Doesn't work for me.

I have an app called "TEMPLATE - PSL1GHT" after the installation, and it gives black screen.

It's not that i don't like progress made in homebrews and so on...
but i'd rather play some Tetris HD, c'mon...

yes, i tried to quickly implement the ICON0, i was rushing the last bit to release it before i fell asleep, i'll update this

as for the black screen, make sure your not trying to play in 480p, this causes the ps3 to crash for some odd reason, i'm looking into it now, to try and figure out the cause

@SnoopDo2G
it's hard to compete with an commercial game, also, i've only worked on this for 4 days=-)

I posted on ps3hax but I'm not sure you saw it, so I'll post here too. But try doubling the amount of memory allocated for the zbuffer. With it being width * 2 it would crash mednafen in 480p, but making it width * 4 fixed it.

People like you are gonna discourage developers from actually making stuff and then the scene will dwindle. ANY homebrew is GOOD homebrew. If you don't like it, say thanks and move on. Or better yet just don't post. I don't care if there's a 3D version of Tetris that has sharks with freaking laser beams. As long as people develop for the scene it could be two piles of crap fighting each other for all I care.

EDIT: Also games like the one you posted have a decent size development group behind them, funding, and good engine tools. We have the SDK for the PS3. We don't have any Engine tools or IDE's. Alao UDK, Unity engine. Stuff like that. Those have to be made or we have to use existing ones.

Nice one, and just before Sony's overpriced release. Cheers!
