[ps3] Question about PS3 repair procedure and PS+

I have decided I am going to send my PS3 in to get repaired. The one I have is backwards compatible and that is one of the reasons I am doing so. I am aware I will not get the same (serial number) PS3 back but will I get back the same capable one such as backwards compatibility?

Regarding Playstation+. If I understand correctly it stores your game saves online so if you log in on another PS3, like a new one, you will still have your saves?

FYI I did have my data backed up on an external drive before it ylod'd and have Playstation+.

If you have the option turned on it will store your saves in the "cloud". It only does so after you play the game, it uploads the new datat. It would not have sent old data for games you have not played since the feature was introduced.

Hope that makes sense.

When I had it for the demo period.. I remember an option to do a forced upload backup for each of my game saves... You had to do it for each save though.

Good luck... I highly doubt you'll get a BC vintage PS3 back... Better off just buying a ps2 if you want that.

They got some launch units still. Sent mine back last month and get a Nov 06 model back with Linux enabled firmware.

If they send you worse model, demand price difference for it.

I seriously hope my PS3 won't break. I love my huge model that plays PS2 games

I sent mine in earlier this year because my blu ray drive crapped out. I got my same system back. I am guessing because it was an easy fix.
