GT6 to be available on PSN for digital download

[7Spoke]

Whoa. It took 6,6 hours to download the game and additional 4 (yes, four) hours to install it to the HDD. "1th gen" slim with 250GB HDD, some 40GB free space before I started downloading GT6.

On my SSD-equipped PS3 it took 2:10 minutes to install the patch after downloading it.

And also 30 minutes to install the game.

I downloaded, installed the 1.01 update at midnight.
And now the game is stuck ata a language choice screen.
Restarting the PS3 did not help.

I have lost at 2 hours on this today (1 for installing, 1 now) and I am really angry now.
Now deleting the game before re-downloading. This is the last time I buy a PS3 game.

Where are you jerome71 uk?

 

[jerome71]

Where are you jerome71 uk?

France, luckily with a 200Mb/s internet connection.

PS3 language set to English. Tried changing the language to French but that did not help.

Where are you jerome71 uk?

France, check his profile information - it has the tricolore.

I'm getting the hardcopy tomorow. But if I was to have downloaded it, I would still need to wait 2 mins.

Is that what you're asking?

 

[JacksHerer]

Yeh, wanted to confirm im not sat here with a bummed install

 

[iainoflo85]

Cool, 00.00 here now, give it a try then.

 

[JacksHerer]

I'm in... Now downloading update... Installing update...
Reading hundreds of pages of license info before I accept....
I'll watch this opening video, then bed.. A busy day racing tomorrow!

Gnight and Gluck

 

[Smeagol]

downloading patch now

 

[dan.k]

Damn hell it takes like forever! 2h off installing 95% (first 60gb EU model)

Maybe i should have formated the drive?

 

[GTsimms]

One would think, since Steam can be linked to a PS3 account. They would learn from steam and allow 2 or 3 days for pre-install and just unlocks with a small update.

 

[theteacher1907]

Well i'm gonna take a short nap and be up in time to start download at midnight. See you guys on the other side.

That, is some sound logic

 

[Jose Frias]

hmm I just bought it, got the theme but I can't start the download. I'm in Toronto... what gives??

im having the same problem as you, it looks like we have to wait until midnight for download.

FAIL OF EPIC PROPORTIONS SONY YOU *****!!!

Try to boot up PSN PREORDER AT 12:00 06-12 and I get the message:

"This content can be used if you renew the licence on the playstation store"

I proceed to PS Store to be linked to the checkout to buy the game again? Seriously WTF? GT6 no longer exists in my downloads. PSN is the worst online network ever!!! 👎

Wow, you're brave! I wouldn't attempt that install. I hope it works for you. According to some reports, you only have 47 gigs left right off the bat. If you ran GT5 on the same drive I don't think you'd have room unless you deleted everything. The PS3 needs some swap file room, not sure how much. Good luck, hope it works.

You have to pre order before 12 not at 12 or after because it's not a pre order if it is the day of release.

 

[ELPRESADOR]

Ok after having to make 2x calls to customer service they tell me to wait until the afternoon. Do not purchase the game twice. Call them back later because they have no idea what is going on. Smooth digital release 🤬

Isn't a digital release meant to be more convienient? Will never again spend a cent on Psn. Should have bought the disk version.

[Jose Frias]

[theteacher1907]

2 hours 4 minutes at time of writing.

 

[frooky]

I sincerely hope the North American hub isn't brought to its knees in two hours. If it's not done downloading so I can start the install before I leave for work in the morning I will be irritated even more that I didn't go for the gamestop preorder pack

 

[xChrisGTRx]

Still no download here yet in GA (US) 2 hours 37 minutes left
