Question about deleting games downloaded from PSN store

 

Hi there!

 

I have downloaded several games off PSN Store namely Marvel Vs Capcom 2 and Street Fighter III: Third Strike. 

 

One thing i noticed under Games on the XMB there are like 3 icons for MvC2 and 2 SFIII:TS. if i try and delete the smaller icons of the said game it says that i will be deleting the game itself. the reason why i want to delete these game icons because it just occupies space.

 

my question is can i still re-download my games even if i try and delete the "icons" of them (as explained above)?

 

 

Thanks.

Re: Question about deleting games downloaded from PSN store

Yeah you can always get them back if you delete them by accident or whatever. Go to the store, and in the top right hand corner are 4 little white icons. One is "redeem code", one is "download list" and I forget the others... The download list has all your purchases and demos etc that you've downloaded - even if they aren't accessible through the store.

 

If you've downloaded a lot, or you want something back from ages ago, it's often easier to find it on the main store, as the download list has no sorting and is horrible to navigate once you have 100s of items in it. You won't be charged for the same thing twice so download it from where ever you can find it :smileyhappy:

certain items will be re charged.  When you first download make sure it says something like " One time fee"

That's certainly true of some DLC but I can't see it being true of anything that turns up as an icon on the XMB.

 

Incidentally, if your XMB/Games list is just a massive list of games, you could try categorising everything into 'albums'. I wish the PS3 made it easier though. Having to enter the same 'album' name over and over again instead of being able to multi-select icons and add them to an existing category...

I wish it was. the XMB sure needs a lot of tweaking and polishing to do after all these years.
