    Online progress for multiplayer games is stored online. Sign into your account on the new PS3 and it's there. You'll still need to download and install your games to the new PS3.

    It's an online EA game so you have a record of wins losses and you get points to add to your stats as you go. Also you have created characters they are not available.

    Is there anything that can be done with the old hard drive as i believe it's in full working order

    There's no way of transferring the data from it to a new PS3. Did you have PS+?
