  • im little mad that i couldnt wait a few days to download INFAMOUS 2 instead buying the game at walmart . i rather the game on console . But great game . Highly recomened if anybody wants a great game play.

  • Great, PSMove Ape Escape demo is here, can’t wait to try it.
    Also, Can we get some Patapon 3 avatars please?

  • Why are you charging so much for download that is not worth it. inFamous 2 download is 15GB’s to much to download in day or two at most unless you got super speed to download it then like me. I pick the disc for it and why its easy to get then download and you save whole 15GB’s on your Hard Drive unless u got 750GB or 1TB or 2TB. There is 2TB Hard Drive that can fit in PS3 if u have it mod and i know the best place to get hard drives mod with 5TB’s at in 2.5 form.

    I pay alot of money to get 5TB Solid State Drive made for my PS3, yes its big mod on SSD. Specs are as follow and when it is done i let you know who i am paying for this Solid State Drive to be made. ITs cost is alot and not cheap, it will take year at most to have it have it done.
    Specs:
    Type: 2.5″ Form Factor
    Type: Serial SATA
    Storage: 5TB Capacity
    Features: Up to 760MB/s Write Speed
    Features: Up to 800MB/s Read Speed
    Features:Up to 6Gbps Data Transfer Rate

    Extremely Super Fast Performance & i think the power to it will be like hard drive HHD is or something sense its so power.
