^ what model is it? (check the last 7 characters on the back).

9/10 chance it's a burned out laser, 1/10 chance it's a software issue. I can help you with both.

If you're using the PS3 on a computer monitor with a native res of 1080p, most games will look like shit. They are usually 720p (upscaled from even lower resolutions). If a TV has its own 720p mode, it will look OK, not as blurry as on a monitor.

platformer..it has probably one of the best community in the recent years for console gaming (there's over 2 million custom levels online). It's kid-ish but also one of the few party-friendly games on the ps3.

LBP is awesome, definitely worth the cash. I don't think it's overly party friendly myself, just because when you get 4 players running around it can become a shit show if you're actually trying to beat any kind of tricky level. For fooling around in user-created levels, it's amazing.

My 1080p monitor looks just fine, the PS3 does quite a good job of upscaling stuff though IMO.

headsup for an older game:

Picked up Bioshock 2 last night at the Walmart on Grandview Hwy for $15.

Price lists it at $19, but was only charged $15 before taxes.

Does anyone know if its possible to transfer saved game data between User ID's on the PS3?

I bought my ps3 used a couple years ago, and thought it was all reset back to default settings. Now I find out that the "User 1" id I was playing under, is actually linked to the original owners PSN login. I want to retain my saved game data (GT5 and others) but be able to log in to my own PSN id. It doesn't seem to want to let me? I backed up all the saved game data onto a thumb drive (was swapping in a SSD at the same time) and every time I load the saved games back on, it loads up the old owners "User 1" id and links the games to him. I can't log in to PSN when its his ID.

Any ideas?

Can you log out of his ID? and back into yours?

I can, but then I don't have the saved game data. I can log into my PS ID, and then it lets my log in to PSN, but all the game data is linked to "User 1"

I would just use the User 1 log in, but it seems locked to his PSN id. So if I try to log into PSN with my ID it gives me some message about not being allowed to use someone elses ID
