SIgh…
November 23, 2009 at 5:45 am
If Freeplay reveals his game exploit, it will be blocked in 24 hour.
So, if he do that, he’s just wasting good exploit.
He’s not being selfish but trying to act smarter.
November 23, 2009 at 5:54 am
i guess thats that, sony security gets even tougher every now and then so i wonder if the developers(i mean hackers) have something to actually get through 6.20 ..
November 23, 2009 at 11:30 am
It’s not even Freeplay’s exploit, he’s just an attention seeking idiot.
November 23, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Not quite. He was given access to a private SVN, and the source was sitting there on the root. He wasn’t told not to use what was in plain sight.
November 23, 2009 at 8:29 pm
Will this help people like me who have a psp 3000 over ver 5.50
November 23, 2009 at 10:47 pm
Yes it will, I tested this on my psp 3000 firmware 6.10 and was able to run the hello world program, and the registry dumper, unfortunately I don’t know how to edit anything there but if you do you can also change the registry on your psp. I have tried running other homebrew in .bin format by renaming it to the same as the files included in the exploit but I was unable to run anything else. Luckily I was able to pickup mercury at a local gamestop for $6.99
November 24, 2009 at 12:38 pm
You know, I’ve been coming here for a few years, and I’m so sick of this that I had to register just to comment.
CFW IS DEAD.
Not to say I don’t use it. It’s just cheaper for Sony to pay off hackers than it is to worry about piracy. Common sense. So unless someone with the skill and time comes along who doesn’t love money as much as the rest of the world (good luck), chances are there won’t be any new cfw anytime soon.
There. At least that’s out.
November 24, 2009 at 9:38 pm
he deleted his account on youtube ^_^
November 26, 2009 at 4:15 pm
o_O
I just noticed that.
November 26, 2009 at 4:22 pm
Actually his account is still open. He’s just removed all his videos and disabled comments.
November 24, 2009 at 11:38 pm
The GO should be left alone, there’s so much that can be corrected with the rest of the versions but the problem with that is it’s not a name builder for those looking to make a name for them selves. It would draw bigger fame say some one decided to work on the issues at hand with CFW and PSN support instead of destroying future ventures. Don’t get me wrong I value the work and time put in to development and I respect others for theirs as well but there’s so much that can be done with what we have in front of us.
November 27, 2009 at 11:05 am
maybe this will lead to a cfw enabler for psp 3000 fw 5.51 and up.
February 6, 2010 at 11:38 am
hey i have psp 3004 v5.51 which is official firmware if i will download that patch so i can play game like eboot games plz tell me im new around here plz plz plz plz plz plz
