Using Someone Else's PS3

    My g/f's brother has my PS3 so my own brother has agreed to lend me his. If I create a new account on his, will I be able to earn trophies etc and have the whole account work as normal or can I only be setup on my own PS3?

    If I was to set it up and play for a few weeks until I got my own back, would everything sync once I logged back into my account on my own PS3?

    Yes, create a new user and log in under your own account on PSN, should synchronize fairly easily

    And PS Plus & PSN? Will the games stay on my account when I switch back to my own PS3?

    Never. She arrives home tonight. My Vita has asked for some alone time. Understandable I suppose. They've never met.

    The saga of shuffles getting a ps3 is coming to close. Still waiting on that cake btw.

    I could smell the PS3. I really could. Fell at the last hurdle and have to wait until tomorrow night. My g/f's brothers' daughter is sick so I couldn't call over to collect it.

    My Vita knew instantly. He won't come out of his case.

    Quick question. I've decided to format it since it's been used by someone else for the past 18 months. It's only a 40GB version but the format says it will take 3 hours. It's currently only on 11%.

    Thing is, in a few weeks I'm going to buy a 500GB HD so I can benefit from getting PS Plus so should I really be bothering formatting the current HD?
