I have a PSP Go on the 6.2 firmware. I read a few threads here and some on other sites about modding on 6.2 and 6.6. Most people say 6.2 is better because you will have a permanent CFW. But, these posts are dated 2011. If they are still true, I don't know since wololo.net says to just go ahead and update to 6.6

Then I read the newest sticky tutorial here and it says only certain PSP models can go to 6.6 and get a permanent CFW. I see the 1000 series and 2000 series listed here, but what is a PSP go? Is that part of the 1000 and/or 2000 series?

I think I need clarification first before I update to 6.6.

Thanks!

 

Can you be on 6.2 and spoof 6.6 to get the better game compatibility?

 

No.

Staying at 6.20 is a bit pointless. It only takes 5 to 10 seconds to boot LCFW.

 

stick with 6.20 its better and if you want the PSN network use the plug in PSNfucker

 

PSPgo ? I suggest to update 6.60 by official ver. it's legal.
By the way. the pspgo's update files is different with PSP's

and then you can install 6.60pro -c2 fix patch to crack your PSP

 

There's no need to use a plugin if you're on 6.60. You can access PSN like OFW users do.

 

Compatibility-wise the differences are marginal if at all present. 6.60 is simply the latest firmware with native PSN access and Music Unlimited - if you don't dig those two features, there's no reason for you to update.

 

At the very least, there are no games (digital or disc) that required anything newer than firmware 6.20 for the PSP.

But yea, if you're running PRO CFW, it's my understanding that newer builds have enabled PSN access without the need for additional plugins and the like. Since I pretty much always ran PRO on my go, that's probably why it never required me to update.

 

Wrong. There are couple games that required 6.30+ firmware.

* Growlanser Wayfarer of Time (6.60)
* The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (6.30+)
* Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy (6.37+)
* Fate/Extra CCC (6.60)

And many more games. PSP is still getting games, and these new games are signed for 6.60.

 

However 6.20 CFW has the decryption keys for all those newer games all the way up to 6.60 so they will still work.
