    Data transfer to new PS3

    Is it possible to easily transfer all my data from a 60G Ps3 to a 120g slim
    I have just sold my 60g (never had a PS2 anyway)
    Most of my game save data can transfer via USB pen drive as i already have 2 consoles and can transfer data between then depending on which room i want to play in.
    The problem i have got is that Assasins creed 2 will not allow me to copy game saves this way so i have always had to play this on the 60g
    Now i have sold it (not collecting it until tonight)
    I really dont want to loose all my progress and have to start all over again
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    if youve got an ext hdd you coul ddo a backup but remember to deactivate the machine before you sell so its not active on your psn account as youre only allowed 5

      Managed to do it now thanks.
      There is actually a Transfer data option hidden in the
      System options menu.
      You have to connect both consoles together with an Ethernet cable
      That transferred all my content even the DRM content and then deleted off of my original PS3.
      But i had to deactivate my console from PSN first
      Just doing a full format now 3 more hours to go.

        Happy Gaming.
