Yes and No.
The only legal download games are in the Playstation Store.
If you are downloaded illegal versions of the PSP games, you need a modified PSP to play them.

If you are attempting to download ROMs to play on emulators, you also need a modified PSP to run the emulator.

How can i download a game to my psp 3000 version 6.00????? should i modify it or not???? need a asap response... thanks...

You just need to go to playsation store in your psp to download games.... but you cant download games right now because the playstation network is under maintenance right now and there is no exact/definite time of when it will come back. Most probably the playstation store will come back next week so just wait.

How do i download umd dumper and when i download it it says corrupted data

First you have to modify your PsP to allow UMD dumper to work on your PsP. The easiest way to modify it if you are new to it is to get a Pandora battery. You can google pandora battery and a whole host of websites will offer them for sale. If you go this route then make sure you get the whole package which means that you may pay a little bit more but use a seller that is offering a magic stick with it. This magic stick will have the firmware on it to modify your Psp. These batteries come with instructions and can be purchased for under $25. Once you get the Psp modded then you can load UMD dumper and use this utility to back up your games to an ISO format and load them onto your memory stick... hope this helps. It may sound like a lengthy process but it is really simple once you get the pandora battery and modify your system.
