[Official] PS3 Game Sharing

[Dirk]

This is all pretty interesting. I think it is pretty awesome that after the transfer is done you can play it on your own account and earn trophies and stuff.

Is the Call of Duty map pack share-able? Because I've been after it for ages and parents wont put funds on my PS3. So if some-one has it and is willing to share it with me, that would be great. P.M if you have any questions like because its not like I'm a part of this community. Only post now and again.

Good question, I have no idea about map packs.

I'd really doubt it though, I think it's to do with games.

We should really get some sorta system in place for this sharing, written up and kept track of.

Everyone who takes part can share with 4 other people (I'm seeing people say 5, but I think it's 5 in total - So 4 others, because your own system is included).

You can however share with someone, but not actually be part of their share list. Right now I'm sharing with everyone below, but I'm not on their lists as of yet (either don't need anything from them currently, or haven't asked).

Me for example,

Audioboxer

Account currently shared with 3 other systems

+Sethos

+DrunknMunky

+MightyJordan

Green = Activated

Red = De-activated

Are full games like Burnout and Siren share-able? If so would anyone like to share one of them with me? P.M if you want to ask any questions or anything.

Okay update on the sharing.

Once the person downloading from your account has started downloading their chosen game(s), I believe it's okay for you to log back in and change the password/use your own account again.

It might disconnect them from PSN, but their download(s) carries on anyway (Y)

[Pheee]

Makes we want a PS3 even more, LBP is the main reason I want one anyway, plus other great titles I want to play coming out.

[cashman Veteran]

I can confirm that Map Packs on COD4 work.

[Poolie07]

Would you be willing to share with me? That would be outstanding if you could. I dont have anything to share back though and Im not the biggest member of the community here so P.M if you have any trust issues or anything.

[houlty]

i'll take a cod4 map pack if someones willing to share.

my list:

Wipeout HD

Warhawk

Sky Diving

Mortal Kombat II

Gripshift

Tekken 5 (Dark Resurrection)

flOw

Super Stardust HD

Q*bert

[cammy]

I am willing to game share the Killzone 2 beta (which i am allowed to do)

For one of the following....

Burnout paradise (probably a bit of an extortion but if you wanted the beta that badly and already had burnout on PSN then why not eh!)

Wipeout HD

Anything good that will come out on PSN tomorrow lol

Totally the same here, mate :(

[Sethos]

Killzone 2 can be shared? I'm willing to share my soul and a bowl of coco puffs :o

[Dirk]

I really want the Killzone beta but I can't share either one of those games. lol. I don't even have Burnout lol.

[+Audioboxer Subscriber²]

Yeah it's confirmed to be shareable.

Only thing was I thought it was a closed beta, does it not track the beta members stats?

Make sure you are allowed to actually share it to ANOTHER account before sharing.

What I mean is, the way we're sharing things is downloading through the main account, then playing on our sub accounts.

As in I download Wipeout from Sethos, he changes his password, I play on my Audioboxer account.

If you shared Killzone 2 and the person you share to plays through your account, okay, but if they play through their own could you get in trouble?

Essentially that's an account that's not suppose to be in the beta, playing... if you catch my drift.

You could always just lone your account to people for an hour or two to let them try mind you ;)

[Sethos]

I'd gladly take a ban for playing some Killzone, really want to try it :laugh:

LOL of course you would, you wouldn't get banned, the person who shared would :p

I doubt it anyway, there's topics all over the internet about the beta being shared. I presume it must be okay?

edit: In fact no, don't risk it

Never heard about Sony being as strict as certain other companies, they are more like cuddly bears.

EDIT: No, they are vicious bears :(

Yes but i`m not sharing a code, i`m sharing the game itself.

Its not like i am giving the person the promotion code they gave us.

[+Audioboxer Subscriber²]

But their PSN ID will show up in a closed beta, when only your PSN ID should.

I think that'll be tracked back to you somehow?

I dunno man, do whatever you want, you know the NDA :p

[Sethos]

Well cammy, I'm willing to test your theory, for free :shiftyninja:

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

How do you change your password? Once I know that, I got a decent amount to share. LOL

Well cammy, I'm willing to test your theory, for free :shiftyninja:

Ditto.

Actually, how did people get into the Killzone Beta? And is the Resistance 2 Beta started yet for Qore users? I am still out of it from my trip to Europe.

[Sethos]

Uh hello Larry, welcome back (Y)

[+Audioboxer Subscriber²]

Account Management, Edit Profile I think it is?

Edit Personal?

I'll check in a minute if someone hasn't clarified!

For a precaution as post 1 says, always remove your CC details if they're saved as well before sharing.

That can be done under edit billing info, then remove CC info.

[DirtyLarry Veteran]

Uh hello Larry, welcome back (Y)

Thank you sir. (Y) I am still trying to get back into the swing of things, a friend of mine today told me it was Wednesday and I swore it was Tuesday LOL I am really disoriented and work has been hell after missing 8 days.

I will be back in full swing soon enough.

Thanks and thanks.

Nice to hear Europe got something first (and I am being serious, it is about time), and really good thing to know about the CC info, not that I do not trust whomever I would do this with, but still.
