Well now you can't do that. If you download multiple things from the PS Store and then play a game the downloads pause until you stop playing. Now this is quite slow and really makes no sense."
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
I don't ever recall multiple downloads on PS3... unless you downloaded one in the background and left one downloading while on the store..
you can choose what to download first by pausing the one that started first and the other automatically goes from pending to downloading
I never really noticed that. I know that XBL Silver is great for multitasking downloads though.
It is a shame about downloading on PSN, but it's not really that bad.
There was a time, I can't remember before which update where if you set four things to download in the background, they would all start downloading at different rates but all at the same time and they didn't stop just because you started playing a game, I mean who wants to chose between playing a game and downloading one?
rotflmylolz psn already has really slow download speeds now you wanna download multiple demos Simultaneously
