So it seems that with the latest release of updates for Cobra USB there is now a "mode 1" and "mode 2" way of launching PSP games and this varies compatibility-wise.

Changelog of Cobra USB 4.4 and Cobra PSP Launcher 2.0: - Added specific support for the following 15 psp games that either crashed or had critical gameplay issues: BLAZBLUE CONTINUUM SHIFT II DJMAX PORTABLE 3 EXIT Fate/EXTRA LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean The Video Game LUNAR: SILVER STAR HARMONY Resistance: Retribution SMT: Persona 2: Innocent Sin SOULCALIBUR: Broken Destiny STAR OCEAN: First Departure TEKKEN 6 (fixed random crashes) The 3rd Birthday ((if you see a black screen at beginning, press buttons, it will work after that) VALHALLAKNIGHTS White Knight Chronicles: Origins Z.H.P.: Unlosing Ranger VS Darkdeath Evilman - Added support to load prometheus patched psp isos. - Added an option for psp emulation. You can set it per game in multiman using "Game settings". You can choose between auto, mode 1 and mode 2. By default, all games are set to auto, what causes mmCM to choose the apropiated setting from a database, but you can set the option manually. Mode 1 and Mode 2 have different compatibility, some games that work in one of them won't work in the other one. Mode 2 is usually more compatible. Changelog of mmCM 03.01.02: * Added support for three different modes to load PSP ISO files (Auto, Mode 1, Mode 2): "Game Settings" in XMMB/XBDM SIDE menu * Added support for lastGAME application - it will load the last game you played, without entering mmCM * lastGAME: Application which loads the last played PS1/PS2/PS3/PSP game (folder and ISO format) (separate application) * bdRESET : Application which resets all redirections and unmounts loaded ISO images (separate application) * Note: When you use "Last Played Game" application you will have to launch the PS1/PS2/PS3 game from the disc icon and the PSP game from the "PSP Launcher" icon |
Hopefully one day if these guys continue to pump out updates for their product we will have an extremely compatible PSP emulator on our PS3s although I doubt we'll ever reach even 75% of all titles.
Nonetheless they've done a remarkable job fully unlocking our PS3s, well done Cobra.
