This requires you to have CFW (obviously) so you can run backup managers and all that good shit :p


As you know, you can backup games straight from the disc onto your PS3 or external hard drive (if you have the space of course).

So, if you simply go to gamestop, buy a game (keep the receipt), and back it up onto your PS3....

You can return the game for the full amount they gave it to you for.

However, I think all gamestops only give you in store credit, so that's the only downside is that you can only re spend your money on another game ( or any other product in the store ).

I did this twice with one receipt, im not sure how many times you can do it before they get suspicious.

I would do it a maximum of 3 or 4 times per receipt.


If you live by multiple game stops, buy the game at one location, and return it the next day at the other.

Also, if you spend a big amount (say 60$ for a new copy of ghosts)

and then you take it back...

Spend it in portions, ( go to Gamestop one day and get a game for like 10$, then later or the next day buy another for 10$, and so on till your credit is ran out )

Return them on different days, that keeps you with a low profile and able to re do this more than 3-4 times. (the more receipts, the lower the chance of raising suspicion).

Enjoy, and don't get caught! :yes:

Nice satan but not new for me i have this done 3-4 years ago when i had a PSP with CFW. I bought a game, backed up the Game on my Console returned it (30 mins - 1 hour) after i bought it

When i had my ps3 i did this with around 30 games in a year.
Just said im an extreme gamer and already finished the game.
Probably couldve done it more ;P

Omg, good idea!

I was just telling them i didnt like the game!

This is genius! xD

Good Tut, but what about Torrents ;p

Yo bitches, can you use these games online from the backup?

Of course lel

That makes me wet and question whether I should've bought all these games...

Or instead of doing that, buy the game used and return it later on. You get a full refund this way.

are you trolling or you didn't read the post because this was literally the entire point in the thread
