Any difference between "Modding" and "Hacking" a game console?
Hello guys;
"Today, I hacked my PSP."
This setence is a bit annoying me, because, to be honnest, I really care about my *French* language.
Which word should we use? "Hacking" or "Modding"? Is this the same thing? I always thought that "Hacking" a game console, would be to add a software inside the system, like the Wii Homebrew Channel - That I don't want, by the way. ^^ -, and "Modding", opening the system to add wires, this kind of things. Apparently, I was wrong.
These seems to mean the same thing...
But for me, "Hacking" make me thinking about "ROM Hacking", so this is not the right word to use. We should use "Modding". But maybe I'm wrong.
Can someone please tell me the difference, if there's any?¸
*Yeah, I also don't know how the say the word "Modding" or "To mod" in French. :? "To mod" would be "Modifier"? Anyways. ^^"
Thanks for this lesson. :p
