Is it possible to work out the obfuscation algorithm by comparing the obfuscated version of a file with the deobfuscated version of the same file?
The obfuscated version is from the Japanese version of Way of the Samurai 2 Special Edition/Samurai Dou 2 Kettouban [SLPM_742.09] for the PS2.
The deobfuscated version is from the Japanese version of Way of the Samurai 2 Portable/Samurai Dou 2 Po-taburu [ULJS-00217] for the PSP.
Both files are the same size, but the PS2 version isn't readable, whereas the PSP version is.
Obfuscated file from PS2 version.

Both files you've posted are identical ...

Well spotted! Thanks for the heads up. I've replaced the second link with the correct file.
