“I’m selling my old fat PS3 for the newer slimmer version. I’m going to reformat the PS3 so everything will be deleted before I sell it. Can I download the things I already bought from the Playstation Network Store?”
The stuff you bought from the Playstation Store does not have to backed up, but you do need to remember the same login name and password when you sign into the Playstation Network on your new PS3. Once you log into your old account on your new PS3 you can re-download everything you previously bought for the PS Store.
Here’s how to re-download the stuff you already bought:
- Scroll to PlayStation Network
- Go to Sign In, and use your email and password to log in
- Go to Account Management and press X
- Go to Transaction Management and press X
- Go to Download List and press X
- Now a list of all your downloads from the Playstation Store downloaded again

I just realized I was missing a map pack and got a bit frustrated when there was only a “rate” button in the playstation store 😆

don’t buy anything from the playstation store. i had purchased multiple games and when i went back on to play them after a year they are all gone. i did everything listed above. i am now out over 50 dollars on games i can’t ever play again. i will never buy another playstation product, they have scammed me out of my money.

I bought madden 13 about 6 months ago and it isn’t showing up on the download list. I uninstalled it and now I can’t find it to re-install it, it isn’t on the download list. Playstation store only has the buy 59.99 link. Is there any way to recover it? Thanks.

Same with me, I’m lucky it’s only a few $2 costumes in DOA5 Last Round, but still, it’s annoying
