So I just got my confirmation email after purchasing a game pack for Gran Turismo 5. I clicked continue shopping after purchase but my d/l did not start. It is not in my history either so I have no idea what to do now. I thought, fvkk it, i'll just get it again... but the game pack is no longer there for me to purchase. *****?

is it a case of you had already downloaded the extra game pack in a patch for GT5, and what what you bought was just an activation key for it? so if you go in-game youll find your DLC unlocked and ready to go?

or does GT5 not really work that way?

[deepershades]

you'll probably be eligible for a refund if sony customer support can corroborate what you're saying (I've been signed out of psn home with a download in progress so I know the feeling) - the punchline is you may get your money back but you may be unable to re-purchase the content using that particular account, as purchasing the same thing twice doesn't seem to be an option on the store ...... try a second account maybe?

GT5 works a bit differently than most games.....
Boot up gt5 as normal, on the startup menu instead of going straight to gt home screen, look to the very right of the screen, there'll be a button for dlc's. click that and your game pack should be there waiting to be installed.

Yeah as kev said you've unlocked the game but you have to go to the (red arrow I believe) icon on the far right of the main menu and click on the DLC you have bought which should then either be downloaded, or installed I cant fully remember now.
