As most may know, Warhawk is coming out as a blu-ray or download. If I purchase the downloadable version and my PS3 stops working (i know it never does, but just in case) will I be able to play the game after I get a new one? Or would I be out of my 40 bucks? Thanks for any response!

Yep, you just sign into your old PSN account [The one you downloaded Warhawk from] and download the game again onto your new ps3 for free.
But you only get 5 re-downloads.

Um...you only get 5 re-downloads? According to what?

Game Informer says I can redownload anything I've previously purchased for free.

If you mean by any profile on your PS3 then yes I believe so. Don't see why you wouldn't be able too.

Not if it's on your hard drive.

no, you can play it under any PSN ID once it is downloaded and installed on your system, but if you tried to download it again with a different ID you would have to pay again.

you can still play with other PSN acounts, but you can only download the game from the account you originally bought the game

You can play on any profile on the ps3.
But the account with that PSN Id for the download of Warhawk has to be on the ps3.

Um...you only get 5 re-downloads? According to what?

Is that per game or total?

If you had six download-only games on your hard drive and wipe it, do you only get five or is that all six for four more times?

That's not true, I've downloaded flOw much more than 5 times.

FYI there's a limit of 5 transfers to PSP's for PS1 games that you download, maybe you're confusing that with all downloads.
