I tried the file restore didn't work. It's the old 160gb model before the slim. Do you think I should open it and clean it ?


you can do anything but once these lasers stop reading it is all downhill from my experience,xmb stuff still works but not much help if you don't download much

when you have to change the laser a couple of times its usually best to just move on

This blows lol how much does it usually cost to repair the laser and all the other bills that come with it? I'm looking at the thing and its 50 bucks just for shipping and looking at it.



Go to a friends place that has the console, log in to your profile, install it to your cloud ...and you will be able to play it on any console after with your profile.

Oh wait...nevermind this wont happen for another 10 years.

Can you not use your save files on other consoles?

I never attempted to do it.

Why? Will the fans ruin it?


Pretty much. Since his lazer doesn't work, the fans won't fix the problem.

Can you trasfer the save files and all that from one ps3 to another? I may just go buy a slim right now

The best part is he can share the game with ten people using family plan. They don't even need to be blood related.



I'm pretty sure the saves won't carry over unless you have ps plus cloud saving. Unless you can put it on a usb drive- or you could alternatively buy the same model ps3 and use the same hard drive no?

you should be able to do a data transfer if everything else is working properly
