PSP web browsing, sort of

I thought some of you might be interested, it's more fun/interesting than practical. I don't have a PSP but it's pretty cool.
Here's a Link

Yeah, pretty crazy how someone hacked into that game. I wish someone could hack into the OS

.

They didn't really hack the game, they just figured out how the game accesses the web and made the proxy server give it the stuff they want.

Yeh it is really easy to do what i said before and set your DNS settings to that one guys site. It will have your start page as a portal with an API URL bar!!!
Pretty awesome.
Now just for a real browser from Sony.

I really wont be using my psp once i get one to browse the internet, ill leave that to my pocket pc

I thought the same thing but the PSP has a nice big screen for web browsing so , might as well use it a little bit, even if its not the best.

mrp04 · 03-28-05, 10:22 PM

but you cant touch

isnt it hard to go from box to box to type stuff in or just plain old typing the url of the web page you want?

Yeh probably unless they made the joystick into some type of cursor. Then it might work fairly well. But the Screen resolution isn't exactly the best. No Vga. So it will be hard to choose which to use hehe.

Now I was thinking about the WipeOut Pure browser and who makes an advanced Web Browser JUST to download new updates. This seems kinda perplexing. I'm starting to wonder if there is some friendly coder there who decided to make this Web Browser. Or maybe its pre release version of Sony's Browser (doubtful.) Either way it seems interesting.

ahh thsi reminds me of the good ol' days with those numerous dreamcast hacks

roboto · 03-28-05, 11:31 PM

hehe yeah. Reminds me of Xbox modding. I love modding consoles, It is so exciting when you finally get it to work and are amazed at what you have done!
