Gamesharing Guide

**Nitehawk772** · 04-17-2011

I have seen that a ton of people on here have no clue how to gameshare so I decided to make this guide to teach people how.

Note: I cannot be held responsible if your account is hacked, banned, or otherwise hurt/closed. Gameshare at your own risk.

1 - Make sure the person your gamesharing with is trustable. If you don't know google their name.

2 - Exchange PW/Email used to sign up for PSN account. and either write it down or put it in a word document on your computer so you don't forget it.

3 - Create a new user

4 - [Optional]Name the new user the name of whoever your gamesharing with. (For example if you were gamesharing with me my psn account is Andrew801 so you would name the user Andrew this makes it easier to sort it out)

5 - Go into the user named after whoever your planning on gamesharing with

6 - Go over until you reach 'Sign up for PSN' Select that then Select 'Use Existing account'.

7 - Enter the login details they gave you And login. (If they don't work go back onto your account and change your password IMMEDIATELY)

8 - A popup should appear saying Welcome, (Insert whoever your gamesharing with names here)!

9 - Hit 'Proceed to Playstation Store' at the bottom.

10 - Sometimes it asks you to sign in. If it does sign in and it will bring you to the PS Store. Make sure to put auto sign in on in case you ever want to go back when whoever your gamesharing with is offline to see if they got any new add ons.

11 - Click 'View downloads' in the top right corner of the screen when in the PS Store.

12 - Download what you want and log back into your account.

13 - [OPTIONAL] Change password/email.

14 - Go enjoy your new add ons/games!

Extra Information

*Each add on can be gameshared up to 4 times on 5 different PS3s.*

*As some consider this 'Piracy' this is legal as Sony includes in the license on most games that it can be shared on 5 different PS3s. So use your shares wisely!*

*There are a few games that cannot be gameshared including Warhawk, and a few other games.*

*Make sure you don't delete the user you used to login to the other persons account or you will get an error message when trying to use the add on/game and it won't let you use/play it.*

*Gamesharing may get you free stuff but it is a bannable offense according to Sony so don't let them know your gamesharing*

*Gamesharing is fun but it can also get your account stolen so be careful.*

*Avatars cannot be gameshared.*

*Gamesharing is also known as gametrading.*

*Gamesharing causes Sony and other game developers to lose money so if you like a game or add on you have buy it and encourage game developers and Sony to keep making games*
