# Some news about Razoola & CPS2 project :

CPS2Shock Team are starting back the project to brute force the CPS2 system. They want to bypass XOR and understand how to decrypt the CPS2 system. They are fed up with people like HAZE complaining not enough information are available and Razoola is also fed up with people at mamedev because they did not work on the project.

GURU got the puzzloop2 and progear boards but still not have dumped the SIMM video... which makes Razoola a little bit angry. Razoola said that as soon as he have the files for progear, he will release the XOR's even if the game is pre-2003.

* This is a very good news! Good Luck & keep up the good work Raz! *

# Some news about NeoRAGEx EGCG from Flycboy...

Quote from Flycboy :
Perhaps we can move on to the final version of NeoRAGEx EGCG!
At the moment, these game will be fully supported :
Snk Vs Capcom (fully decrypted)
The King of Fighters 2003
Samurai Shodown Zero Special (supports 512k m1)

Support for EmuCheat & Uni-Bios 2.0 are not decided yet (maybe will never supported?)
Diggerma, V-Liner & Jockey Grand Prix will also not supported

The release time is unknown because the lack of personnel
Maybe I can pass down my work to the public someday...

* Can't wait to get my hands on this final version! :) *
