It lives, my 360 is back
You have to download everything again because they'll it also means deactivation of the account on your PS3. However, don't hold your breath. Sony are major ****s when it comes to account deactivation.

You will have to re-download. Everything will be there, but in your download list in the PSN store. Also do you not have physical access to the console you are trying to deactivate? If so, I wana warn you that Sony r very bitchy about deactivation.

I haven't done it myself but from what I've read online, people get mixed answers when they bring this up with Sony on the phone.

Some people say they will offer a one-time customer service deactivation, some say Sony wants $150 (lol bs). Others say that they were required to provide serial numbers, receipts, etc. Some say that at first Sony said there was nothing they could do, but once pressured they caved in.

You will have to click download and the content will activate. Cancel once it starts to download (you already have it downloaded).

My friend has reset his gameshare slots twice on the same account now. No staff will ask you to pay (if so, prove it and I will personally fire them). Just keep emailing over an over again and they will eventually reset your slots again. I may be wrong, I only handle reports.

You must login or register to view this content.

click ps3 systems
there is a button that says "deactivate"!

EDIT: :fu: sony, it only gives you instructions on how to deactivate.

Might I ask what your friend told Sony, I'm positive if he said "I want a deactivation due to gameshare" they would be like no goml lol
