How To Download Playstation Games

Ever since the release of Sony's PlayStation 3, the older PlayStation 2 system has been slowly sinking into obsolescence. Consequently, there are fewer PS2 games on the market. Gamers needing a replacement for their favorite games may discover no copies are available. Fortunately, several websites offer PS2 game files–called 'ISOs'–for download onto the computer. This allows PS2 owners looking for a quick backup of their games to download and burn the files to a DVD. Best of all, these sites are free, and the games are made available by generous gamers from around the world.

Downloading a PS2 ISO

PlayStation Nation; Here's how to download films from Stage6.com to your PS3! Yeah you have to start the download in the web browser but once its on the HDD you can put it on a USB card it.

Open your preferred web browser and navigate to a PS2 game download site of your choice. Since most web sites that offer PS2 games for download are forum-based, you will need to create an account–usually done free of charge–before you can access the downloads.

Access the game downloads section of the web site, then scroll through the various posts until you locate a game you wish to download. Click the link.

Follow the download links provided in the forum post. Most PS2 ISOs have been uploaded to online storage sites like Rapidshare or Megaupload because their large size makes them difficult to store in any other manner.

Follow the instructions provided for you once you reach the online storage site that contains the file you wish to download. You will usually need to enter in a series of numbers and letters to prove you are human, and then wait anywhere from 30 to 60 seconds before a download link will appear.

Click the download link once it has appeared, then specify a location on the hard drive where you wish to save the PS2 ISO file. Once you have everything the way you want it, click 'Save,' and the download will start.

Repeat Steps 3 through 5 as needed. Because most PS2 ISOs are more than four gigabytes in size, you may want to split them into several parts with WinRAR, which makes it easier for them to manage. Once all the files have been downloaded, unzip the ISO file to a desired location on your hard drive. You are now ready to begin burning the PS2 ISO to a disk.

Burning the Game to a Disk

Open your preferred DVD burning program.

Select the option that will allow you to burn an image file to a disk. This will usually be labeled 'Write image file to disk,' but may also be labeled something slightly different depending on your program.

Insert your blank DVD into the computer's DVD burner.

Click the 'browse for file' button under the 'source' section of your DVD burning program, then browse for and select the ISO file you downloaded in Section 1. Click 'Open' to add it to the queue to be burned to the DVD.

Click the 'Burn' button after you have made sure that the 'Destination' is set to the DVD drive containing your blank DVD. Your DVD burning program will now burn the PS2 ISO to the DVD.

If you haven't got a wireless router in your home and you don't have a PS3 that you can use to access the PlayStation Store, you might think you're out of luck as far as downloading content for your PSP from the PlayStation Network. If you do have a PC with an internet connection, you can download games, demos and other content from the PlayStation Store for PC and sync it to your PSP. It's easy. Here are 9 steps to making it happen.

How To Use the PlayStation Store for PC to Download to a PlayStation Portable (PSP): 9 Steps

If you haven't already done so, download and install Sony Media Go for PSP. If you need help, see this tutorial for instructions and tips.
Make sure you have plenty of room for your downloads on your PSP memory stick. Turn on your PSP, plug it into your PC with a USB cable, and activate the USB connection by scrolling to the 'Settings' menu on your PSP and selecting 'USB Connection.'
Make sure your PC is connected to the internet and launch Sony Media Go for PSP.
If this is the first time you've started up Media Go, it will run through the setup process and then take you to the PlayStation Store. If you have run Media Go before, launch it, click on the PlayStation store icon to go to the store.
Navigate the store by clicking on the categories until you find a game, demo, video or other content you wish to download.
Click the 'download' button.
If you have not used the PlayStation Store for PC before, you will need to log in or create an account. (See Tip 1 below.) If you have used the Store before, you'll still need to log in.
Once logged in, you'll probably have to find your item again and click the 'download' button again. (See Tips 2 and 3 below.) Your selected item(s) will then download to your PSP.
When your download is complete, disconnect your PSP and navigate to the new content. Enjoy!

Tips

If you already have a PlayStation Network account set up on your PS3 or PSP, use the same login info when accessing the PlayStation Store for PC; otherwise, follow the instructions to create a new account.
When you click 'download' on an item, you can choose to download it immediately or add it to your cart so that you can select multiple items and then download them all in one go.
When you click to download an item you may be prompted to download an updated version of the PlayStation Network Downloader. Download that and then restart your PC and relaunch Media Go again and click on the PS Store icon to return to the store. Find your download and click 'download' (again!).
You cannot view PlayStation Store content on your PC. It can only be used on your PSP.
You cannot download PlayStation Store items only to your PC. You must have a PSP connected to your PC, with a memory stick in the PSP that has enough free space for your download.
