    10 best hack? hmm geohotz, dark_alex & total_noob is on the list i’m sure 😀 here’s looking forward to a very good year

    • DS_Marine says:

      hmm I think he’s referring to 10 actual hacks, not hackers.
      But I wonder if those will be chosen based on the final product usefulness, the cleverly involved on getting it to work, or maybe both..

    2nd!!!

    Thank you thank you, 2nd is where the action is.
    So first off thanks k3nn i wouldn’t of been 2nd if it wasn’t for you.
    And secondly i would like to thank my laptop and my ISP, none of this would have been possible without them.

    ps4 and psvita

  4. NNNRT says:

    DA’s M33 & TN’s TN-V. And the PS3 hack for PS2 games.

  5. naki says:

    I enjoyed the Metal Gear articles, looking foward to these Acid!

  6. Abdou005 says:

    Wooow can’t wait :D. I will choose TN V for ps vita as the best hack.

  7. Acid_Snake says:

    All of you asking for TN-V, let me make it clear: I do not care about the product of a hack, I care about the cleverness of the hack or the stupidity of the console maker that allowed such hack. For all I know, TN-V itself is the product of a hack, not a hack itself. I could care less if the hack produces nothing at all, if it’s clever, or if it was a stupid as heck move from the console-maker, then I’m gonna talk about it. The main problem with TN-V is its closeness: while I can review TN-V as the product of a hack, I cannot certify that such hack was clever at all, specially with something like TN-V that probably requires many hacks to get working, and most of them are probably standard hacks when it comes to PSP hacking. Again, TN-V as a product is awesome, but I simply don’t know *** about how TN got it working to make a proper blog post, and quite frankly, TN’s work is still just a rework of what Dark_Alex did, doesn’t matter if he has rewritten the code from scratch, the ideas and documentation were already created, from scratch, by Dark_Alex, and even so I’m not gonna talk about Dark_Alex, cause there has been hacks before him that were either clever or a stupid mistake.

    • Getter says:

      This seems to be one big insult to TN. Why don’t you write your own custom firmware or release your own of what is probably the closest thing we have to a real vita hack?

      • mma_jedi says:

        It’s not an insult, just honesty. Trust me, I feel like Total_Noob is Santa for bringing us presents but the elves made them, not Santa.

        @Acid_Snake..I look forward to reading said articles.

        Happy New Year gamerz!!

      • Acid_Snake says:

        You have no f*cking idea what you are saying. I chat with TN a lot and greatly respect him as a dev, but even TN himself has expressed that all of his great work was possible thanks to Dark_Alex, and even DAX’s work was possible due to clever hacks and dumb mistakes that all combined allowed him to dig into the PSP software and hardware, and those are the hacks I will talk about: the hacks made by devs before DAX and mistakes made by Sony that ALLOWED the PSP scene to even exist.

      • CrashSerious says:

        If I may, as one who has produced a small quantity of stuff for the PS3. I didn’t read this as a insult to TN at all. Simply a statement of why TN-V as a product wasn’t a HACK in itself.

        If I may, by that very logic (IMHO) the RSODfix tool and other things I released shouldn’t be considered.

        hehehe, unsig tool excluded. that was a STUPID move on sony’s part simply shifting standard ascii 4 bits as encryption. Yet… no one ever did anything with it. 🙁

  8. soulrazor says:

    pandora battery, letter bomb, and free mcboot all of these deserves to be at that top 10 imo but only acid knows for sure 🙂

  9. mma_jedi says:

    Hack nomination….

    Haven’t checked it out yet, but Qwikrazor’s PspAdhoc looks awesome..play adhoc games over the net,makes psp think you’re in the same room with other player(s).

  10. Gie says:

    The Old Console King, PS2.. Many years has passed but still difficult to be emulated..

    • Acid_Snake says:

      Free MC Boot was both a clever hack and a stupid mistake, so expect to see it.

      • Job says:

        Looking forward to this one 🙂 FMCB made a lot of people I know quite happy.
        I also used a lot of emulators and did quite some free FMCB installs via post service. Asking money for free hacks like that is a scam 😉

  17. CNPalmer says:

    I would include the NeoGeoX hack in the list. I’ve got some tutorials coming up that explain a lot behind it.
