lcfcadam Posted 24 June 2011 Posted 24 June 2011 Okay I went to use my brother's PS3 this morning and a lovely little message saying "The file system is corrupt. It will be restored" popped up with no way to get past it other than to allow the restore to take place. However every time the progress bar gets to 100% it just restarts and the same message appears. I've tried doing the restore in Safe Mode but to no avail. Basically I've accepted that the hard drive is ****ed and it's gonna need a new one, but I was just wondering whether there was any way in which I could rescue his data for him (gamesaves etc)? I know it's unlikely but thought it was worth asking...

Guest Mee-9 Posted 24 June 2011 Posted 24 June 2011 If your brother doesn't know you've been on it. Don't tell him.
millzi Posted 24 June 2011 Posted 24 June 2011 If your brother doesn't know you've been on it. Don't tell him. What he doesn't know, won't hurt him
Guest Mee-9 Posted 24 June 2011 Posted 24 June 2011 What he doesn't know, won't hurt him Exactly You let him find out. Then he'll think he's done something wrong.
lcfcadam Posted 24 June 2011 Author Posted 24 June 2011 Exactly You let him find out. Then he'll think he's done something wrong. Haha well knowing my brother that's probably a good plan! But to be fair I never actually managed to get to play on it, the message was the first thing I saw when I turned it on (suggesting he turned it off whilst it was saving or something last night). A whole day bumming around the house with no FIFA, and I was only about two games away from completing my season with City by getting 3rd place
sven-your-smiling Posted 24 June 2011 Posted 24 June 2011 ive had this 5 times, but mines always restored fine tho.
Fox92 Posted 24 June 2011 Posted 24 June 2011 Contact Sony. Something like this happened to one of my mates at college, and, Sony sent him a replacement PS3 for free! Anyhow, my PS3 is doing that system update -- it gets to 5% then says 'connection error, p**s off'' or something along those lines. It happens every time, and it takes 10 minutes to get to 1%.
Fox92 Posted 12 July 2011 Posted 12 July 2011 Ps3 are awful But compared to Xbox, we don't have to pay to go online. This is the biggest factor for me.
millzi Posted 13 July 2011 Posted 13 July 2011 But compared to Xbox, we don't have to pay to go online. This is the biggest factor for me. You pay for the quality of online content on the Xbox though, I've had both and I must say I prefer the Xbox and I'm happy to pay for the Xbox Live because I know you get so much more online and the level of online gaming is so much higher.

As long as I can play Fifa online, and play ultimate team then thats that. I don't go on all these games, I only use Fifa.

Fox92 Posted 14 July 2011 Posted 14 July 2011 Yeah I was more referring to the likes of CoD and Battlefield, those kind of games. I know you were
anotherharboroughfox Posted 14 July 2011 Posted 14 July 2011 Yeah I was more referring to the likes of CoD and Battlefield, those kind of games. barring gettting map packs first what is different? And battlefield is much better quality on PC
millzi Posted 15 July 2011 Posted 15 July 2011 barring gettting map packs first what is different? And battlefield is much better quality on PC The level of competitive gaming is much higher, although I don't do all the gamebattles and shit anymore but that side of it is much better quality on Xbox
