I reaally don't want to start all over again, i had 67% and had caught 270 of 350 shards which took me a lot of time.
Is anyone else here having this problem? I'm sure this wouldn't be difficult for Sucker Punch to fix if they wanted to...
Btw, my version is the EU one. So was the boxed version. But i've read about some people that had the US version recognize the saves, so probably this is an issue exclusive to the EU one.
Oh, and i'm not the only one having this problem with the game
. I checked the Sucker Punch forums and bam! : You must login or register to view this content.Cheers!

This awesome guy sharktejo from the Sucker Punch forums found a solution, it's really easy. Turns out you just need to replace a file from your old save onto your new one and voilá. Enjoy the game! :love:
(btw, mods you guys can close this. but perhaps you should leave this here so it can help other people running into this issue)

I found the solution to this problem, at least for european users.
You will need an usb pendrive and a computer.
Inser the pendrive on your PS3 and copy the old savegame on inFamous into it, then put your pendrive in a computer and inside the inFamous save folder there is a filed named STATE, copy that file into your desktop, next go back to your PS3 and load the PSN version of inFamous and create a new savegame.
Then copy the new savegame to the pendrive, and connect to your computer again, open the new save folder in your pendrive and put the STATE file that you copied to your desktop in this new save folder.
Final step, put your pendrive back in the PS3 and copy the save from the drive, it will ask if you want to overwrite, say yes. The information in the save file remains equal as if you were in the beginning of the game, but when you load the game it will resume where you were in the disc version, now simple save the game and voila the information, is updated.
PS: in this process you should realize what's the cause of the old save not loading in the PSN version of inFamous, the savegame folder as diferent id code for the game, in my case the disc version folder is named "BCES00609_INFAMOUS_1" and the PSN version is named "BCES00220_INFAMOUS_1", so the reason is very simple, the games have diferent versions and the PS3 see's it as two different games.
I hope this helped a lot of people, and have a good game.
