This is one of those things that can be really hard to deal with and it may come across as a shock to some, but it’s not that bad. It’s the fact that this is a thing that can be done by a lot of people who aren’t that bright.
If you’re not already aware, Sony is currently in the process of resetting the PS3’s factory so that the console is factory reset and not shipped with any of the games that were included in the PS3’s box. Sony is resetting the PS3’s factory so that they can take advantage of the extra memory space that the console has, and in so doing they are also removing all save files from the game that was installed on the console.
This is a very risky move, because it basically erases all the data that the console has on it. If the console has save files, it means that they contain all the information that the game would have if the console was still plugged in, and if Sony erases those files, the information that was contained in them can no longer be found. The data that is stored on the console during the reset process is essentially lost.
If you’ve got any save files from the game you bought on the PS3, you can always restore lost data from them. If you have any data from the PS3 that you can’t restore from the PS4, you should definitely do that.
It’s true that Sony and Microsoft have stated that they are going to take away all save files from the PS4 if a PS3 is ever found. Which I find kind of odd, since what theyre doing isn’t that different from what Microsoft did with the original Xbox when the Xbox 360 was released. They are essentially wiping all the data that a user had on their console, and wiping all the data that they lost when they were replaced.
I wonder how much data Sony and Microsoft have on the PS3 that they have no intention of wiping. I mean, if those consoles were never sold, I really doubt they would have as much as they do. But the real question is whether they have enough data on them in the first place.
The only sure thing about the PS3 is that it is now part of the PlayStation Network. In terms of the actual content, the data is only stored on the SD card. Microsoft will wipe all the data from your PS3, and Sony will wipe all the data from your PS3.
Yeah, it’s safe to say that Sony doesn’t have any of the original PlayStation data on their PS3. It’s all wiped out. But don’t worry Sony doesn’t have to put all of that data back on your PS3. They just have to wipe it down and restore it.
When you play the game, you have two options: 1) Buy the game and have the PS3 factory reset. 2) Play at home and have the game factory reset. You can also buy the game and have it factory reset if you have the GameCube or PlayStation 2.
Why not just buy the game and have it factory reset? Because this option is more secure than having your PS3 wiped down. We were both able to play the game without being locked out of any game data. Since the game was already factory reset, it only took a few minutes to reset the factory, and you can do it again on any PS3 model.
