Sony's Playstation Vita To Be Developer Friendly?
Playstation Vita, also named PS Vita, is Sony's latest portable game console that
got gamers worldwide excited about. Other than its features and super realistic
graphics that will blow your mind, there's also a chance that PS Vita will be
developer friendly. This comes as quite a surprise since Sony has been known to
combat the use of homebrew games and applications on its device in attempt to
prevent users from running ISO and CSO (in other words, pirated) games on its
consoles. Homebrew games and applications have so far only able to be run on PS
Vita's predecessor, all Sony PSP consoles, if a user has a custom firmware instead
of Sony's official firmware.
There are a few different custom firmwares out there, namely M33, GEN,
prometheus, and a few others, developed by Sony PSP independent hackers and
developers. Having these custom firmwares as your system also means your PSP's
are no longer eligible for warranty and protection from Sony. Sony has been
known not to really like the use of custom firmware on their Sony PSP, ...
... and even
at one point conducted a survey asking its users 'why' do they hack their PSP or
run a custom firmware (also known as CFW) on their PSP's. For later models of
Sony PSP, namely PSP 3000 and PSP Go, Sony has been putting extra efforts to
prevent these version of consoles from being able to run homebrew games and
apps, or hacked in any way. However, independent hackers and developers
developed a workaround to this problem, which is HEN or chickHEN, where even if
users cannot switch their firmware to custom firmwares, they're able to play ISO
and CSO games, which can be found everywhere online for free, on their PSP.
In July 2011, during Develop Conference in Brighton, the Head of Developer
Services of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe talked about PS Vita hardware,
and also about various software development tools and technologies. When asked
about homebrew capability of PS Vita, Sony replied that they would be disclosing
more information regarding that very soon. This probably hints that PS Vita might
be developer friendly, something that most people have been waiting to hear from
Sony.
