DanielVT Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Also, what do you mean by CD ROM? The Playstation 3 uses Blu-ray discs, and the PC uses CD ROM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d3m0nd00d Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I have a couple full games purchased from the ps store, but the majority of mine are from disc. You can usually find the disc version cheaper and I cannot for the life of me get my fat 80 GB ps3 to take a bigger HDD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSXtreme_ Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 If your PC is using CD Rom drives...you need an update done to the hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevieboy Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 i buy games on ps store and play from hdd To answer the question, when you buy a game from the PSN store it is downloaded to your PS3's HDD. You then install it and play it from the HDD, no disc of any sort is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but I think the OP was asking if you play your ps3 games from your HDD (download from the ps store) or from a physical disc. You know kinda like the digital vs physical post that keeps emerging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FurryMcMemes Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 For smaller games like Dead Space, under 10GB, I like having them in digital format as digital games tend to perform better than physical games. For huge games like Grand Theft Auto 4 I go disc or if the game runs fine on disc I don't go digital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parker Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I prefer physical copies myself. I'll buy the occasional digital game, only if it's a screamin' deal (like Burnout Paradise and all the DLC for $7) otherwise I like to have cases and manuals.

Artemisthemp Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I pref to run game from HDD, since it diminish the loading times (BTTF is horrible on Disc). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senshu573 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Both. I like my "small" games on my HDD, and my hardcore games on disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A12 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Well since 95% of (Retail) games are still only disk based.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Div_Muzza Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I mostly play games from the disc unless they are PSN exclussive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreakon139 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Physical copies = cheaper 99% of the time. So that one. If all things were equal, I'd prefer the hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Lilith Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 The only full PS3 games I have on PSN (DD) are free ones I've gotten from Plus, and Infamous from Welcome Back. Other than that, my entire PS3 collection is retail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
