Well there is no easy way to say this, I have dropped the ultimate clanger and deleted my son's save data. He has two PSN profiles, a one he has had since he was 10 and a brand new one that I set up so he could play his mates online. Naughty I know but he is 16 next month :guilty:

To cut a long story short I thought he had been playing GT5 on the new one and he hadn't and now its gone :ouch:

He only comes to me on a weekend so I have a few days to try and appease the situation. What I'm asking for is any car a 15yr old lad might like which will make him less mad at his muppet Dad for deleting his data!

I have been sending him cars from my account but because I'm limited to one a day I'm struggling, please help!

His psn is Soldierboy118

Try posting his psn id so people can add and send the cars to him,if you don't mind that.
 
I will send you one mate,it will be about 5 mate when im back from work.What psn do you want it to??Any car in paticular yoy looking for.
 
Hi Crash79, i know exactly how he and you must feel as it happen to me a few weeks ago, I know this might be a tad over kill but ill send him a 2010 X1 prototype that will put a massive smile on his face i am sure, please post his psn so i can do so <(^_^)>
 
Sorry but I can see the funny side of this lol. Let us know his PSN and I'll try and send a few over.

Might be an idea if people post in this thread what they are sending so we don't double up?

OP could then keep an up to date list in the first post to make it easier.


Still chuckling at the thought of dad's blind panic when he realised what he had done.

Steve
 
Whats the EX wife going say about dad now? lol. You sure gave her some amo lol
 
How did you delete his save data, the only way is by being on his profile, which also begs the question of what you were doing on it.:trouble:

I'm going home now for my dinner so gonna double check his PSN and make sure its all set up correctly. Don't want you kind people to send it to somebody else by mistake. Will be back on in about an hour with his psn for old account
 
Make sure you've started GT5 on that account or I don't think we'll be able to send cars.

Panicking is an understatement! Just as well he is a cool kid but you're right about his mother, she might even bring this up in court lol :scared:

Doing that now Steve, thats why I've popped home just to make sure everything was sorted. I didn't expect such a good response, its much appreciated everyone 👍
 
I can't trade until reset.
But if he likes playing online, i have a x2010 i can send his way after reset tonight (just over 10 hours away) its brand new, gloss black, 0 mile.

I'll throw in a couple paints and maybe some car parts too.
 
I'll send him a car. I'm new on GTP but this thread caught my eye.

But can someone please tell me how to send something to someone who isn't already on my PSN Friends list?

Step by step 1,2,3 if possible please?

I'll be sending a Mazda 787b Race Car (p) - it's a very useful car, he can use it in lots of A:Spec races and nuke the competition to get back to where he was up to before very quickly! It's a fun car too.

My PSN is just Gelert

Thanks guys.

Gelert, you add him to your PSN friends list just like anyone else (press the ps button, over to friends, up to add) then just type in his PSN ID. His dad (or whoever) will have to accept you before you can send the car, but once he has accepted you, go into GT5, GT Life, Community Tab, then click triangle on his PSN ID and click "gift"
 
Just sent a bunch of friend requests :)

From:
xstevedx <-Me
xyougiukx <-spare
xxsxtxexvxexx <-spare
gggiiisssfff <-spare
xjilicx <my son need to be careful with that one LMFAO
xxdebsdxx <- wifes acct she won't notice
doodaaa <- wifes spare acct ditto

Thank you. I better go and add him now so his Dad can add me.

Just like normal then. I read a post earlier in the thread that seemed to say it could be done another way, was curious.

I have a 2nd account I use for duping, so it's just the same as that then.

Everyone is so helpful on this forum. It's refreshing.
👍

Just done the Friend Request.

This is awesome guys, many thanks again. I'll be home about 3 hours from now to accept your requests. I'll add the cars into the original post to keep you all updated as to what he has received:cheers:
 
I am going to send a Caterham Seven Fireblade! the PSN will be SkaterGuyMoose at about 9PM tonight, it's 1030A now for refference because I am sure you are in another time zone. I hope he enjoys, it's not an X2010 or anything but it's fun in it's own right
