nonsense! lmfao

It seems with the court ruling in the UK outlawing modchips, Sjeep and the rest of the DMS Team have reworked their impending latest incarnation of their DMS mod chip to disable the booting of game backups and only load "legal" homebrew ELF applications.

This is all fine and dandy, until you get to the interesting part.

According to our source, Sjeep and crew will create a "fake" Warez group that will release a *HACKED* BIOS Flash for the DMS4 that will enable the booting of ALL backups. Of course, they can claim no knowledge of this ploy as they have only created a chip that *SHOULD* only boot Homebrew software.

As if that wasn't enough, we have more related news. A few vendors have contacted us letting us know of some "bullying" tactics brought on by DMS's Official Distributor.

These vendors have been "threatened" with not being able to receive any more stock of any DMS mod chips, unles they agree to *EXCLUSIVELY* sell the DMS4 or sell the DMS4 more than any other mod chip they may currently carry.

It really looks like the DMS Team really does want to "muscle" their mod into being the top mod, instead of letting the merits of what it can do prove that instead.

Infinity still rules the roost then

This may be there undoing. I know i wont buy any considering i can get a infinity thats cheaper, boots backups without flashing and curently does everything that the new Dms4 does. I believe it was lufcfan that called the Dms4 a infinity 2 ripp off. I agree with him. BTW, didnt "team messiah" try these muscle tactics in the past. Look what that got them

[sl33p]

boy am i glad to have chosen infinity- phew

I'm a DMS4 Lite owner......... Please don't beat me with the infinity stick...I realized my mistake and have repented.

I have had nothing but problems with the DMS4 chip since it came to my door step. I have a V7 PS2. Install went good but I can't get the Bios flashed for the life of me. RSOD most the time and Black screens come and go at random.

I can't believe DMS is muscling this chip with little to no support to its customers that cave in and bought it. **sighs**

[cheryl771]

Well I totally believe it because it happened to me. I gave them a chance and then they tell me not to post anymore or what-they wouldn't say. They can't even support their own customers on their forum. They want to supress anything bad said about their chip but if you say something good well keep it up. The chip won't stand on it's own merit so they have to use threatening tactics or ban people. I got tired of it when I began to feel like I was more like troubleshooting their chip instead of feeling like I was installing a working tested product.

[Hintzer35]

I know just how you feel. I'm about done "testing" the DMS 4 lite. Still waiting to see if i get banned from their forum. I posted that i had a problem give it a few minutes, I'm prolly next on the list.

You aren't the first person I've heard these threat tatics from.

[dark_flip]

The matrix infinity sounds great just wish I didn't have a version 2 ps2...and now that the slim is out and there having a gajillion problems with it...i'm kind of at a stand still...can you say "HD Loader" and forget the chip?

[cheryl771]

What will be funny is when sony gets back all these slim pstwo's after christmas for repair. Leave it to Sony to be the first in the industry to create the "disposable" deck. Kinda like disposable razors. lol

[cheryl771]

Yes, the dms4 lite and pro will not do a single thing more than your deck already does on it's own. Until you flash it with what's called "toxic". The problem I had was the dang thing just would not let me flash the chip at all ! So thus you have a chip that does nothing at all! I could play original games and disable the chip but flash it NOPE. Very annoying indeed. I think there was about 1 person in the country that could read the official dms4 site and it's claims of features and realize that it won't do crap until you flash it.
