I have a 160gb hard drive and I still won't be able to handle ps plus and i refuse to upgrade my hard drive again because of the crap I went through. I am just going to hunker down and hope I don't run out before the ps4 comes out. |
Make sure to "purchase" the free games and download them when you want to play them, allowing you to delete the ones you are done with. Another good trick is to go into game data utility up a little above the trophy colection icon, you should be able to delete any game data and update data files you have, but only delete the ones from games you won't be playing or don't own anymore. These are not the same as saved game files which are in a different folder (do not delete those!), You might already know all this but others might not. It freed up a few gigs for me.

I know, but won't that get redownloaded by ps plus? Or is that the install data? I wish i could choose what i want it to download so it wouldn't download updates for crap like Home.
|
Install data takes up more space than patches, delete an install data for a game you no longer play (usually over 1Gb)
Home doesn't get downloaded unless you actually go there.
If you stop using something or use something else in its place, it will stop downloading the item.
e.g I play GT5 last but then deleted the update
PS+ sees I don't have the update for GT5 and tries to update it for me.
delete its last attempt and then use something/play something else
after you've used 3-5 other items, GT5 will no longer be a priority.
|
Is there a way to get rid of update data? For example, I don't have GTA 4 anymore. I deleted the install, but do I still have the update data on my hard drive? Also, my ps3 is set to turn on at 2 o'clock to 4oclock. I woke up at 5, and it was still on! Is this normal? I thought it ended at 4. I don't want my ps3 to overheat or stay on too long while I am asleep.

GAME>>>Game Data Utility>>look for anything GTA4 related>>>triangle>>>delete
yes, if you are downloading/updating/installing something large, the console will stay on longer than necessary to do as much of it as possible. If you don't want it to remain on for that specific session, switch on the console then switch it off again.
