GT6 to be available on PSN for digital download

[milkk]

I have the download button but all it downloads is the Pre-order theme.

.... just went back in no download link like everyone else

 

[SpecMiata-JSW]

It popped up. Downloading for me too.

 

[Jibber_]

Nothing here yet... strangely it no longer shows as "Purchased", but rather as "Free"

 

[Crozzlow]

Glad to see I am not in a boat all alone..I too have a hard copy coming tomorrow, but couldn't wait. Planned on staying up all night driving.....it's cool. GT6 is here finally....one way or another.

 

[robbyf]

[frooky]

Jesus! Is Barrack Obama head of the psn now?!?

 

[parabulla]

I'm downloading.

 

[frooky]

I have the download button but all it does is crash! Gah!

 

[Mercwri]

I have the button but all it does is soft-crash my PS3 instead of downloading the damned game.

 

[BWX]

I also got a download button with the unfortunate "crash-to-desktop" result.

EDIT: Went back in a tried again. Success! Downloaded the bonus car pack first, and now I'm slowly getting my copy of GT6

 

[travis617]

First try I got crash to desktop and next try froze whole ps3 and had to reset it.

Edit: now working...89 minutes...!

The whole process went smooth for me. Pre-ordered yesterday, pre-loaded, installed, applied patch after midnight, and played till morning. I hope you all get it sorted out.

 

[Mercwri]

Finally up and going for me, showing about an HR download time.

Me too, just restarted my PS3 , went back to the store and the correct download button was there. Got the cars first, then Downloading game now, and now I can get some sleep

 

[BiGBrOwNPimpsta]

I hate buying off PSN.... it clearly said 12:01 EST now they removed the in the overview. Same headache with the Last of Us.

 

[WRECKU]

Finally got the download button and the 5 preorder bonus cars got downloaded. Now its showing 1% done and 561 minutes left. lol That's like 9.35hrs. Looks like I can sleep in.

 

[theteacher1907]

It's now available in North American Store; downloading.

 

[BWX]

PSN phone support said that I COULD get a refund.. Then it started downloading.. I said it must suck to have to have a job where you have to try to defend an incompetent company all day long. She laughed.

So I can download at about 4.2 MB a second and this is saying 177 minutes for a 15GB file 10 minutes after it started.

Too bad Sony couldn't add more servers temporarily for this known hit on PSN and make it smoother for everyone. No they'd rather just let people have a ridiculously slow download speed.

It'll probably by 4am before it is finished at this rate.. or even later. Sometimes it counts up.. to 178, 179 min., etc.

Oh well. guess I'll be sleeping instead of playing GT6.​

 

[Revoy]

Goodnight (:

 

[frooky]

We have ignition! I'm getting between 2-4mb/s. Went ahead and turned off wifi on the phone and laptop just in case. I wish it showed remaining time during a background download.

 

[kingpen]

I really want to buy the game but for some reason I cant purchase through my Paypal. I'm dying slowly inside.

 

[Jibber_]

Goodnight (:

If you're on a 14.4k modem, you won't finish until late on the 7th. If you include the required patch, that puts you into Sunday.

I hate to think it, but I don't think Sony made any accommodations for this DLC launch.

Downloading now weeeeeeeeeeee

 

[xiiegoGT94]

just started downloading it myself. its not midnight where im at. (pst)

 

[BWX]

Ok, so I think if you set it to download in background it picks up speed significantly.






**EDIT**

Yup, I am at about 4GB and 27% now a few min later..

So do a background download.


Now a few minutes later.........




So yeah... not too bad now I guess.

I think I need a drink. -and don't usually drink.

 

[GETEDA]

its happening!

I need 6 hour more and can start the download, now im thinking about that hot chocolate

 

[Starking]

About 11GB done after a hour. Hope my SSD makes the digital version worth it.
