Sony Europe has sued the UK-based company Datel over an accessory that allows gamers to run pirated games and homebrew software on their PSP-3000.
Unlike previous hardware models, the PSP-3000 has been harder to crack and Datel began advertising the Lite Blue Tool last month which is a battery-attached way to open the PSP up to homebrew.
The accessory has not been released yet, and Datel noted "that orders for the Lite Blue Tool could not be fulfilled due to legal action by Sony Computer Entertainment Europe".
Sony added however, that PSP hacking has been 'trending downwards' since the release of the 3000 model late last year.
