sounds good to me, I don't think I have anything that you would like that you don't already have, only thing I can think of is you might want fat princess from me.

Alright its pretty nice outside right now and I'm gonna go pressure wash some stuff, i'll come in periodically to check for some messeges

Um, not sure what you need to hear, but it does work with anything (full games, DLC, w.e)

and... I have my account on 5 PS3s, all you have to do is make another user, then sign up for PSN with an already existing account, then put in their account, then go to the store, go to view downloads, start downloading it, you can DL in background and go back to your account, cause it's downloading to your PS3, not that account (obviously or it wouldn't work).

Then, you just do what you'd normally do, you have it. Also, if you de-activate the account after, you'll lose whatever you downloaded. You have to keep the account.

Not sure what you wanted to know, but I just... yeah. D:

just wanted to hear from some people who have experience w/ it to see what can/could happen that we don't know about.

and my wife about broke my PS3 cuz of Fat Princess. she couldn't stand the game sounds cuz it's so repetitive. i thought it was fun but probably wouldn't play it more than a few times. we'll just compare stuff later and see what we could trade i guess. or, just try it out cuz I'm sure we'll have plenty of stuff to trade in the future and I trust you enough  Kiss

I think the most important thing is to delete your billing info, the people I will trade with I obviously trust enough but anybody who game shares would be a fool to leave there credit card info open for someone to see

The best thing to do is temporarily change your PW to something easy, so that your friend can use the account for a moment. Then when he's done, change it back so you don't have to worry about any theft or anything. Just remove the credit card info and you should be fine.

It works on most games, but I know some full games like Socom Confrontation and such, won't work. But DLC stuff and small games usually work. You just have to keep that new PS3 account on your PS3 if you want the games to keep working...and it doesn't matter if the PW was changed back. Just means you can't log back into their account, but the games will still work.

And you can only share it with 4 other people because it includes your account as 1. Also, if you make a new PSN and send that to your friends, it won't work because you haven't downloaded any games on there. So it has to be the account you BOUGHT the original games on, otherwise it won't work.

And if you deactivate, I'm not really sure it works because DG deactivated my info on his PS3 but it won't allow me to give my info to another 4th person. :/ Not sure if he did it right, or it's a bug but it's still acting as if he has my stuff.

You guys have some good points. I just want to warn you that you can get banned for game sharing and have to pay back sony all the money they lost. Game-sharing also breaks your Warranty as well. If your console breaks then they will not fix it for you. I know this because it has happened to two of my friends, so that's why i do not game share anymore. Also game sharing is now banned from almost every PS3 related website as well too.

Anyways, if you have 4 people on your account already all you need to do is go Account Management> PS3> Deactivate/Activate and click on Deactivate and they will be able to download the stuff you have purchased. After they download whatever they got then go back and activate it again and it will work.

You don't want to delete the User that you got the games,dlc, add-ons, etc.. from. If you do that then they will stop working. Only gameshare with people you can trust. If you have credit card info stored on your PS3 delete it before you gameshare and then put it back in once they're done. It's important they you have a valid email address that you can check in-case they try to pull a fast move on you and change your password. You will get email notifications for password changes and purchases. You will also get recites from your purchased items as well

how can it void your warranty? people have to do this if they have a ps3 that breaks, and if it breaks again sony wont help em out? thats ridiculous

oh and i have FF VII if anyone wants it....i never realized how sh1tty the gfx were till i bought it....VIII had much better graphics
