Also, for those of you going to bed (like me) before turning off your controller, go to turn off system on the top left of the cross media bar. When you click it, a box will appear that has the option to turn off system after background download. Check this box, then click turn off again. When you wake up in the morning, the system will be off and MLB 13 will be waiting for you under games. (If the download is complete)

Sorry for so many posts, but I'm trying to help people ASAP.

I have a decent connection but to have to wait 2 hours or so to download any game is stupid. No way they can even consider digital only if this is the delivery mechanism. Too slow.

Sounds like things will be different on PS4...supposedly you will be able to start playing a game while it is still downloading...how that would work with a game like the Show I have no idea...

If it was a 22gb download you would need over 44gb to install.
If it was 12 and 11 (rounding up) as it is now you don't need as much, about over 34gb. Hopefully its because Sony is aware of this install issue with large games and as such probably has something to do with games being split up (Ni No Kuni was a similar total size and also split up).
