I'm guessing I can't just download the trial version of SSF4AE and then magically revert to the full version when it's out?

haven't people had problems in the past downloading a ps+ trial then later on buying the game digitally or getting it as a ps+ free download

the trails make you finish them, but if that game becomes a free game like resident evil 5 did you just have to run the trail until it expires and then attempt to launch the game again after you "buy" the full version and it should automatically turn into the full version. RE5 gold did for me at least
Psn store still on LOLgrace time I see. Why is the us store the only one with a random ass update time.

it's still like 2 hours before the store "normally updates" it almost never updates this early. It's usually between 4-6PM CST

Normally being the key word. I wish they just had a set time like all the other country's.

I think you can, you just wont be able to activate the free PS+ version until you launch the trial and let the timer run out. After the trial is over, you get the free PS+ version from the store and it should activate the trial.

I don't think this is true, I havent played MGS4 in years and when the patch came out, + updated it.

I've had the same thing happen. Uncharted 3 was updated even though I hadn't played it in about 6 months. Games I downloaded with PS+ a few weeks ago aren't updated if I haven't started them.

Edit: PS+ probably updates games on your trophy-list?
 
I downloaded the ssf4 ae timed demo last week

turns out it's not a timed demo anymore. Don't have to download it again ^_^
 
Bizarrely a friend of mine mentioned this today. He has no idea either, so if anyone does find a fix please share it. :)

I had a similar problem when I tried to download RE5. Install failed, and I had a hand full of corrupted data files left behind. Try this:

- delete the corrupt files
-reboot the PS3 into safe mode
- rebuild the catalog--I think that is what it's called. It's the one that resets all the meta data.

See if that does the trick.
 
Ever since ive signed up to Playstation Plus i now get a shit load of 'corrupted data' files under my game tab, even if i delete them they just come back the next day, anyway i can fix this? really annoying.

Do make sure your saves are backed up before you do anything, there's a chance your hard drive is having issues.
 
Ugh. I just downloaded more than 90% of Street Fighter IV AE's 18GB when i got a download error and apparently all the data is gone. I was looking forward to this but it's not worth nearly 40GB of my bandwidth.
 
Not sure if this was known already, the replacement game for Mortal Kombat Vita in Australia and Germany:

"Mortal Kombat for VITA for Australia and Germany will be replaced by Lego Batman (PSP)"

WTF... this can't be possible... Lebo batman (PSP)... not even a Vita game...
 
so I just started playing Arkham City on hard (I always play everything on hard) but man I am getting my ass served to myself on a platter?!
Even the first sequence with catwoman took me a dozen tries before I beat all the thugs up, what am I missing here?
its just square square and triangle as soon as you see an enemy attacking right?!
 
Are you guys really that hard up for HDD space? No one upgraded their HDDs? I have 500GB and I'm nowhere near filling it up yet.

I've got a 320GB (298GB usable), and there's 16GB space left. I've got 76 games installed (of which 13 are larger retail titles) + a plethora of demos, and some videos. PS+ is really eating up the space, and I've had to delete some games to make room for new ones.

They should all be uploaded to 'the cloud' well any important ones (i mainly use it for netflix tbh so games are secondary), sucks im my hdd is on the way out, had this 1 less than a year :(

Same here, 320 Gb is the minimum for Plus, imho.

How many games do you have in there that you're never gonna touch again? :P
 
My 120 GB is still going strong. I only get one or two game at a time. The others I add to the list and when I finish some I add others.

Probably quite many, especially those old PS1/2 titles, but I don't have the heart to delete them, and they don't really take that much space either. I'll probably delete most of the PS+ retail games when I've played them through, but the problem is that the service gives games in a faster pace than I can play them. =)
 
You will ask yourself if it was worth it.. when that happens, remember: You only paid for + and your time.

I just left my console on all night to download it, ran the installation before I left for work.

Although the other game installed when I shut the machine off, so I guess I could have just did that and only had the patch to install.
 
Will any of the older games disappear when MK hits? Haven't even had time to play GR, I see with todays release everything else is still there

edit, nvm. Read OP. As long as I claim them I should be good for as long as I have plus :), which is pretty crazy!

edit2, thanks HiddenAway, I'll make sure to put them in DL history before that

Chronovolt on 19th December (replaced by Mortal Kombat/Lego Batman PSP)
Tales from Space: Mutant Blobs Attack on 21st December (replaced by Kyntt Underground)
 
Where is the PS plus section?

I cannot find it.

Fuck this new store.

edit: I cant click the games tab. Just doing some sort of "bewww" noise.

Fuck this new store.
 
Regarding MK in Germany, don't they have a law which forbids anything to be put up for free if it's rated 18+? Don't know about Australia. :P
 
Today I learned that PS+ apparently handles downloading and installing too. I turned my ps3 off last night with 4gb to go on street fighter and all of rochard and I turn it on today to see both downloaded and rochard was even installed. Would have been nice if it did SF instead since that took 40 minutes to install but I didn't even know it did that to begin with.
 
That's not a PS+ thing. If you have something downloading and you tell the PS3 to turn off when they're done it'll install everything for you.

He might be talking about automatic downloads. If you turn automatic downloads on and turn off the system while a background dl is in progress/install bubbles are available, it'll finish the download and install when it wakes up for automatic downloads.
