inFAMOUS Downloading Concern?

So yesterday my Dad and I set up our brand new PlayStation3, and luckily I already had a PSN account from a previous PS3 (which a friend gave to me for free after he partially damaged it), so luckily for me I was applicable for Sony's "Welcome Back Package" that they've offered as compensation for the PlayStation network blackout that happened recently. So, after some initial troubles logging in, I was able to get into the store on my old account and download my two free PS3 games (LittleBigPlanet, and Namely, inFAMOUS).

Now here's where things get a bit strange. After selecting inFAMOUS and LittleBigPlanet, I exited the store, went back to the home menu, and went to Download Management. It showed 1 download for Little Big Planet. But for some reason It showed TWO downloads for inFAMOUS.

The second download of Infamous didn't seem to be downloading that much at all, like it was paused, so I just assumed it was a seperate component to the whole download of the game. We left it running overnight. I just checked the Downloads again.

The first download of inFAMOUS had reached 99% and read "Pending"

The second download read 24%

It's like the Second part only started downloading once the First one had reached as far as 99%. Also I should note that the Second Download is just as big in file size as the First one (over 7000 mb).

I'm sure other PS3 users have tried downloading inFAMOUS for the Welcome Back Package. Is this happening to you too? If anyone could give me any sort of explanation or advice, I'd greatly appreciate it.

  • It is probably just a bug or something. It would seem the game is downloading twice, and i see no reason it needs to download 2 parts. I would say, if you can't get around it, to delete one of the downloads and see if the other one would finish.
