C1: First trip to the PS3
wake up, time for us to realize
Firstly, turn on that PS3, since we'll need some files from the game, specifically the EBOOT.BIN. Make sure to plug the USB stick on the port that is farthest away from the edge of the console (the rightmost one, or right one if you have a slim model).
You will need a file manager for this, my personal recommendation is IRISMAN since it's the one I use. It's also the one that I'll show on this guide. But, as long as it works, you can use any manager you want.
Anyways, enter IRISMAN, and press Start to open the Global Options, then press X on Tools, and X again on File Manager.
You'll see two tabs, just like this image below.
On whichever side you choose to navigate, go to dev_hdd0 and press X. You'll see a lot of folders, don't panic. Depending on where you have the game, the path to the file will be different.
If you have dumped a physical copy of the game, the game will be in the GAMES folder, as either BLUS31604 or BLES02247 for America and Europe, respectively. You probably will see a PS3_GAME folder there, enter it.
If you have the PSN version of the game, go to the game folder, then search for a folder that's named either NPUB31848 or NPEB02436, depending on the region of your game.
Your screen should look like this.
After that, enter the USRDIR folder, this is where you'll find the EBOOT.BIN. In order to copy it, press right (or left, if you decided to do it on the right tab) and enter dev_usb000, that's your USB stick. Return to the other tab and press Triangle on the EBOOT.BIN and select Copy.
Wait for it to finish and you're done here. Turn off your PS3 and unplug your stick, we're going to the PC.
