I am currently toying with the idea of buying a PS3 160Gb in the UK.

My question to you, the PS3 owners with Internet access/anyone from Eidos is whether I could download it legitimately from the PSN - the package I would be going for would be the console, a controller, 3 physical copies of games (including LBP) and 4 full games downloadable from the PSN.

Any advice regarding such things on the PS3 would be genuinely appreciated - I am not up for discussion with respect to the platform - my PC would take far too much money to upgrade and I am not prepared to line the pockets of Bill Gates with my hard-earned cash.

What is a PSN? Are the people who own a PS3 going to be able to download the full version of Underworld to or are we going to be left out?
I don't think that would be fair if they left out the PS3 users because we also had to pay the full price of the game to. $60.00 bucks for US people. That is full price for PS3 games.
Dose any one now the answers to my questions?:confused:
I hope they included PS3 users to. I want the full version of Underworld to. I enjoyed playing it and would like the full version to.:eek:

Tomb Raider Underworld is not available for download on PSN. At least in the US, I don't think it is elsewhere either.

I'm looking at the Playstation UK website (http://uk.playstation.com/games-media/news/articles/detail/item127748/Control-your-entertainment/), and it looks like that package has the download games pre-selected.
They are

Gran Turismo™ 5 Prologue
Ratchet and Clank™: Quest For Booty
The Last Guy
Super Stardust HD


It doesn't look like any Blu-ray games (physical copies) are included either...
If those games don't interest you, the 80 GB model might be a better buy.

That's not the only 160Gb package - I found a shop that does the above package and I am probably going to buy it.

I'll speak to the shop and see what the restrictions Sony put on their package with Curry's...

The PSN is the PlayStation Network - this is basically the Internet through your PS3 where you can view pages on the Web, shop for downloadable games, make friends and chat and play online.

People who own the PS3 can download the full game from PSN at the standard price - if you have already paid $60, why would you want to download and pay for the full game again though?

Also; exclusive DLC is only available on the XBox 360 so no extra levels or costumes for us - not that I care so much - I would prefer to play the game rather than treat her like a doll.
It also looks like the new outfits were added haphazardly - you can select them at any time - which does not make sense really - why would you want to wear a wetsuit or a drysuit in the Jungle?
It would only make your skin wet and keep it wet which is not good for it!!!

edit: apologies for double post.

Dont think you can get the game for download on PSN or Xbox 360 but I'm unable to check the Euro stores at present but I haven't seen any information on it previously.

The only download for TRU is DLC on the Xbox 360 which should be next month as far as I have read.

That looks like a very good deal. At the current exchange rate, that would only get you the 80 GB model + 1 Blu-ray game in the US.

You should check with the store, but my guess is the 4 download games are the same ones I listed above.
