Codebreaker v.9 $13.99 @CC (web only special)

[UltraViolence]

I was in the market for one of these, select instore p/u to save the shipping costs.

http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Pelican-Code-Breaker-PL-650-/sem/rpsm/oid/44325/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do

or search for "code breaker" at Circuit City's main page. This is my first post, so forgive me if the deal isn't red hot or if the link doesn't work correctly.

How can you tell it's a v.9? i thought the v.9's were blue.

 

[UltraViolence]

I picked it up yesterday, it is a PL-650. It was in the blue packaging and when the software is running it shows v9.2, I hope this info helps.

 

[BIG5]

Thanks, I'm getting one.

 

[r1s3n]

Thanks OP I was looking for one on the cheap

 

[sonicbooom]

Does this allow you to transfer saves from pc to memory card, like transfer updated madden rosters to the ps2?

 

[CouRageouS]

CC also has had Action Replays on clearance for $10 for awhile. I still see a couple laying around every so often at some CCs.

Answering my own post.. nevermind, I'm thinking of the sharkport/x-port/max drive, not the codebreaker that can transfer saves from pc to memory card.

 

[MaxBiaggi3]

A friend of mine just bought this from Radio Shack for $15. Versions 8 and above support USB, so you can use it to access the memory card exploit for HD Loader.

Wait, so can you use this to transfer madden rosters from pc to ps2?

Yeah, and you can use PS2 Save Builder to convert saves between Action Replay MAX and Codebreaker format.

Invaluable tool. Great find, OP.

 

[sonicbooom]

Great, I'm going to buy one. Thanks japaninator and OP.

 

[sonicbooom]

Well, I didn't know you needed to buy a flash drive to transfer from pc to ps2. Does anyone know a cheap flash device I can buy for cheap?

 

[Megalith]

Damn, been looking for this...I didn't know CC carried it.

All you need to transfer codes is a USB cable, right. I am tired of typing in codes manually.

 

[Ganelon]

CC in-store also has $10 Code Breakers. I think they were v9's but I'm not positive on that.

 

[Rusty Ghia]

Codebreaker 9.0 and up let you download new saves and codes via the Sony Network Adapter. So it you're PS2 is connected to the internet, you don't need any cables or flash drives.

 

[62t]

should i do instore pickup or just buy from the store?

 

[UltraViolence]

I checked the ones on the shelf when I did the in store pick-up. They were all marked $19.99, but I don't know if they might scan lower. This was at the Kennesaw, GA Circuit City.

 

[hohndog]

Cool. Placed in in-store pickup order and will grab tomorrow. Thanks for the tip.

Yeah, but I can't use my network adapter because my stupid ISP (AOL) doesn't allow console gaming.

 

[62t]

there is also a price grabber rebate on this.

 

[UltraViolence]

chaarliee, Fry's has a 128mb flash drive for $9.99 no rebates in the Friday ad.

 

[LaraCroftsLeftBoob]

if you have a codebreaker and a usb flash drive, does that mean you can back up your game saves on your comp's hard drive?

 

[GunstarRed]

Is this in-store too? I've seen a lot of the ones in the blue packaging at a couple of Circuit City stores priced at $19.99. Is it the same thing and are all the versions' UPC codes the same?

Might go down there and check the price, since the website is showing in-store pick-up available near me.

 

[WebScud]

Is this better than the Action Replay? I had one brick two memoery cards and support would not e-mail me back. I'm still ing pissed about that.

 

[Ganelon]

There's never been one instance of Code Breaker corrupting a memory card, unlike countless instances where an AR has.

My target often has some on red tag... not the cheapest of the cheap, and probably larger than you'd need, but you'd get a decent size drive for your money.

Yep, that's the one I picked up last night. Heads up for those of you who have no internet capabilities for your PS2.

 

[WTFer]

anyone know if that is the latest version of codebreaker??

 

[EarthKing]

Should I pick this one up? The last codebreaker I bought was last summer (my first ever.)

 

[M3wThr33]

Does it work with the slimline?

 

[vienna333]

[quote name='M3wThr33']Does it work with the slimline?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I picked one up today and used it in my slim PS2 to unlock stuff in Haunting Ground. It said it was version 9.1.

Thanks OP for the find, there have been many occasions where after playing through a game multiple times to unlock stuff I just want to cheat and be done with it.

EDIT: Nevermind.

 

[LaraCroftsLeftBoob]

i might get me one if someone can answer a few stupid questions for me. since i don't know much about usb connections
i mostly want one so i can back up my save on my comp.
does this support usb 1.1 (i think thats it, the older usb) and 2.0?
how do i tell which one my comp uses?
are usb 1.1 and 2.0 compatible with all comps, or is 2.0 something newer that only newer comps use? my comp is about 7 yrs old so if they're incompatible mine would probably use 1.1.

also does any flash drive work with it? i went to codebreaker.com and looked, they only showed one incompatible drive. but they also only showed about 5-6 compatible drives.

7 years ago it is likely 1.1 Not to worry as they are compatible with each other, jsut and 1.1 is a lot slower. Anyway it is pretty easy to just get a usb 2.0 card.
