(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm not sure if anybody else here has done this, but it hasn't been posted by anyone so I guess I'm the first. Note though you do need two PS3's one on 3.41 and another on 3.50, this is an addon to the well known data transfer method but with this way you don't need to do it everytime to use a different patch! So for example if you want to change between different patches like, Roll the dice to Zombies etc. Follow the steps below:


  1. Edit your patch on your jailbroken 3.41 PS3 and use data transfer utility to send it to the 3.50 PS3. More in-depth tutorial on how to do this is around the forum.
  2. Now on your 3.50 PS3, check your patch works right then plug in some storage device and go to System Settings>Backup Utility>Back Up. This will backup your all the data on the PS3 onto your storage (including the MW2 patch). The backup is only small, 30MB!
  3. Now do steps 1 and 2 for how many patches you want. Now I recommend you copy these backups onto your computer to keep a record on what patch is in what backup.
  4. Now when you feel like a change of patch go to System Settings>Backup Utility>Restore and choose the back up with the patch in it you want. Don't worry this only takes less than a minute to complete.
  5. Do step 4 everytime you want to change your patch.

So, instead of deleting all my games from psn, I could just delete ps home and the data size will drop greatly?
