Isn't the point, The update that's on the disk.
Will A 3.50 PSP run a 3.52 game?[addsig]

I doubt so. I'm running on 3.02 but could not run GRAW that required 3.52. They included a 3.52 update in the UMD[addsig]

You may want to try reading my post again. What I'm saying is that the version included on the UMD isn't necessarily the firmware version required to run the UMD. [addsig]

Here's what he's trying to say...

Some UMDs might come with a firmware like 2.80, but only need 2.71 to run. So yes, you can update to 2.80 using the UMD, but you don't need to update for certain cases. Many games require the update on the disc, but certainly not all games.[addsig]

Well, what it wants to run we'll put. Sure you're correct, but what shows up in the XMB is what I'm looking for. Any specific games you're talking about?[addsig]

Nothing's going on in the Site News/Info forum. I have money to buy another 2 PSP games, I'll tell their firmwares if I get them.[addsig]
