Sony PSP Piracy Protection Patch

July 6th 2005 | Games Consoles

Sony has responded to hackers who cracked piracy protections on its PlayStation Portable in the United States. The crack enabled PSP users to download games from pirate Web sites onto removable memory sticks and then to insert the games to run on the PSP.

The world’s top maker of video game consoles rolled out a downloadable fix for the software flaw that opened the door for the latest attack by hackers, who quickly cracked the original version of the PSP shortly after its release in Japan late last year.
