Once you log in, head to the game you want to purchase or demo you want to try , buy it and follow the checkout process as usual. Step 2: On the Thank You page after you check out, go to the bottom where the game is listed and look for the Download to your PS3 button. Click on it. Once downloaded, your game will be installed and ready for you to play under the Games section on the XMB. For remote-downloading a game to your PS Vita, follow the same process outlined on steps 1 and 2 above until you reach the Thank You screen after your purchase is done.
Step 4: Once there, click on the Download… button at the bottom right of the page. I usually use this on tuesdays. You forgot about being able to hit the PS button to turn the system on aswell. I didn't know about the download thing though.. I usually only get one thing at a time anyway.
Just like not many people knows that you can set it to download, install and to turn itself off after. Great for nightly downloading. I do this every tuesday, I go to sleep and the next morning everything is ready!! I didn't know about this and I had my PS3 since day one. Where have I been. I feel like you should not have to go through all that though and they should automatically install anyway. I want it to install while im playing another game like the xbox.
I do not want to wait there and watch it install people want it to install in the background like the xbox. Ima huge ps3 supporter just look at my history but i aint a blind fanboy. This does not help people. I understand your comment but this has something to due with the security on each platform.
The Xbox doenst install the game because its downloaded in way that is ready to be played. Meaning, it doenst install! Its downloaded ready to be played. The PS3 is diferent. Imagine you donwload a BMP from the internet. When it arrives on your computer you just click on it and its displayed. This is how the X files work. Still, its not an excuse by any means.
Just diferent aproaches to the same thing. No i get that it makes sense. Sony needs to change it to how xbox does it. Xbox is pretty simple in that you can shut the system down and it will uses low power mode to continue to download and then fully shutdown.
PS3 remain completely on which isnt very energy efficient. Then again, they both achieve the same results but are just handled in their own ways. We cant expect them to be the same. That is what makes each one unique. If people are wanting the ps3 to do things like the then go get a and vice versa. Sony has a different way of going about doing things I get that. Why you have to download and then install all in separate steps is beyond me and it used to bother me but the dl and install times have sped up significantly since the begining of this generation that it honestly is an afterthought to me anymore..
Also I'm a plus subscriber so my ps3 automatically turns on, dl's updates, patches, firmware etc and then turns off when i'm asleep.. It works so well that I can't remember the last time I had to sit there and wait for my ps3 to update a game or whatever For psn being free it is a very very high quality service.. Your last part is a bit interesting. You are a "plus" member and say that "psn being free it is a very very high quality service".
Granted that PLUS is optional but the point you made about how it does all these things when you sleep isnt available to the free PSN users. If it was then i would agree with you but seeing as you need to pay to get that perk sort of takes the wind out of that sail. I think he means that the free part is pretty great already and the PLUS-part just makes it that much better. I totally agree with that statement, but there is a time when you have to wait for an update and that is when you play a game for the first time and there are updates available.
Obviously PLUS had no chance to download them already. I recently had that with Resistance 3. I played it months after it came out and had to wait through 4 updates. However, that is very rare since i have PLUS. The features and content that it adds to psn makes it outstanding.. I honestly think that if Microsoft adopted a similiar model, like say they have gold be free where you can play online and do the basic online functions.
But if you're a paid platinum subscriber you get access to exclusive demos and content, you get access to all of that other fluff that they have on top of live, and you have a similar auto update feature that it would be tremendously successful..
I also want to be able to be on Netflix while downloading stuff. That's not a RAM issue, that's a bandwidth issue for the internet. I'm pretty sure the interupts downloading as well when software accesses online features, including Netflix. I may be wrong and they may have changed that though. Thats not a limit of RAM, more your broadband speed. Downloading a games while trying to stream video would just cause your video to keep buffering.
However, i have tested out before and it seems the ps3 is slower. I did this by running both x and ps3 simultaneously both hook up to the same router.
When more things are going, both slow down quite significantly, but x still seem to load a tad faster. I have to agree with you on that. I also own both systems and downloading demos and games on the is a whole lot better. It's great when you're downloading full games but it's only really handy if you're leaving the PS3 on overnight. Sadly it isn't like the where it'll install in the background. The doesn't install in the background. It doesn't install at all. It's just ready to play after the download.
It's like how Battlefield 3 is a mandatory install on the PS3 before you can play, and the version is playable right from insertion of the disk. Select your profile and press X.
Doing this logs you into your PlayStation 4. Select PlayStation Store and press X. It's one tab left of the home page. Scroll down to select Games and press X. You'll do so in menu bar on the left side of the screen.
Select Demos and press X. It's an option on the left side of the screen. Select a demo you'd like to download and press X. Any games listed on this page have a free demo available. Select Try Free Demo and press X. This option is below the game's icon on the left side of the screen. Once you press X , your selected demo will begin downloading. Once the demo finishes downloading, it will be available from the home page as well as your PS4's game library.
Method 2. Turn on your PlayStation 3. You can do this by pressing the console's "On" switch or by pressing a connected controller's PS button. Select a profile and press X. This will sign you into your PlayStation 3's home page. Scroll down to select PlayStation Store and press X. This will open the PlayStation store. This option is on the left side of the screen. Select a game you'd like to try and press X. You can download a free demo for any game listed on this page.
Once the demo finishes downloading, it will be available in your PS3's game library. Method 3. Now leave it alone, as each download finishes, it will automatically install the game or demo.
The beautiful part is that as it installs one game or demo, it continues downloading the other items in your queue.
