New idea for auto download

today i was thinking. the auto download feature that the people that have PS+ have. 

 

i know some people wish they could say what game games the ps3 will download and what not to download. then i got thinking. lets say you are a beta test, your having luntch brake and you look at your privet emails. after deleting 15 spam email you come acros a PS beta game to test out and you have a code to get the game, no 80% of the people that would be doing  this would have acces to the internet at there work place. so you jump on the playstation website (hope the boss or IT havent blocked the website) and activate the code.

 

now this is where i would like to see what people would think about it. i would like to see a way after activating the code there would be two (2) options. one would be to just activate the code and have it sitting in the download list waiting for you when you have time to download it (and for the people that have kids, try to download the game before the kids eat it all up looking at youtube and facebook) or the other way is to have a way to push the beta game to the ps3 via the auto download feature. so when you get home, turn on the ps3 and find the game readdy to play with no waiting time.

 

just a thort bot would like to see what people think about it and if people like it. lets hope sony put it on the website and would like to see it on the vita to get the vita games quick without needing to look for a wifi to (shifty eyes) borrow :smileywink:

Re: New idea for auto download

Sounds good. The only problem is, there is ono way to push something like that to a powered of PS3 since it is only connected to the internet while it is turned on. Currently, playstation plus subscribers specify a time for the console to turn itself on and do the auto updates so it would all depend on which time this is set for.

It could work to add the download to your queue so that next time you turn it on it downloads it though. If you have it set to do updates during the day while you're at work you would be good to go when you got home.
