Thread: PS3 advice needed please...

I've got a 160gig PS3, had it for about 7 months & got loads of trophies & game save data on it...
I'm buying a newer 250gig as a christmas present for my son, but i want to keep the 250gig for myself & give my son the 160gig.
Anywho's... My question is how do i transfer all of the data between the two PS3's so that i can keep everything on the 250gig then clear the 160gig?

A Sony Memory Stick fella. You can back up your data (game saves ect) to that

Anything you have downloaded (bought games) will have to downloaded again, but as you have already bought them, you won't have to pay again so don't worry.

So if i get a 16 gig memory stick, is there a back up option in the options? & how to i install the data off the memory stick to the new PS3?

I found this which may help http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...4220414AAellPg it says Hard Drive but a memory stick will also do this job.

Also look at this as well which is another way of doing it and goes into more detail in a step by step guide http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread....ghlight=backup

Hope this helps

Nice one China mate
I'm not bad with software, computers & fixing things but when it comes to something i'm unsure of i'd rather find out as much as i can before i do anything... Incase i bugger it up (which usually happens )
