A try? I would gladly give it a try if there was a demo, but no chance - this is PS3, not 360 (where you get demos for almost anything). Plus the game is 15 GB, it woud take me forever with my connection, because, again - this is PS3, not 360 (where downloads are waaay faster). I loved Flower, still my favorite PS3 game, and I really liked Journey, but I'm not sure I'll like Swan. Videos and trailers didn't convince me at all. A short demo would have been great to find out, but I won't spent money on a game which will probably never be downloaded to my PS3 HD due to the ridiculous PS3 download speed (new system updates usually take 30 to 45 minutes with my connection). Same goes for Okami (among my most favorite Wii games): 6.2 GB DL, 20€ for the HD version? No, thanks. I love this game and I'd easily spent those 20€ for a retail Okami HD, but not for a huge download on a system that slow. |
Are the European servers that bad? I don't notice any difference in download speeds between ps3 and 360. The dashboard update for 360 actually took longer then the last ps3 update including the painfully slow install process.
Anyway the solution is simple, start download, go to the left side of the xmb, choose turn off console after download is complete. Go to bed, and the next day the game is installed and ready. Or go play on the 360 in the mean time.
