I don't know how much fun it is because I have not bothered to download what I thought was in the case already! My son recently bought this game on vacation at a Florida K-Mart. He was disappointed to open the package and find nothing insdie [apparently it's called a UMD]. We had just enough time to attempt an exchange before catching a flight home. We exchanged it for the only other one on the shelf to find an empty package again, which astonished me and the staff, and so we made an entirely different game purchase. Neither we nor the store staff noticed the statement at the top of the package [which I only noticed after a 3rd attempt at obtaining this game from Amazon]'Downloadable Game Voucher' then in tiny print 'No Disc Included. Memory Stick and Access to Playstation Network Required'. One could easily take this as some other kind of voucher with all the marketing constantly thrown at us, and no I don't typically examine every detail of my 11 year old's game purchases except to note an acceptable family rating. I am not technical and born before game boys, Xboxes and PSPs etc. I dare say that most people who physically go into a store to buy a game, expect to walk out with the actual game, not to arrive home only to have no choice but to now 'plug in' and 'create an account' to figure out some kind of download. I am annoyed at Sony. If I was intersted in downloading a game, I would seek it out, or hope to see that option at the time of purchase from an on-line vendor - why have it shipped when you can simply download. I think Sony will mostly annoy parents, because if there's somthing cute about this, I missed it! I think it's also a lot of waste of packaging, time and money!Patapon 2 (Downloadable Game Voucher)
