The engineers at Sony can't be too thrilled with fighting the constant battle against PSP hackers, issuing firmware updates that "strengthen security" in a futile attempt to curb piracy and homebrew applications. Going by a recent survey commissioned by Sony Computer Entertainment, passed on to us by a reader who was asked to take part, the company seems to be looking into the reasons why PSP owners are opening up their portables.

Sony reps call the survey a part of "ongoing PSP consumer research", attempting to learn more about the size of the PSP hacking population and the mentality behind the behavior. Questions like "Do you know of anyone who has "hacked," or modified, transferred and customized their PSP firmware and software?" were included elsewhere in the poll.

Wee're following up with Sony to learn more about its research.

Personally, if I got one of these surveys, I think I'd probably just draw a HUGE hand that takes up the whole page, giving the middle finger, and turn that in.  If it were anonymous that is :)



By the way, that isn't the whole survey. It is about 20 pages long. This is one of the end pages.

Sony attempts to be smart; fails hard

yeh also the image tag is broken

thanks sensei

i hacked my PSP because it was a piece of boring poo poo.
if it weren't for DAX the PSP would have failed long back.

lol at sony attempt to "know" how bad is psp piracy out there.

well I'll answer:

1) Rebel? what a cheesy question? What is so rebellious about it?

2) Impresses Others... yeah Noobs. Real people EXPECT you to know how to hack it. (occasional things not included)

3) Get away with it. LMAO! Yup! cause the InterPol has bugged the PSP and tracks people down if they hack it!

4) Obviously... first real question . A straight 6/5.

5) Damn rite. I'd like to see anyone come and tell me to stop. another 7/5.

6) Read #3  score: -10

7) Till some extent... as long as it doesn't promote piracy... so 3.

8) Outsmart? No... improvize! 1

9) the noobiest question of the millennium. score: -infinity

10) Sort of... but wee already know the way round..  2

11) a straight 5/5

12) me and others.... (i'd be amazing if DAX was actually a Sony Developer) 5.


mmm... boring. Sony+ smart ideas= EPIC PHAILURE

i very much want to fill out th survey...since ive been modifying the theme files i find it more fun to hex edit and play in photosohp that i do to play games.

Dear SONY,

Wee hack our PSP consoles, because you stubbornly refuse to listen to us, and give us the features/freedoms wee want.

Wee have decided to take things into our own hands...

It's a shame it had to be this way.
Maybe you should start listening to your customers demands for PS3, while you still have control of it...
