Cool, that's amazing.

It's a pity I didn't discover it earlier. I wanna play it tonight so badly but it will take some time to download and by then I probably have to go to sleep so I can get up for work tomorrow. Also I only have one internet in my home.

How many internet do people usually have. I think i have one too. Anyways enjoy the game. Couple of websites gave it goty. 

Most people I know of use routers to connect many devices in their home. I get my internet through a physical cable, one device at a time. I had a router in the past but the connections were very unstable.

Sometimes I have relatives over in my house and they ask if we have Wi-fi or something to connect their smartphones and iPads. I don't know how that works. Is that through a router too?

Ahh gotcha. My modem has in built router which is supplied by the internet provider. You can get a router and connect it to modem to have wireless internet all over your house. You spend too much time in medieval times Slimebeast. Welcome to wifi's. Rumoured side effects include low sperm count though.

Medieval times.

I love the medieval times. It's my favorite era in history.

Anyway, if I buy a new router, any new router for $100 or less, and these relatives come over to my house again and ask "do you have wi-fi and can we connect our phones to it?", will I be able to say yes?

Yep. Make sure you password protect it. Than only those you share the password can access it.

It is free for the whole year! Replacing inFamous 2 (I think, I only just signed up)

With +, if you start downloading and turn of your console, it will download and install the rest of the game. Isn't that amazing! Paying a premium for functionality that the Xbox provided day 1!

That awkward moment when you don't need need ps+ to download and install a game (I'm assuming you mean the download then switch off option). At least I've never done so.

Nono, I mean download in the background, then go play a game for a bit. It will then turn itself on in the night, finish the download and install the game. I know you can currently do that, but only if you do nothing else between starting the download and the console installing it

It will also install any uninstalled stuff while you are sleeping

Background downloading is also a normal function unless you auto update, that's different.

Right, you can background download if you aren't playing most games and if you leave your PS3 on. With PS+, the console will turn itself on in the night and download and install stuff, this definitely only happens with +

Are you suggesting 360s can do that already?
