PSP "hacker" Dark-AleX releases Time Machine for previous firmware updates


For those of you who do more with your PSP than intended by creator Sony, then chances are you have a constant struggle. Sony keeps pumping out new firmware upgrades, each with something useful to your PSP, but all that extra software shouldn't just become void.

Of course, there's nothing that can be done about that, save for having someone within Sony leaking information to the PSP hackers. But what it also does is makes the previous firmware upgrades disappear, meaning any past updates are hard to find online. Chances are that even if you find one, you'll have a hard time finding the rest.

Not anymore. Dark-AleX, widely known for his PSP exploits, just released Time Machine. No, it doesn't back up your data on that mac you don't own. It's a full list of every firmware update ever given for the PSP so you can play off any one of them.

So if you're into living on the edge, being in command too much or just like having a really customized PSP, check this out.
