Gaming MGS: Peace Walker

[prowler]

Reports are just in that Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker demo has been released via PSN in Hong Kong. The demo is reported to indeed be working on 5.50 GEN-D3 and 5.03 GEN-C so thats all good. And its a decent demo too, four demo missions to play and has ad-hoc connectivity

Fantastic! I'm going to download this immediately!

 

[raulpica]

Well, I guess it's time to upgrade my trusty old 5.00M33

 

[Baggesen]

Works fine (patched of course) on 5.00 m33. (I used Eboot Exchange 2.6).

I've never played a MGS game in my entire life...
...
I tried it once, but I just couldn't get into it.

 

[p1ngpong]

Oh cool, Im assuming its not in English though right?


If its not I will give it a miss, I would just get pissed off missing out on whats going on in the story.

 

[prowler]

Yes its english

I can't blame you, I like them, but sometimes they are a hassle. "Oh no, some guy saw my foot, now I have to wait 2 minutes for the 18 guards he called to leave, or I can let them kill me and reload, losing another 3 minutes."

At the same time, when the game does work properly, it can be pretty fun.

Only works on 5.50 GEN D3 and 5.03 GEN C.
Just like the new games.

 

[Inferno]

Do not work on 5.03 GEN-C for me.
Do I have to convert the demo to iso?

Demos do not work like that.
Turn off all your plugins.

 

[Inferno]

Tried but do not work too.
I can't enable use version.txt too.
When I launch the demo it asks me cf 6.20.

Thanks for your reponse.


EDIT: I enabled version.txt use, but I have 80010013 error at launching now.

Nice I love the voice actor they chose for Snake.

That new mission that was in was kinda difficult.

I hope the official release has online and isn't PSN based like the older ones on the PSP.

version.txt doesn't work for games anymore. Turn it off and switch drivers.

Works fine (patched of course) on 5.00 m33. (I used Eboot Exchange 2.6).

the tool "eboot exchange" is new to me, can it patch protected eboots ? like this one from psn ?
because all sites i found with it state, that it can patch the iso.
but mgspw is no iso, it's an eboot...
did you convert the eboot to iso with eboot2iso ? because i tried that with the japanese mgspw demo and it didn't work (couldn't be patched)

ps: i'm on 5.00m33-6 (obvious) and i don't want to update (the gen firmwares had to many bugs, like not playing my videos at all)

 

[prowler]

GEN D3 hardly has any bugs of which i know.
No custom firmware is perfect

 

[Evilmaster1985]

I always used: PSP Video Converter to convert my movies.
And they have worked under any GEN firmware so far.

As Dean said the GEN firmware is not that buggy.
Seeing the fact most games will not run on M33 updating will be a must sooner or later.

Sorry, I found and used an untouched iso (can't link to that obviously). As a Mac user I normally just find myself a prepatched iso, but in my impatience I used Eboot Exchange (for the first time) since it was confirmed to work. And it worked just fine.

I just decrypted the eboot from the PS3 PSN store with NP decryper.. the ISO it make worked fine on 5.03 GEN-C
