First topic message reminder :
IMPORTANT:You can only share one of any of your accounts with four other people! Many people confuse this and think that you can only share one of any of your games with five other people. Simple: one account can only be registered on 5 PS3's.
Background info:Sony made a feature in the Playstation
store where you can re-use any account up to five times for use on other consoles. The basic idea of game trading is letting someone log onto your Playstation network account (registering them as one of the five other consoles that may use your account)to re-download one of your bought games while you are doing the same to his account.
Pre-trade steps:
1) MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ THIS ENTIRE POST AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
2) Find someone that has bought a PSN game you want and is willing to trade it with you for a PSN game that you have bought.
3) Delete all of your billing information and change your account password.
4) Get the persons PSN ID and add him as a friend and get his aim/yahoo/msn information or a phone number. This step is just for people that feel unsafe to get to know the person they are trading with. I also recommend talking on aim/yahoo/msn or on the phone when you are actually doing the trade. It's quick, you can report problems if any quickly, you can give each other information (i.e. passwords) quicker, and overall you will be able to tell if someone is scamming you or cheating you.
Trading steps:
1) Create a new user on your PS3 the name doesn't matter (this is located at the far left top of the xmb)
2) Sign in to that user.
3) Go to "sign up for Playstation network" (located at the far right of the XMB).
4) When the account sign up screen comes up click the bottom one which says: 'use an existing Playstation network account'
5) Enter the info that the person you are trading with gave you into the appropriate fields then hit continue.
6) Go to the Playstation store (still on the same account you just made with the other persons information, sn, pw, etc.) and go to download list (located at the very top second to the left.
7) Find the games on that list that you are receiving from the trade and click download.
Now while in the download screen for the game you are downloading click 'download in background'.
9) After you have Queued up all the games that you are recieving from the trade (most times it will only be one game that you are supposed to get) log off of their name and sign back into yours.
10) You must keep the user you made to access the other person's accountor you will get an error when trying to start up your game!
Post-trade steps:
1) Change the account password for your account back to its original!
Notes:
A) REMEMBER: You can only share one account (not one game) with four other people.
B) You cannot share games that you got illegally using PS3proxy (they don't show up in your download list). If you don't know what this means, then you have nothing to worry about.
C)Also be weary of accounts with very few posts and always be careful with your personal information!Untradable games:
Warhawk (fullgame)
(PM me if you know of any others)
There are RULES to this thread.
1) If you have nothing to trade, do not post! That means, we should not see any person begging for free games.
2) DO NOT scam your partner! It only takes 15 minutes on the phone to get Sony to reset the password, and they WILL know the scammers PSN account.
