Dark Souls Upgrade to “Prepare To Die”-Edition (PS3)

dark-souls

I own the PS3-version of Dark Souls and have already played it for some time. Now I would like to get the DLC "Artorias of the Abyss", but instead of downloading it, I would like to purchase the "Prepare To Die"-Edition, mainly for its extra content.

The questions are:

Does the "Prepare To Die"-Edition install seperately from the original game or does it integrate?

Does the PtD-Edition install a seperate trophy set?

And most importantly: Can I still use the saves that I already have in the game?

Thanks in advance for any answers.

From the information I have seen, the Prepare to Die edition creates a new save that does not access the old save. This means it does not delete old save but does not access the old save either. You best bet for continuing from your save data is just to download the DLC.

But here is a forum where they are asking the same question. Do save files and trophies carry over to 'Prepare to Die' Edition?
