Domalish_TG Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Hi. I've bought second Playstation 3(for some boost and etc). And previous user haven't logged in account but he was playing games and also unlocked quite big ammount of trophies(around 200). He unlocked the most of them at 2013. But there's no time and dates.(I've checked the save time). Can I log in to my PSN account? I haven't find same topics or rules that don't allow me to do it. But I want to be sure I won't get ban my account from leaderboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post HuntingFever Posted December 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) Don't risk it, just nuke the hard drive and wipe it clean, then reinstall the latest official firmware and add your own clean account. Whenever you buy a second-hand console, phone, hard drive or computer, always format it before doing anything else, because you never know what the previous owner used it for, thus it could be full of illicit things that will land you in a world of trouble.

Katt Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) yeah, don't do it. Wipe everything and start fresh. Just to be sure, install the official firmware TWICE. Do it with an USB drive, here's the official: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/hardware/ps3/system-software/ Edited December 20, 2021 by Katt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkrobot_pb Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) I picked up a used PS3 this weekend. The guy had already reset the console himself so I connected to the internet, installed the firmware update and that was that. No need to overthink it (unless there are still digital games installed on it that are delisted or something ) Edited December 20, 2021 by pinkrobot_pb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iriihutoR84 Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Why would you even want to have trophies on your account that someone else earned? That would make you a cheater either way, regardless of whether or not you could get away with it. No fun or honor in being a cheater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otonio_Bruno Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I'd be most concerned with missing timestamps trophies, since this is an user that has no PSN attached to it and it would mess up a bunch of milestones...not worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saiyanbloodstyle Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 200 trophies since 2013 isn't a lot, why bother trying to claim that? If you mean 200 platinums still shouldn't but more understandable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
