i'd thought i'd write about this . cause lots of people ask about these.

first what are they. well their all game formats for the psp .

the iso . and cso are normal psp games but eboots are ps1 iso converted
to to eboot format so it can be played on the psp ( eboots normally
come with a .keys file)

dif. :

iso : is the game the full one nothing compressed at all . and it's
better in terms of experience some ppl have problems with cso because
it's compressed. but the iso takes more place in the mem. stick largest
iso ranges to 1.5 gigs

cso : it's the compressed version of the iso . it's good for small mem.
stick owners. it doesn't take too much space but it some times causes
lag. largest size ranges too . 800 mb

eboot. : like mentioned before this is a ps1 game made in a suitable
format so as to be played on the psp. games are always 400 mb or 500 mb
tops unless it's a multi disk game

rips. : are games represented in any format but have something cut out
from them ( ex. music some cutscenes) so as to give u smaller sized
games . i've seen a 1.5 gig game rippes in to a 250 mb because of
ripping music and cutscenes.

ALSO : iso and cso are put in a folder calles ISO in the root of ur
psp's mem. stick . as for eboots u must first put it and the keys file
(if existing) put them in a folder prefered if u name the folder on the
games name with no space than take that folder and put it in the game
folder found in the psp folder which is located in the root of the mem.
stick. too complicated ? msO: psp / game / ( ur game folder)

hope this small thing helps. but i know ppl have some probs. with them . i'll be postins more soon
