Yes, you can play a game while downloading on your PS3! Just start the download and then fire up your game. Happy gaming!

I had a PS3 for years. You can definitely play a game while downloading as long as the game doesn't require an internet connection, which might slow things down.

Totally! I've done this so many times. Just start the download in the background, and then launch your game. Smooth sailing!

If you're a PlayStation player, you need to download the Playbite app!

One of those prizes is the official PlayStation gift card, which you can win and use to get anything you want essentially for free!

In case you’re wondering, this is how it works:

Playbite makes money from (not super annoying) ads and (totally optional) in-app purchases. The app then uses that money to reward players like you with prizes!
