Pre-Order MLB 13 The Show From PSN Store & Download at 12:01 AM EST, March 5th

Does anyone know if the live roster update will be available for download at midnight?

This isn't a tremendously big deal as I usually do my own up to date rosters, but it would be nice to download it and save some time.

I did this with Madden last year and it said 12:01est and I'm central but the store did not update till 12:01pst for me to DL and that was 2:01am for me. I just wanted to say Sony is on the west cost so that might happen again.

Anyone help me?

I am hoping my console won't run so hard if I get the download as opposed to the disc. I'm not selling the game anyway so I don't need a physical copy to dump.

Tempted to do this but with DSL, I think this would take a full day to download. I'd worry about my PS3 burning out running that long.

Maybe I'll just DL the Vita version when it hits the store.

I have decided to just buy the game tomorrow. Giving up hopes of starting my franchise tonight

Well, just bit the bullet and preordered the digital download. Was shocked that I was not charged any tax. Ive bought stuff from psn before and always paid the 13% HST here in ontario. Wonder why the ps store stopped charging tax. Oh well not going to complain just saved myself another $7.80 I would have paid in taxes at eb games. Also traded in mlb 12 and got $10 in store credit at future shop today. C'mon midnight only 1.5 hours away.

I found the game early on Friday. Gonna do the digital download tonight and sell the disc. Should I delete the original install?

Yeah, otherwise you're just going to have 5 - 10 GB that aren't doing anything. I would assume that there's not going to be any kind of additional game data install for the digital version seeing you're downloading the entire contents of the disc.
