Good day guys.
Unfortunately my controller die yesterday , didn't last and now am with another one in the same condition ready to follow him .
I open it and realise that was a " monkey" which i pay him very much ( 45 euros) before few months ago.

If i can borrow the only one from the kids upstairs or else had to wait till get the new ones.
Damn ...... At least my ps3 still works.
 
with @smoothbore12 's control and everyone's PS3's dying lately has got me thinking, is there a way you can back up your saved data so you can use it on another console?

Age 63. As for the PS3 issue, no info was given about cause of death. As Bryce said the flash drive will not put your save data on another console. The only way is an ethernet cable from one PS3 to the other called data transfer. It will wipe the data on the replacement PS3 and overwrite putting the saved data on the new/used one. My experience is Sony uses the cheapest hard drives that there are. If that is the reason then buy a laptop hard drive and replace it. Better yet by a SSD. There is back up save data in the memory of the PS3; once you replace the hard drive you can update your save from a flash drive. Each game data is somehow coded to the original console which is why the flash drive doesn't work. If you get a disk read error either the laser is dirty or fried. You can buy replacement laser assemblies on Ebay but you need the console model number. There are youtube videos on how to do both. Hope this helps.

PS: You can also buy power supplies on Ebay as well though I have never seen a power supply die in any PlayStation. I still have my original PS1 and PS2 and they both still work fine. Did have to put a new laser in the PS2 though that was nearly 20 years ago.

There's nothing wrong with my PS3 expect, I've borrowed my mates PS3 due to mine died and there is going to be a time when he wants it back and I don't want to lose my saved game.

If I remember correctly @lfm58 went through this before?

I tried that when my last ps3 stopped working, it didn't allow me to upload it to a new console.
I,was thinking maybe it would have something to do with PSN?

I can transfer my save to another PS3 as long as you are sign into your account on the PS network. On your mates PS3 you should have sign into your Account on his console and then the save will load to a new console.

Do I have to save my data onto the PS network or will it save it by itself?

Just save it to a USB as long as you account is tied up to you save on you mates PS3, and when you buy a new PS3 just sign into your account on the new one and your save will upload because it is connected to you Account.

I think I tired that last time and it didn't work? Maybe I did something wrong last time?
I'll save it to a USB just in case.

Yes save it to your USB and If your account it is tied up to your save on your PS3, you can use it on any other PS3, as long as you sign in on your account.

Good morning guys , you might not see me but am always there .
With life get's in the way with an unwanted manner , heat at high levels and my " monkey" dead controller ,there is no room to play.
I found one controller that stuck one button during the menu ( on the adjustments ) but when running seems ok !!
I ll try with it when new round starts hoping to get the new ones soon.
That round becames a disaster for me anyway , at no tune i deserve the trophy " turtle " racer :lol: and i think Bryce must invent that trophy.
Election day here today ,heat and boring eveywhere.

There is a small duck in Paddy's avatar or what ?

Good day mate,
Say cool mate and I hope you sort out your control issue.

This TROPHY you speak of 'TURTLE' what would be the rule for this? (lose by a certain amount)

I think Paddy's avatar is a chick.
