Title: PS3 PSN Question...........
Post by: Greeners on December 07, 2011, 11:22:18 am
Now I'm normally fairly competent when it comes to things like this but I'm totally stumped!!

Purchased and downloaded a game from the 'Playstation Network Store' last week and for the life of me I can't find it to play! Could someone tell me where it's supposed to be?
The only place it appears is in 'Game data utility' but doesn't give the option to click/select it and play?  :confused:

Cheers

Thanks but it doesn't I'm afraid!  :sad1:

The only place the game shows up is in the 'Game Data Utility' folder and it doesn't let you select it to play in anyway!  :fighting:

I think you got to go into the playstation store, there should be an icon in the top right corner saying 'view downloads'.

Yeh the game is there, and I clicked on the download button again, it looks as though it is doing it and the download bar goes to 100% but it still doesn't appear in the game folder???m

Turns out you need to download the demo/trial version first then upgrade to the full version that I had paid for!!  :stupid: :fighting2:
