im just asking myself how long it would take to do a back up of a game? probably several hours.

I'd guess the average speed of a USB to external HDD transfer, so some 15-20 MB per second. Anyways, as long as it is less than a rental period...

What an epic fail scam...they're trying to sell these USB drives..

In the YT video, pause at 0:43 ... Uncharted 1's disk is there. But when the guy tries to load R&C:TOD, turn up the volume at 1:23, you can hear a disc coming out...they probably change Uncharted with Ratchet when the PS3 is not being filmed.

Pause at 1:31, the Uncharted BD icon is missing !

Scammers are full of scam.

I don't hear anything that sounds like a disc coming out of a ps3

Neither did I. Anyways they posted a second one where the PS3 is being filmed all the time and there's no breaks in the video.

By the way, GodOfWar_3ever, you should not steal comments from YT without at least mentioning it.

Note how they didn't actually show how to make a back-up of the game and put it on this USB dongle.

The second video is slightly more believable than the first, but I'm still not convinced.

Wow, for real? Haha sorry then.

I try to use the same username over most places I post (some of them have already been taken since this username itself was not coined by me in first place).
