PS3 vs Xbox 360: Which console has the best download manager?

Tom at El33tonline writes:

"I recently upgraded my internet connection from a 15GB monthly data cap with a local mobile provider to an uncapped account over a landline which gave me the opportunity to really put the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 through their paces in terms of downloads. Having spent a ton of time over the last week with each console’s respective download managers, I’ve reached some interesting conclusions which should make for entertaining reading."

HOW TO DOWNLOAD PATCHES IN THE BACKGROUND:

Not many people know this, i'm doing it right now with HOME and KIllzone 3 patches.

1. MUST HAVE PS PLUS
2. SET Auto download to a closer time
3. Turn PS3 OFf without downloading the game patch yet (Make sure you launch it first but don't download)
4. PS3 turns on and begins downloading
5. Interupt auto download

6. Success the patch is being downloaded while you can browse everything else like normal.

I found this a while ago when i accidently interupted auto download to find GT5 patch there. Its really useful if you don't want to wait for the patch to download.

love the ps3 hate the xbox but imo xbox gets the points

download and installs at the same time
where as the ps3 downloads then installs
patches on 360 are a few 2nds on the ps3 sometimes it kills me as i just wonna play the game =(
ps3 still rules though :p

First mistake dont by broadband from bile phone company
Second mistake dont asume ps3 patches are 100mbs or more cos depends what updates and as a ps3 gamer from start there often updates around 40ish mb's

The score for the first Plants Vs Zombies is such great, iconic music that it has a timeless quality. Not quite the level of Minecraft, but wonderful in its own right.
