Thanks for all the reply's guys. Looks like I'll have to just wait until 6.00 CFW comes out.

yeah, i think so. i started a thread on this before i found yours. i used to be able to hex edit psp game demos to run on the firmware i had. it used to be easy: just open it in a hex editor and change the version number in the opening lines.
but i tried that with a newer ISO and it's way different now. oh well, like you said...wee probably just have to wait until there's a new CFW or a brilliant hacker makes a breakthrough...whichever comes first.

i also posted this on the thread i started:
well, wee all knew they were doing something differently. i just confirmed that it's something different in addition to previous firmware checks...
downloaded the peace walker demo from IGN. tried running it without any editing. the gameboot didn't even load...instead i got the message that i needed at least Sony OFW 5.51 in order to run the demo.
so i went into the EBOOT and found the firmware check (!). in the opening lines of the file there is a very clear "551" string. changed it to 500. replaced the old eboot with my new one and...GAMEBOOT LOADS. then, heartbreak: still getting the error after the gameboot plays "The game could not be started". 2 firmware checks? guess it's easier to add a layer of security rather than to fix the old one :-P
