...whereas it's been embedded into the 360 Dashboard since 20005.
Beta tested in the future?

Yes, the installing is a bad point, but you can't solve that on the PS3. It was made that way and you can't change it anymore. The patch size limit still existed for Skullgirls and that was in 2013. I don't think they ever raised it although they do allow exceptions for important games.Patches don't have to install on a 360. That's why it is better. And they removed (or raised) the patch size limit a while ago.
The Vita should give you a good idea of what they're fixing for sure.i'm curious to find out how many of these little annoyances sony actually addresses on ps4 to make a better user experience.
BTW where the hell are your Beyond impressions ?

Sometimes the demo is actually the locked full version of the game, the purchase will just unlock it. I'd guess, it saves money by having just one thing to be certified instead of two (demo+game).Downloads Terraria demo an hour ago. Tries to play it soon after. Is prompted to update.
WTF
I doubt I'll be playing it any time soon, but how many are there?
This is my main issue, but the time it finished downloading and installing the patches, I had already moved on to playing on my Vita. Ridiculous that this is still an issue.
Jesus dude. That is unacceptable. I ordered the SE from Amazon UK just like you and I got it on October 12th. BUT I LIVE IN GERMANY!!!They'll be coming real soon, got my copy on Thursday (at last and after a whole load of complaining to Amazon) but I haven't had the time to sit down and play it. Will hopefully be able to get at least a 5-6 hours in on Wednesday, so will post impressions then.
Really looking forward to it.
MS limits the size of patches to a ridiculously small file size, which causes a whole load of other problems. I really would not want anyone to copy that model.This is probably an extreme case, but it's bloody ridiculous. I hope this doesn't make it over the PS4. Just copy MS and have it so you download one damn patch instead of multiples. Is it really that hard?

Not any more, they don't.
Not sure what problems you are talking about, either.

Glad you have it though. Have fun and remember to enjoy each scene by itself focusing on her character. The larger context comes later.
Please show the source for them stopping the patch size limit. As far as I can tell it still existed at the start of 2013 which caused problems for Skullgirls. It is not a hard rule because they're willing to make exceptions. They however only make exceptions for the 5-6 biggest games of the year.
The PS3 is simply a badly designed system in terms of user-experience. The PSN Store is still a janky piece of shit 7 years after launch despite several updates.

All of you who are saying Gt5 or LBP2 are the worst never tried topatch "eye of judgment" on ps3.
31000+ files ! Taken in a row... no resume possible..
Not compatible with ps+ download system..
THAT is the undisputed worst.
Good luck taking that in less than a day
I agree with OP that it is a major pain the ass, at least compared to the 360.
Its one of the many reasons I want to see more in-depth coverage of the OS features on these next gen consoles, as little headaches like these can add up to make the difference in which console you consider your primary platform.

Exactly this, and thats a pretty common scenario.Yep. It's incredibly frustrating when you want to play a game for an hour or so and you end up spending over half of that waiting for a patch to download.
What magic is the 360 doing where this isn't even an issue? Didn't the PS3 add support for differential patching at some point? Thats the bar I have set for the PS4 - there's simply no need for overnight processing.PS Plus only downloads updates for the last 10 games you've played last time I checked. Hopefully that changes next gen.
Oh, trust me it gets worse. Add this in with mandatory installs and a 20 gig launch PS3 and... AHMAHGERDSCREWTHISCRAP. If I wanted to play GTAV on that PS3 I'd be screwing with it for a couple hours at least just to get it to run.
At this point, developers pretty much assume you have one of the newer 120 gig+ models for some reason.
I want to send my PS3s out to pasture so bad, but thanks for no BC, Sony. THANKS A LOT.
