I'm late to the party, but this may be useful for those who may stumble on this topic looking for an answer: The update will allow you to copy your save file, but merely by downloading it won't unlock the data. For this to work, you must launch the game and let it overwrite the save data (by starting a chapter, for example, which will trigger the autosave). After that, just go back to the PS3's save folder and you'll notice that the RE5 file isn't locked anymore.

You know what to do next: Triangle >Typing Master Torrent File there. Copy. I hope this will help those who are thinking of getting the Slim PS3 and hate the idea of losing their RE5 data.

My PS3 recently crashed beyond repair, I had only just completed the proffessional difficulty the night before had every available weapon fully upgraded and with infinite ammo, i had also just purchased the final action figure, I also had just got all the trophies including platinum! Due to my PS3 crashing I have lost all the saves for the game. I dont think I've the heart to start it all over again so is there anyone out there who would be willing to email me their saves for this game? Would be more than greatefull!!!!!
