Can I Identify my specific PS3 game

Post by papiyaa »

Can I Identify my specific PS3 game disc from others of the same title? I'm about to sell a PS3 game on Ebay. I would like to allow returns because the game isn't in the best condition it could be and I want my potential customer to be as satisfied as possible. But, I don't want to get ripped off by someone returning a different disc (that could be in worse condition) of the same game. Is there any way to distinguish different copies of the same game? Is the number on the inner most ring on the data side unique? If so what is that number called?

The number is common to all games pressed from the same master. The only way to identify your particular disc is mark it in some way yourself.

The smart idea here would be to not have returns on eBay stuff.
I'd like to see things from your point of view but I can't get my head that far up my ass.

What's got me confused is I'm pretty sure this is a spammer posting (it was in Nadia's section which is where they seem to hang out) but I just can't figure out how it does anything useful for them.

Working IT security I could come up with a scenario, however it's so far fetched it's laughable...

Does it involve sharing the C:\ drive on a production computer? :lol:

Well your system drive is shared by default ;).

The crazy scenario is that this individual has targeted someone on this forum to gain their login information. Via social engineering (to which I won't get into detail), this individual managed to get a member of the forum to click on a link in their PMs that infected their computer via the current Java exploit. However, to gain any login information after that point the targeted individual would have to log into something, and if the OP was getting impatient, they would post a topic that would prompt a response from the targeted individual, granting them the login information.

Since at least 90% of the people who have any type of account on the internet have the same login information for every account.... a breach that yielded the login information from this forum has a high likelihood of transferring to financial accounts and email.
