Worked for me...and I didn't need to go to my email to change my password. Wonder why some people have to do it differently?

This is my second PS3. That probably has something to do with it.

But what confuses me is my cousin had to do it by email even though I didn't and we both play on the same PS3 (which is our first)

That's not confuse... every account with no downloaded content have to change the password via email.

"If using a PS3, your password can only be changed on your own PS3 (or a PS3 on which your PSN account was activated), as an added layer of security. If you have never downloaded any content using your account on the system, an email will be sent to the registered sign-in ID (email address) associated with your account when you first attempt to sign-in to PSN. This e-mail will contain a link that will enable you to change your password. In this email, click on the link and follow the instructions to change your password. Once you have changed your password you can sign-in to your account using your new password."

But rocketpig has bought psn game according to him....

In the system (PS3) he wants to do the password reset? You have to have at least one download content in your system for that account.
