    Yeah all you have to do is set up a new profile then you can get a new PSN there

    You can have as many PSN identities as you want. I have 3 PSN accounts on my PS3, one for EU, US and Japanese content.

    To make a new PSN identity, you need to create a new user on your PS3 and then create a PSN id to go along with that new username.

    1. When you turn on your PS3 you are asked to choose a profile, your profile is probably your first name.

    2. When the choice of which profile comes up scroll up to the top and click ''create new account'' then maybe make it as a new name for example ''mixednuts''.

    3. Choose the mixednuts account and press x then move over to where you sign up for PSN and sign up again.

    Pretty basic stuff, just a bit confusing on the creating accounts part. Ohh well hope this helps anyways!

    Mate,
    I have the PS3 months now and have my PSN setup , I wanna know how to set up a second one .

    When i turn on my PS3 it doesnt ask for a profile , it just signs me onto PSN (automatically set by me) .

    What i would like to know is how can i have the option to setup a second PSN i.d and choose which name i wanna use when on line gaming.

    I am after telling you, well from what I remember. Well then if your automatically logged in then go way over to the left and it will say your name and then above it it will say ''create new user'' go to it and make new name and follow the rest of the guide.

    Create a new user on the very left icon !
    Then go to the playstation network icon to create a new PSN id
