Anyway, when I was doing some research on the mating habits of the female species of the homo-sapien, my PS3's browser froze up. I turned the console off. It never worked again. Now, I just get a flashing red light. This REALLY sucks because I gave away my PS2 since my 80GB PS3 (MGS4 Bundle) was backwards compatible. I guess I'll order a slim PS3 online or something. Anyway: -Will my digital purchases be available on the new PS3? I bought a LOT of digital games over the years. Even if I don't play them, I still want to have access to them. Is it going to work? -Will my movies still be there? I want to know because, in the past, I found out that you can only download movies from the PSN once. You can copy them or whatever but once you delete them, they're gone forever. Some copyright thing, I guess. I had a lot of movies backed up on my portable HDD but there were still a few on the PS3. The Hunger Games, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, and The Avengers come to mind. Are they gone forever? -Can I recover my game saves? It took me like three years to finally finish Valkyria Chronicles. I was in the middle of a playthrough for Dead Space 2 so that I could buy Dead Space 3 (yeah, I hear it sucks. Shut up.). If I still have the HDD from the 80GB, is there a way to copy saves to the new PS3? -Why do things we love have to die? I loved you, PS3. I loved you! Why did you have to leave me so soon? WHY!?
It's funny. I got my PS3 at the midnight launch of Metal Gear Solid 4 (heck, it was the MGS4 PS3 bundle). The game in the PS3 when it died was Metal Gear Rising. Metal Gear was the first and last series that PS3 ever knew.
Rest in peace, my friend. You served me well. |
Your PS3 went out like a Boss.
