I don't understand why it isn't working I have the two discs, copied contents folder of install disc to correct location (I verified it) but when I launch the game I get a black screen. I tried installing update but it didn't help.
it's probably not the content folder that's the problem. sounds like a corrupted game. though, I'm surprised you didn't get "fatal crash intercepted" error.
I was wrong it booted but ended up geting fatal crash error. I'm just putting the GTA games back on my PS3.
