To copy games from one PS3 to another, use the Data Transfer Utility. Connect both PS3s with an Ethernet cable, go to Settings > System Settings > Data Transfer Utility, and choose 'Transfer from this system to the other PS3.' This will move all data, including game saves and games, from the original PS3 to the new one. After the transfer, activate the new PS3 with your PSN account to access your content.
