  • L.A Noire Tops June 2011 Software Sales According To NPD

    L.A Noire kept its throne for the second time in a row by topping the software sales in June according to NPD. Duke Nukem was second while Infamous 2 finished with a 3rd position despite being on a single platform.

    While L.A Noire and Duke Nukem were released on multiple platforms, Infamous 2 was released on PS3 only which made its sales more important than both of the games. According to Sony, Infamous 2 was the single best selling SKU of the month. The combined sales of all platforms for L.A Noire and Duke Nukem helped them claim the top 2 spots easily.

    NPD results also showed the sales of Microsoft Xbox 360 which were twice as many as all current generation platform sales. The Xbox 360 sold about 507,000 units during June 2011.

  • How To: Download And Install PS3 Games Patches, Updates, Demos ETC Using Your PC

    Most of you probably don’t have super fast Internet connections and have trouble downloading from PSN, which often gives very slow download speeds as it fails to completely utilize your bandwidth. Use the following guide to download stuff from PSN onto your PC at blazing fast rates and then transferring them to your PC.

    The thing you will be needing are as follows:

    • A PlayStation 3 (model doesn’t matter)
    • A PC running Windows.
    • A modem or router to make a network between the PC and PS3.
    • PS3 Proxy Server GUI (download links at the bottom)

     

    Lets get started.

    1. Download and install PS3 Proxy Server GUI on your PC, you need to have Microsoft’s .NET Framework 1.1 installed. Do note a newer version won’t be any help, you need 1.1 to make it work.
    2. After installing go to the Program Folder since the program doesn’t make a desktop icon, then go into the folder called “CF3B5″
    3. Click on the PS3 Proxy Server GUI application icon which will open the program.
    4. Find out the IP of your computer (local IP)
    5. Write down the IP into the IP Address section in the PS3 Proxy Server GUI program, leave the ports option as 8080.
    6. Click start.
    7. Now onto the PS3, create a new custom Internet connection.
    8. Select yes and type out the Proxy server when asked to, enter than same IP as you typed in the PS3 Proxy Server GUI. Again leaves the ports as 8080.
    9. Now after all of that is done navigate to the PlayStation store or start a game to download the patch you want.
    10. Stop it after the download has started.
    11. Now back to your PC, click the logs tab in PS3 Proxy Server GUI.
    12. Copy the first link and paste it into your download manager, I use IDM so I just had to click on add URL and then ok.
    13. When the file is downloaded click on the replace tab, then click on add.
    14. Paste the link of the file you downloaded in the left bar and paste the location of the file you download into the right bar.
    15. Now go back to the PS3 and download the file again, this time it should download much faster as it’s now downloading for the proxy server i.e your PC.
