Once you downloaded a game example Modern Warfare 2 You´ll have this folder on your Pc the Id of your game BLUSXXX or
BLESXXXX(The Xs are numbers) if You have an external hdd you need to create a folder called GAMEZ or GAMES it doesn´t matter, after copy the game to that folder but if you don´t have one you have to connect via Ftp and google it´s you friend

If you want to play games, that requieres a disk, with a broken blu-ray drive, you can use the cobra-usb dongle for playing them.

Here's a 'review' from You must login or register to view this content.
Originally posted by another user

I recently received my Cobra USB (about a week ago), and my personal experience has been really good. I been JB my PS3 with various methods since last year like for example, TI84+ method, E3 USB, CFW (kmeaw), and now Cobra USB.

I thought it was gonna be the same stuff as E3 or Kmeaw CFW, but it surprised me, and Im even thinking about writing a review about my experience with a compatibility list or something.

For example I been testing a few games in the regular way (directories structures) and the new ISO method implemented by Cobra USB Manager, and the I have noticed that games that never worked without a CD inserted are working using the ISO method, without any kind of patch or update. This includes WWE RAW vs Smackdown 2011 (Sound works and game doesn't freeze ingame, without modding), Medal of Honor (works without a disc present on drive).

I am running all games externally on a 2TB drive on a BC PS3 model and no problems so far, Im still testing other features like PS2 ISOs and so far everything is running smooth.

BTW, my PS3 doesn't have a working BD-Drive so all this is working without having any kind of disc inserted on the drive. The partition where I have all the PS3 stuff is FAT32.

So my conclusion about what I have tested is that Cobra USB Manager methods of mounting ISOs is great. I love multiMAN but I honestly haven't seen this kind of compatibility with multiMAN running the regular / standard method (directory). To give another example, Im running FFXIII externally without any trouble with a split ISO, I even noticed faster loading times with this method. And this really simulates the disc existence on the drive, you can see the proper disc icon at XMB when a game is selected on the manager (this goes for PS2 discs too).

Anyway if you are thinking about getting a Cobra USB my personal opinion is to get it, and give it a try, many people are talking stuff without having experience with it, and honestly I think that's just ignorant.

I will probably start working on my personal review with a compatibility list or something at some point (if there is nobody working on that atm) so people can really see what this dongle can do.

Peace all =).

SeeYa!
