Just so you people know, MANY people have had problems with their PSPs bricking a couple days after installing CFW 3.93. It may sound good when you first get it but there really isn't any reason to change from 3.90 M33-3 to 3.93 CFW.

The best CFWs are 3.52 M33-4, 3.71 M33-4 (if you want all your PSX games to run smoothly), and 3.90 M33-3 (if you want Skype). I'd go with 3.90 M33-3 but seriously, don't stray away from Dark_Alex by going to CFW 3.93. There really isn't any need and why take the chance of fucking up your PSP?

HawkShadow: You can back up your games and play them from your memory stick with any CFW. But to play the newest games like Crisis Core or Chains of Olympus you're going to need 3.90 M33. If you want to use Skype you're also going to have to go with 3.90 M33. Just so you know, surfing the web doesn't change from the regular when you go to custom firmware. I'd say go with 3.90 M33-3. Look in my sig for an easy guide to go from official firmware (OFW) to custom firmware (CFW).
