[New Easter Egg on PS2 version only! (#11)]

I love Rockstar. They think of everything. Also, why the hell does no-one in the entire GTA community have a damn capture card? It's really disappointing. I hate seeing all these photos of TV's. I'll take some good quality screen caps tomorrow with my card, when I actually get the game.

Nice find! Great easter egg.

EDIT: Might post this tomorrow since I sense a slow news week coming. Just wondering, are the 10 easter eggs from the PSP version all the same, and this is an added 11th one? Or are there even more with the 10 PSP ones in different locations?

I think they are in different locations. I will check in a little bit.

EDIT: The #10 sign no longer says "That's It!". They must go up to 20 signs now. I was able to find a lot of the ones found on the PSP so, they must of just added more signs.

[New Easter Egg on PS2 version only! (#11)]

Remember the nothing to see here sign on VCS for the PSP? Do you also remember that also the VCN easter egg was gone? Well on the PS2 version, there is a new sign and the construction of the easter egg!

New ship sign [Thanks goes to psphacker108 for taking this screen shot since my camera was going weired.]

[GTA IV Trailer Countdown!]

Jeeze i woulden't be suprised if gta 4 ended up being more expensive then past gta games. its probably going to be the top game of 2007.

Guess what, a dual layer Blu-Ray disc costs 65$. At least, here. That just for ONE disc!

How does R* want to get any profit's with that. But that prices will drop soon though.. That's what I think that is.

Can you say bulk deals and discounts from Sony?

[GTA IV Trailer Countdown!]

Here are some videos I made.

A fan isn't too happy about the trailer. It just said coming soon and faded to back. A crazed fan grabs Mr. Houser and sings for him!:

[The Ultimate Firmware, DevHook & CheatDevice guide]

THIS GUIDE IS NOT COMPLETELY FINISHED! MORE INFO COMING SOON!!

There has been some wrong info posted about what you need to do to downgrade, install DevHook, and installing CheatDevice. The plan for this thread is to get the right info out. If you find any problems or something wrong, feel free to report it to me. I want this thread to be 100% correct. There are some things where you will have to flash your PSP. This means writing info to the place where the PSP stores the firmware files, PSP config files, and more. This is the most risky thing you can do with your PSP but if you follow the standards, you should be fine. Here is some info you need to know.

Tips to make sure you don't get a brick

1. Make sure your battery is at least 50% (100% recommended)

2. Make sure your PSP AC adapter is plugged in.

3. Make sure you don't have a TA-082 mother board or higher. TA-082 mother board check

4. DO NOT TURN OFF YOUR PSP WHILE IT IS BEING FLASHED!!!!!

5. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR MEMORY STICK WHILE FLASHING YOUR PSP!!!!!
