These won't be the only ones either. They are going to rotate new ones in. Not sure how often though. So we will have a lot of slow days ahead of us.

[The Squirrel]

Hopefully not too often. I need time to download them all!

[KALEL114]

I decided to grab InFamous 2 and it said it would take 438 minutes to finish. Yikes.

[Havok83]

I couldnt even download A4O. I need to get a new HDD, like now

[The Squirrel]

Yep. That's my next goal.

[SpideyVille]

So what's up with the free games? Is it just for a limited time like for this week, or is it for good?

[Havok83]

The UK update says it will change every month. Im assuming thats the case for US as well

[Electro UK]

I think three games swap around every month. The longest a game can be available in the US is 16 weeks and in the EU its 12 weeks, but the US has 12 games on offer and EU has 10.

[JaD]

Ha, I just realized I needed to resume my download of Ratchet & Clank when I got home since I paused it at 67% before I went to bed yesterday (since I didn't want to leave all the downloads running) and it had already been downloading for about 5 hours before then. Back to the download, oh and I gotta install it too right? Bleh, but I'm not complaining.

Thanks Sony

[The Squirrel]

If you set the console to turn off after downloading, it will install the download as well.

[JaD]

Yeah I know that, but like I said, I had my system on for about 5-6 hours already and I still had 2 other downloads queued. Wanted to give my baby some rest for the night.

[The Squirrel]

Yeah, the PS4 needs faster download speed.

[SpideyVille]

Considering how most people feel the next gen systems will be download only and no discs, it very well better have a fast download speed.

[Jick09]

I like having the games in my shelves.
I'll miss that if everything becomes digital.

[SpideyVille]

I'm kinda torn. I like having the physical media too, but at the same time, I wonder how things would change if everything was digital. Will games be cheaper, will systems need to have more memory, will games be released more quickly, etc.

[The Squirrel]

If the PS4 has price sales like Steam, I'd be fine with it being all digital. As long as they ship with large hard drives.

[JaD]

I guess I can adjust if need be, but I agree that I love having the disc, case, all that stuff. It lights up the shelf in a way.

[SpideyVille]

The only people who would really suffer are the middlemen, like Gamestop who make money off of buying and selling used games. Digital would really change the business aspect of it.

Then again, I don't have any experience with Steam so I don't know how that's been working.

[The Squirrel]

Steam really is the only way I buy PC games these days. It's the best. They have huge sales several times a year where they slash prices ridiculously low.

[Havok83]

Oh man, just realized that Home was taking up 3 gigs of space. Delete! Im now able to install R&C: A4O. Speaking of which, I hate that itakes 14gb to download and then you need an extra 14gb to install. WTH? I wish Sony had updated the firmware so that games came already playable when you download without needing to install.

6/12? They might as well have said 6/13 bc I went to bed at 12:30 and the store still wasnt updated. Wonder what took so long. Oh well, doesnt look like this was worth it anyway
