Question

So, in order to download these games, do you need a PS3 and a PSP? Or just one of the two? I have a PSP, and I'm interested in purchasing some of the game downloads, but I'm not sure if it would work, since I don't have a PS3. Not sure if this is an appropriate place to post this, but I needed to ask it, because parts of the article aren't too clear.
it requires a PS3 and a USB cable to connect your PSP to the PS3, but some says the playstation store will be available for the PSP without the need of a PS3, this is unconfirmed though Cloud668 03:03, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm going to delete this, as is discussing the subject not the article John Hayes 10:38, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

spilt into two sections?

maybe this page should be spilt into two sections, one for PSP and one for PS3 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cloud668 (talk • contribs) 03:01, 30 December 2006 (UTC).

i'm under the impression that all the games are eventually meant to be interchangable and at the least SOME of the games will be, so rather than seperating the list, it would make more sense to add another section to the table which either lists the compatible system as: PSP, PS3 or PSP & PS3. --AlexOvShaolin 06:23, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

that would be a nice idea Cloud668 06:32, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Another column should be added to clarify the game's current console. --LoneStranger 17:08, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I split the article into two sections, see below. --Cmsjustin 19:54, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

original platform

i set the original platform for a PlayStation Network for all games released exclusively via PlayStation Network since they are not only playable on the PS3 but will work with PSP as well. --AlexOvShaolin 05:45, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

---Um Why do some of the games like 1942 say there original platform was the NES. Thats like saying FFXIII original platform was the NES. 1942 is a 1080p remake it never did no could it play on an 8-bit platform. If your looking for a series origin column I think that is kind of misleading. We have a few games on the PSN like qbert that are not remakes they could say they were from other platforms but Super Stardust HD and Stardust are not even close to the same game. If some one reads this that edits the page please consider changing it.(74.183.38.88 (talk) 03:23, 15 July 2008 (UTC))

I agree with you. I have renamed the column 'Series Origin' but it is still not clear and it can't be made clearer due to lack of space. I think it may be worth putting games like Qbert in it's own table win an 'Original Platform' column, leaving PS3 original titles there and removing the column from that table.

Changes in version 111894754

I did my best to cleanup this article and move it to the sorted lists. There was an edit conflict, and I did my best to include those changes also, but if I missed something I apologize. Here's the diff also: [1]

• Switched to sorted lists
• PSone titles have been moved to a second list. They should be kept there unless the ability to play them on the PS3 is released.
• Fixed original platforms for most games, switch to using PlayStation 3 instead of PlayStation Network for original IPs.
• PSone titles have had the platform column removed for obvious reasons
• Added $5.99 for all PSone titles.
• I removed Mainichi Issyo, it should only be added back in if we add separate columns for US, UK, and JP dates like Chronology of PlayStation 3 games. Also pricing for each would have to be separated.

Suggestions are welcome. --Cmsjustin 19:54, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I think it looks good, I was debated removing the alphbetizing, but what happens when the lists gets too long?Pumapayam 02:21, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

I think that we should remove pricing, for that it varies throughout time, and territory. Release Date of different territories should be combined and the earlist release date should be listed, as currently there are already a few playstation store.Cloud668 21:44, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

This is very confusing. why are there two seperate lists? originally i had the article broken down into seperate lists but it became too hard to navigate, i think it is the same case here. furthermore, as far as games downloaded from the PS3 being dubbed "PlayStation 3 games" this is very inaccurate as they are "PlayStation Network games" unless they were originally released on PS#3discs then ported. you have to remember these games are playable on both the PS3, PSP and future systems. I dont want to give the impression that i am mad about this edit, because sooner or later this article is out of my hands, but i honestly feel these recent edits make it look like shit, non-cohesive, and not well thought out. These edits should have been discussed before being put into effect. Have fun with the article guys, I'm outta here! --AlexOvShaolin 05:09, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

The downloadable games for the PS3 are not playable on the PSP, unless they are the downloadable PSone games for the PSP, which are not playable on the PS3 (yet). They are not the same group of games, and besides being downloadable from the PlayStation Store, they have nothing in common. I don't suggest the lists be merged unless downloadable PSone games become playable on the PS3. —cmsJustin (talk|contribs) 12:54, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Even when that happens, I don't think the PSOne games should be merged with the PS3 games. It makes more sense to me to keep games with a PSOne or PSTwo heritage separate from the games designed for the PS3. Perhaps at the most we'd need a new column stating the PS3 firmware required to play the game. There will invariably be games released that need a newer version of the firmware, especially with the EmotionEngine ripped from the EU and future NA/JP consoles. --LoneStranger 16:22, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

mainichissyo

Another downloadable game that's not listed, Mainichissyo is a downloadable game from the PLayStation Store in Japan http://www.dokodemoissyo.com/mainichi/index.html

the game is japanese only, does this list only have english series? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.255.170.76 (talk) 17:57, 17 March 2007 (UTC).

This list is in English, but that by no means rejects Japanese games. Feel free to add it with references. I do not have enough knowledge on import games to do so. —cmsJustin (talk|contribs) 12:55, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Also we need a Japanese release date column. —cmsJustin (talk|contribs) 12:56, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

I once has the game added, but due to a certain update of this page it's somehow removed due to that somehow there isn't a japanese release date column in this page. --Cloud668 04:55, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

LittleBigPlanet

I'm confused why LittleBigPlanet is on the list. It's going to be a retail title. Sure you will be able to download a version of it in fall, but sticking it on this list I think is misleading.--SoundOfLight 21:09, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

It will be released only as a download initially (Both the demo and the full version). A following Blu Ray release will have the "Best-of" levels with user content available for a product release. Pumapayam 17:16, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Request for EU prices

I just added a column for EU prices. Can someone from the other side of the pond fill them in? —cmsJustin (talk|contribs) 21:23, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Prices are not encyclopedic information. It is not Wikipedia's role to constantly update prices and provide a price comparison service. I've removed the prices from the article. Carcharoth 12:00, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

Request for sizes

Hi guys. Would it be possible if somebody could put the download size of the games available? I would, but i'm still learning my way around my PS3 :-D Alpha Five 09:24, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

If you can find a source for it John Hayes 10:35, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

Someone who has downloaded them can add them, would be a lot of help to many people Phil Mott 21:11, 16 February 2008 (GMT)

Snakeball

I added Snakeball from [2] if anyone can find any more info that would be great as it doesn't mention a developer, a price, or which region it is released in when (it just says July) John Hayes 13:45, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

I can't give any exact details, but Snakeball is still not finished and there's some performance issues left to be resolved. This means that it will take some time before the game is released, but it's getting closer. Price will be about £5 / $10. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.203.248.12 (talk) 13:51, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Questions about release dates

Nucleus
Hi, I've noticed the game Nucleus on the EU store today but can't find a reference about it's release. Can the date for EU be adapted or should I keep searching for a decent source? --Stef Nighthawk 20:03, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

talisman original platform

someone had this listed as Boardgame, i understand that it was based off a boardgame but there is no software written for boardgames so that is not the softwares original release platform. it would be the equivalent of saying RE5's original platform is PS1 because all the RE games were based on the first one. --AlexOvShaolin 02:07, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Are Medievil, Crash Bandicoot 2 and Spyro 2 really gone?

Found this http://www.gamesinfobase.com/source.php?t=Refunds_for_broken_PS1_games_on_their_way&id=63383&ext Are they really gone from PSN? It should be noted on this list that they were removed if they are really gone. -- Akadewboy 05:22, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

I added "removed from PSN" Under crash2 and spyro2's euro release dates. Medievil is still there (in the europe store at least)--Darkdoom3000 (talk) 09:51, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Denzelio (talk) 19:06, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Can we list the Japanese PSOne games in the PSOne download section?

Man, the Japanese version of the Store has got more PSOne games than the US and UK. Our versions of the Store are utter shite. All we've got in the PSOne section are games we don't care about while the Japanese version of the store has TONS and I mean TONS of great PSOne games we're NEVER going to get. It's quite obvious that Sony hates us. The Lucky swine!

：I have a feeling that it's due to the difference of how ESRB(US), BBFC(UK), PEGI(Euro), and CERO(Japan) operate. I think CERO is letting old games be released with simply adding the updated rating labeling provided that games are unchanged from the original release. Otherwise, it's hard to explain how many games that weren't popular and quite unlikely to make a lot of money to be released. Others are likely demanding an actual re-evaluation regardless of whether the game is same or not if the platform is changed. --Revth (talk) 02:33, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Japan PSN Games List Needs to be Updated

Remote Play?

I'm considering adding a column indicating whether or not a PSN game is compatible with PSP Remote Play. So far I think there is only PixelJunk Eden & Monsters, Bionic Commando Rearmed, and High Stakes Poker that support it but there should be more in the future.

Any thoughts?

Robotsbuildrobots (talk) 10:06, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

We recently had a bit of an overhaul on the PlayStation games lists, the main thing was removing a Distributor column. This was because the table was just too wide and was hard to read on smaller monitors. I don't really think there's room to add another column. Having said that, I was thinking the other day that it would be good to have a column showing whether the game was compatible with in-game music via the XMB. Maybe a 'Comparison of PlayStation Network games' features' or something to show all this stuff (and move Trophies to that list as well). Although I'm not sure if it's such a good idea. It might be questionable whether it's necessary to have all this information in a table when it is already available in the games' articles. What to people think? ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 10:37, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Useless series origin column

The series origin column takes precious space away from an already crammed table; this information is not important data and should be covered in the articles themselves. A lot of these series debuted on the PSN, making this column mostly redundant anyway. I propose that it be removed. Garrett^Talk 00:11, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

I agree, I find it useless too and not very accurate. Akadewboy (talk) 22:45, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Suggested name change

I suggest changing the name of this article to List of downloadable PlayStation games. Games such as Wipeout HD, Burnout Paradise, Warhawk and Quest for Booty are not low-budget PSN games as such but are full retail games which have been made available for download via the PlayStation Store. Along with the article, I also suggest changing the name of the lists to PlayStation Netowork games, PlayStation Eye games, PlayStation 3 games (new one containing the games mentioned above) and PSP games. As this is quite a major change I thought I would mention it here first. Anyone have any objections? ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 09:11, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

As there were no comments, I have now made this change. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 11:59, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I don't really understand the new categories, and the distinction between PSN games and PS3 games seems pretty arbitrary to me. I can see the logic in separating Burnout/Warhawk/GT5P from the rest, as they were clearly retail games that were also offered for download, and if that's the case we should also move SOCOM and NFL Head Coach. But then Wipeout doesn't fit into this category, being a (cheap) PSN exclusive, and the only reason I can think of for putting it in the full-games table is that it has a platinum trophy. Quest for Booty is a very short game and is priced similarly to most PSN titles, and presumably is only in the full games table on the basis of it getting a Blu-ray release in some regions, but if that's the case then surely Siren should go in there as well. It just all seems a bit inconsistent at the moment, and to an outsider (i.e. somebody who doesn't obsess over these things as much as we do), there is no clear guidance on how to determine which table is appropriate for a particular game.

Personally I think the whole page would be better as just two tables, downloadable PS3 games and downloadable PSP games, with a column added to each to indicate whether a game also had a disc release. However seeing as nobody else has expressed dissatisfaction with the new layout then I'm happy to leave it for now and we'll see how it develops.Robotsbuildrobots (talk) 15:43, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I agree. It's difficult to establish exactly where some games should go. I was unsure about Wipeout myself. As you guessed, it was based on the fact that it has platinum trophy and that it is treated as a "proper" game rather than a small PSN release. As for SOCOM, NFL Head Coach and Siren, from the sounds of it they should also be in the PS3 games list. The only reason I didn't do it is because I don't have much knowledge of these games. I'll change it later, unless you do. I don't claim that this new layout is perfect, but I think it's better than it was. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 16:08, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

No probs. I'll move SOCOM, NFL Head Coach and Siren to the full games list. I think the price of Quest for Booty means it should probably be under PSN, but I'll leave it as a full game for now on the basis that it has had a Blu-ray release. Wipeout is the most problematic, I guess we'll just leave it where it is for now. It would be nice if Sony would clarify what conditions allow a game to offer a platinum as I think this would help us here, but there's probably not much chance of that happening. Robotsbuildrobots (talk) 21:11, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I don't understand why you guys changed the name of the article, "List of downloadable PlayStation games" makes it sound like it's a list for PS1 games... "List of PlayStation Network games" made more sense to me. I suggest the article title get changed back. Take a look at the PSP section. Notice how there's two tables? (UMD Legacy and PSN Exclusives). You could name your PS3 tables like that. (Downloadable Retail PS3 games and PSN-Exclusive PS3 games) Akadewboy (talk) 20:43, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

I disagree. PSP games and games like Burnout aren't PSN games. The PlayStation ubrella covers PSP, PS3 and PSN games. I don't really think it would cause much confusion. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 23:10, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Combine release dates into a single column?

I think the "First released" column is a bit useless, really. Wouldn't it simply be easier to have one "Release Date" column, then in each cell, list the release dates (With their regions' respective flags in front) chronologically? That eliminates three columns outright. I'm almost surprised this hasn't been discussed yet. xbskid (talk) 20:22, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

The purpose of the seperate columns is so that they can be ordered to provide a chronological list. This seems to be a standard for most lists of this type. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 23:18, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

I guess that makes sense. I tend to look at things globally, so the thought that anyone would want a chronological list for a specific region didn't cross my mind. xbskid (talk) 05:01, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Trophies are mandatory from Jan 2009

Couldn't find a more direct source such as a press release from Sony but this is the best I could find. http://www.videogamer.com/news/ps3_trophies_to_be_mandatory_from_january_2009.html

Therefore all confirmed unreleased games should have "YES" under Trophy support column which is currently called Trophies (confirmed). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.236.128.96 (talk) 17:26, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Bulk citations

I notice there's a big lack of citations for a lot of the games in the article. Anyone have any problems with using basic inline citations next to the game name (→)as is done on List of PlayStation 3 games? Most use the game's page on sites such as 1UP, GameSpot or IGN. I was going to go ahead and add them but I thought it might be seen as showing a bias/advertising for a particular site. Does it matter which one is used? Chimpanzee - User | Talk | Contribs 10:48, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

First Released

When sorting by date of first release, it is doing it alphabeta region instead of by actual date. Can someone fix this? I did but i had to revert because there was a huge problem with the previous edit that i didn't know how to fix and i don't really want to do it all again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.57.236.25 (talk) 06:38, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Flag removal broke column sorting

I have reverted back to the previous flag format. Changing it to EU, NA, JP broke column sorting. We will have to find another method of removing the flags and allowing sorting by date. Maybe a bot to replace the flags with EU/NA/JP and move the hidden spans to the beginning of the cell? Chimpanzee - User | Talk | Contribs 18:55, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

the flag is usage is in violation of policy WP:VG/GL#Release dates, so whatever has to be done for fixing the sorting should be done quickly.

Also keep in the mind that the flag usage is non-NPOV. It uses the US flag symbolize all of North America and it uses the Australian flag to symbolize Australasia (which include New Zealand). My opinion is that correct flag usage and trumps sortability (not to mention that the flag usage is inappropriate)

Also, I don't see how it broke sortability? I looked at the old version, and that column sorted perfectly fine Thegreyanomaly (talk) 22:43, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

---

BTW now i think i get what you are saying, you mean sortability by date, if we move the region codes to after the date, that would work, though we would have to do that manually. Thegreyanomaly (talk) 22:47, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

I think it's more important to maintain the function of the page. I agree they need to be removed but it's not vital that it's done immediately. After being on there for months I don't think it's going to kill anyone if they're there for a couple more days. A bot could be set-up to change them so that the hidden <span>, was first, then the region code, then the full date. I don't have any experience with bots though. Anyone have any ideas? As an aside, WP:NPOV normally relates to an aritcle's tone. Saying "these PlayStation games are amazing". for example, would be against NPOV. I don't see how flag use has anything to do with POV.

User Xeno seems to know about bots. I've asked him/her to take a look at this discussion and see if he/she has any suggestions. Chimpanzee - User | Talk | Contribs 22:57, 17 July 2009 (UTC)

It is POV in that it is incorrectly using the US flag to represent all of North America and it is uses the Australian flag to represent both Australia and New Zealand. That is why it is POV, not to mention politically-incorrect. BTW it seems I was unclear in my second comment (now separated from my first with a line). After noticing such, I failed to indicate that I now understand your point and have no intent on reverting your edit.

• WP:MOSFLAG seems to indicate these flags ought not be used. I agree. For example, the U.S. flag is inaccurate, unless the release date is distinct from Canada. In this case, "NA" should be used. –xeno^talk 17:00, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Request to create new article for downloadable PSP titles

Hello.

As some of the people who read and edit this article may have noticed, in the past few months the number of PlayStation Portable titles available for download on the PlayStation Network has begun to drastically increase. Akin to how we originally treated PSOne titles on this article, I believe with the surge of PSP titles to download now and those oncoming with the release of PSP GO, we should separate the PSP title list from the article itself to prepare for the larger numbers of titles.

In the month of August alone, 23 new PSP titles in Japan have been released so far. A total of 40 PSP titles have gone live on Japan's PSN since the announcement of PSP GO. This is at a rate far faster than the growth of their PSOne Game Archives program. The PSP GO itself will bring a slew of new downloadable titles on October 1st, which will undoubtedly swell the number of titles in North America and Europe. I believe that at this rate, we will indeed see another PSOne situation where we'll need a new article.Valery Faye (talk) 20:49, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

I totally agree. The article has become massive, over 100KB, and the PSP games should get their own page. However I'm not sure what to do with the PC Engine list since they are playable on both PSP and PS3. It's such a short list, should we put it on it's own page too?

Loads of new PSP games on store

Loads of PSP games releasing on the European and US store today. I don't have time to update this right now but if anyone else does, please do. Chimpanzee - User | Talk | Contribs 10:33, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

I've done the EU update, apart from the PSP Minis (see below) Robotsbuildrobots (talk) 15:41, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

PSP Minis

I suggest we add a new category for Minis. It's a significant addition so I thought I would post a note here first. Though maybe the page is getting unwieldy and it's time to split the PSP games into a new article (as discussed above). Robotsbuildrobots (talk) 15:41, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

PS2 Games

I have not read anything about PS2 games. I recently had a theft in my home where a number of my PS2 games were taken. I have searched the city in which I live to replace some of the games. Is there somewhere, where I can re-purchase PS2 games? Or are they now obsolete? Currently, all I find in local stores are a very limited selection of PS2 games. I realize this is a PS3, PSP, and PS1 community... However, I am hopeful that you can provide some insight.

Category Needed:'Nintendo Games on Playstation Store' or Link to full list

There are at least 4 games that do not fit into any of these other categories, which were originally on nintendo, Mega Mans 1-4. Making this page incomplete. There is also this 'Master List'. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:PlayStation_Network_games Which has every game. I believe this link should also be present on this page. At any rate, people need a way to be able to find the mega man series on the PlayStation store from this page, since it currently omits games sold on the network. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jon Bonium (talk • contribs) 07:52, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

Need a list of arcade, Genesis and SMS titles

I've stumbled across a few, but the PS Store lacks and categories for these titles. As far as emulated Genesis games are concerned, I've found Altered Beast, Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2, Super Hang-on and Revenge of Shinobi. For SMS, there's Alex Kidd. (and possibly other titles, but I haven't seen much SMS content overall) These are all available in North America.

As someone mentioned earlier on this talk page, there's also a selection of emulated arcade titles, such as classic Gauntlet. Some of these titles are part of collections that are distributed in physical copies as well. For instance, there's Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, which contains both of the Sonic games already found on the PS Store. The only difference here is that the PS Store versions have added trophy support. (for each individual game) 98.86.119.137 (talk) 17:48, 1 June 2013 (UTC)

Apparently, one must have an account to do just about anything on Wikipedia, despite the claim that anyone can contribute. I tried to create new articles corresponding to other releases found on PSN, but it's too many hoops to jump through. Just forget it. 98.86.117.247 (talk) 22:02, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
