PS3 install duplicate glitch

Hey guys,

 

I was wondering if anyone had the same problem as me? Basically, I downloaded Cool Boarders and Fear Effect off the PStore, and when I installed them I still had the install bubble in the XMB. I tried reinstalling to get rid of it but that only reinstalled...it seems to me like the only way to get rid of it is to delete it.

 

It would be good to know if I'm not the only one with this problem.

Are they minis? If so it could be so you can copy them to a PSP, as I don't believe you can install the game on the PS3 and then copy it anymore

They were just regular PS1 games.

 

Thanks for the reply, so I guess it isn't a glitch but just a pain. Well, its a relief that its not a glitch and it was intentional. I guess I will have to redownload the games for the PSP.

 

 

EDIT: Thanks for the reply too moriarty, I do feel a bit silly now. :smileytongue:

Its a feature that was added in a recent firmware release. Games that are already installed on the PS3 (PS1, minis etc) can't be copied over to PSP anymore. The install file is left on the PS3 so people can install the game on to a PSP without having to download the game again.

 

Just delete the install file after you have installed the game on to the PS3.
