Re: MLB 14 The Show Digital PS4 pre-order

When clicking add to cart, it says: "Please go to the PS Store on PS4 at any time after 12:01am EST on May 6 to download your game."

So I cant download it now and on the 6th it will just be ready to play? What is the point in pre ordering a digital release then if I cant preload the game?

Pre loading games isn't available yet, it's something Sony said their trying to get done for this month. (So in a way, you will be able to pre load this).

Digital games are different. On PSN you have to technically add funds to the account and then buy the game.

When you preoder it'll ask you if you want to add $59.99 to your funds and buy the game.

When I preordered MLB 14 on PS3 (and any other game) it shows as a normal product purchase, but the product is a preorder. Same for Steam and other digital preorders. Then when the game is available the system makes the retail version free on your account, so you then make a 2nd purchase for $0.00 which is the game.

I believe you can cancel a preorder by calling Sony, I've heard of people doing that. But once the game is released you cannot get a refund.

They could at least add a pre order bonus like they did last year.

I know how I am using my PSN cards now!!! Finally get to own The Show after being stuck with MLB 2K on Xbox 360 for the last six years. Really stoked!

Would anybody have an estimated download size for the PS4 version?

Maybe by comparing with another downloaded PS4 game??? I don't know if that would be a good comparison, but it would give me an idea of what to expect.

The PS3 version was about 23 GB....not bad, it took about 4 hours to download, but it used up a lot of my monthly internet allowance. The days of unlimited internet are gone....at least where I live.
