Killzone Liberation

[KickMeElmo]

With regards to the DLC, I've checked and it's not that it's encrypted. It's definitely strange though. On a real PSP, you get the DLC pack's files (a 65MB CHAPTER5.BIN and a ~10MB EBOOT.PBP) into the right spot, then start the game and hit Download in the main menu to open the system browser and close it. That site would normally have put those files there, back when the website worked, hence it offering to install the DLC at this point. Once it does, it doesn't modify your save file or the game itself, rather it splits the DLC's EBOOT.PBP into a ~8MB KZL.PRX and a 10KB EBOOT.PBP, and based on warnings not to delete the updater left behind in your game list, it seems the eboot is only there at that point to retain the folder's existence.

That aside, once the game is started with KZL.PRX present (without that specific file, everything works fine), as soon as the initial SCEE/Guerrilla credit passes, where a real PSP would normally display an "accessing memory stick" icon, the framerate readout freezes with the screen black and logs spit this out, with no further output regardless of time waited:
