Can anyone help me please. I have 2x PS3s. OFW and CFW. On the OFW I beat metal gear solid 2 and 3 hd collection games and I am trying to transfer my gamesaves to my cfw ps3 unit but they do not work. For what ever reason the games do not load they crash after the konami logo at the checking hard drive part. If I delete the saves the games load just fine, I can even create new saves but I have to start over all again, the unlocks are all gone.

I tried using bruteforce and Apollo save tool to re-assign the profiles but when I validate them it fails, apollo will cause it to crash again, and bruteforce gives me a random error code when copying the files to the internal ps3hdd. I noticed in bruteforce when I try to verify the save it has a bunch of fails. I have used bruteforce and apollo for other games and it works just fine so I know how to use the tools just this game is giving me issues.

Not sure what is wrong but noticing for the 2x game saves via bruteforce a lot of fields are greyed out, reading about the greyouts might be possible a config file somewhere does not have the game hash keys and that apollo uses the same database as bruteforce so I am guessing some newer games missed the cut as the modders moved on from the ps3 scene maybe. I have the physical versions of the games and isos so not sure how I can get these keys or where to place them if that is indeed what is causing it. Anyone had luck transferring these game saves to other consoles and other ID accounts?

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM

  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:

    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds

    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space

    @rqkaiju2, Physical media is a great source for archiving your data, none of that cloud storage shiz.
