Action Replay is cheating itself

Remember Datel’s Action Replay for the PSP? Upon inspection by Dark_AleX and VoidPointer, it appears that the $40 device actually contains the IPL used in Pandora within the supplied memory stick.

Datel’ Action Replay does uses code that isn’t from itself, code that isn’t distributed to be used the way they use it anyway. The code involving this terms is, for first instance, the Pandora forged IPL block, and on second place but of course not less important, Booster’s IPL SDK.

Datel doesn’t seem to give any credit to the original Pandora developers at all.

Here’s some more interesting things to note; from Alek’s blog:

• It has been confirmed that Datel’ Action replay does interfere on the Custom Firmware code
• They use a bigger memory footprint due to the graphics involved in it, and it’s interesting also to mention that they had a pretty small database, that being compared it to cwcheat one, this first one isn’t even a database tbh.

So what do you think?
I suggest sticking to CWCheat for those who have CFW.
