So I got the YLOD

And I know my PS3 is dead, it's 4 years old and I'm not trying to get it fixed, I'm just going to buy a new one. But my question is, that when I buy a new one how to I transfer my games to my new PS3? Do I just log in and redownload the games, or is it a process like proving that the games I got from PSN are my games? Or am I just screwed?

Yea you log in and download your games from your download list. Nothing else. I feel for you, I got the YLOD 2 weeks ago :(. I did the hairdryer trick, it fixed it and it's still working now a week after.sergemyster8

Or you could just take your hard drive out with a screwdriver and put it back in the new one and PRESTO EVERYTHING LIKE IT WAS!!!!Awesome-Possum

Welcome to the club, I got mine last year. I know how you feel. Just one piece of advice. Buy a new one, don't "repair" yours (yourself or by Sony). I did the hairdryer trick too and tried applying new cooling paste on the cell, but it didn't work out for me...lost all my save games...

Indeed, I learned the hard way...
