When you put the usb drive in , and goto saved game data- then it should show the usb drive- highlight usb drive press X - then Highlight the game save you want to copy to the ps3 and press Triangle. - Select Copy.---


Your Jump drive File structure Should look Like this for Game Saves to be recognized-



PS3 (Case sensitive folder name)
inside PS3 Folder there should be a folder Called SAVEDATA
Within the SAVEDATA folder there should be Folders Called
(blu........)

So if your BLU.... is not in the SAVEDATA folder and the SAVEDATA folder is not in the PS3 folder on the jump drive just create a new folder name it PS3 then open that folder and create a new folder and name it SAVEDATA then open that folder and move the BLU....file folder or folders into there. The ps3 should recognize it no problem then .

You could have find this if you had simply searched google.

The front of the console. How can you not know though? It's where you plug in to charge the controller.

I have no idea about playing burned ps2 on ps3, I use free mcboot on ps2.

You should be able to play them with a backwards compatible console on CFW 3.55, you might need the Cobra USB dongle. I think you can do it with the newest SwapMagic but, I doubt it works on newer firmware.

[adam4landry]

CFW 3.55 what is that ????

[Gypsy]

Custom Firmware version 3.55.

You can't play burned ps2 games without a hacked/modded console. Much easier to play burned PS2 on a PS2.

Does this friend's PS3 even play PS2 games in the first place? Because if it's not a backwards compatible 60/80GB model then there is NOTHING you can do to play PS2 games on it.

No it does not play ps2 games that why i need a solution for his problem.

Tell me more about the Custom Firmware version 3.55 i did a little research about it, it almost look like a homebrew channel for ps3 i saw a video on youtube that it can play back up ps3 games i wonder if it could play burn ps2 game on ps3.

let me shine a little light on this subject for you since you do not seem to be understanding.

Actually, you can run the PS2 emulator on slims with the Cobra dongle. I don't know how many games will play, or how playable they are though.
I'm also unsure if you need the original disc, or can play from burned discs or ISOs.


After doing a bit of reading, they play pretty crappy on the slim. You should just get a used PS2 and FMCB.

Or use pcsx2 on a decent P.C.
