This is a strange paragraph.
On September 23rd, 2007, 3.71 M33 was released. Dark_AleX revealed that he was, in fact, the main member of Team M33 along with four others. He has also delivered a universal unbricker for both fat and slim PSPs, which can install the PSP firmware v1.50 which allows for the running of homebrew, and also the custom firmware 3.71 M33 which implements the same features as the 3.71 official Sony firmware, but can also run 1.50 homebrew applications, as well as illegal pirated PSP and PS1 (sometimes referred to as PSX) games. For 3.71 M33 there is a 1.50 kernel (now 1.50 version 2) which allows the running of 1.50 homebrew applications.
How many times does it have to be explained that having games on your memory stick does not specifically mean they are illegal? Redsox7897 (talk) 16:12, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Redirect?
Maybe this article should redirect to PlayStation Portable homebrew just like Fanjita does. This article was deleted before, and now is tagged for deletion again. EXTER7 (talk) 03:55, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Keep decision
I'm really chuffed that the decision was to keep this page - a previous version was deleted and this page was recently speedy deleted as it shared a name with the original. I appealed against this and it was kindly reinstated so that a deletion discussion could take place, the result of which was a keep. However, there is still work to do as the page could do with having some parts re-written. The suggestion to redirect to PlayStation Portable homebrew is interesting. While I am against the suggestion (as Dark Alex himself is too important for that in my opinion), we need to make sure this page doesn't just become a list of his firmwares.

That is an interesting idea indeed, but I think the small tag at the top "For more information see (insert article name here)" is a better idea.TheSilenceOfNoOne (talk) 16:12, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] JAXda and acccc's edits
JAXda has recently made significant edits to this article, cutting out the breakdown of several different custom firmwares. I think this is very sensible as it successfully focuses the article on the biography of Dark Alex, rather than reciting everything from the history of PSP hacking. acccc revirted this back it would seem. Personally I preferred the version JAXda left us with so I'm going to try to change it back. It would be good to get some dicussion on THIS talk page about which version people think is best, rather than repeatedly swapping between the two. Skip1337 (talk) 21:39, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Repeated vandalism by 82.36.164.218
Looking at the history of the article it is clear this user is repeatedly vandalising the page. Well done to those that have followed this up (including a bot haha!). If anyone sees an edit on this page by this user that looks wrong, please use the undo feature. Genuine updates or useful edits are great, but the user is clearly a time waster. If, like me, you haven't been using wikipedia long you might not know you can view previous versions of the page by clicking article, then history and then the date.

[edit] Sick Spider
I've deleted the line about sick spider as it was unverified, I've never heard of this AND it was gramatically incorrect. Feel free to add it in again if you can source it. Skip1337 14:36, 25 May 2008
