Forums - Sony - I own all the current systems. My biggest problem with the PS3 is.....

GT5 is one of the worst for updates, I love them and loathe them at the same time. Love them for enhancing the game and getting rid of the bugs but loathe them for taking so long to download.

Its even worse when you pick up a game that has been out for ages like GT5 has, by then they have patched the game more than 10 times, with each patch being usually more than 100mb each time.

The worst part is, Sony makes you pay for the automatic-updates service. Just boot you console and test run it the day before you play. Or sell it.

Well apparently they give it to you for free now....

It's nice that M$ gives you these options for free, oh wait....

You mean background downloading or downloading with the console turned off?  The do give you that for free.  No need to wait at all.

The feature where it turns itself on in the middle of the night to download updates. it used to be + exclusive and now isn't. The 360 did downloads while off, but not automatic patching

Not bad! When did that happen?

That and the horribly laggy and sluggish OS. It had the best library IMO, but the worst OS.

Recently I think, I now have PS+ so haven't noticed the difference. Sony want PS+ to only pay for multiplayer, cloud storage and free games/discounts

Well, it's a really good thing.



I feel sorry for those who are going to buy the PS3 now to play the exclusives or even the multi platform games. Hope they have the patience to go through all the updates and mandatory installs.
