how do you share a dl'd PS3 game?

I heard its possible to share some downloaded PS3 content. So noob question, how the heck do you do it? I have Super Stardust on one PS3 and I want to share it with my other one. The information on the title implies that it can be shared, but I haven't been able to figure out how. I tried finding it on the PSN store as well to maybe just re-download it but it's no longer there. Ideas anyone?
 
I could've sworn you can share with upto 5 other machines. At least I've seen threads on Neogaf, for one, where people discuss sharing DLs. I'm not sure whether that sharing was a workaround or not though.

Warhawk was certainly one that couldn't be shared.
 
You have to log into the PS3 with the same PSN details, go into account managment and download history (I think it's something like that not looked for ages)

You can download it again from there. You cannot share Warhawk, but everything else you can.

Don't delete the account (user account not PSN) you download the game with on the other PS3 as the game won't work.

I sucessfully shared Tekken with my mate so it works, trust me ;)

BTW, sharing of PSN games is encouraged by Sony, they can stop it quite easily (see Warhawk) if they wanted to.
 
Warhawk does indeed allow sharing (I've done it between the home and work PS3s). It just has tighter restrictions (requires PSN authentication, and enforces a 24 hour delay when switching machines)...

And yes the limit for sharing is 5 machines (and 16 accounts per machine).

I hate requiring PSN authentication to boot Warhawk... I take my PS3 to my mom's on the weekends and I would love to be able to play split-screen against my brothers but Internet is not available there... I should have bought the retail copy I guess.
 
i have locoroco cocorecheo, flow, elefunk, pixel junk monsters, all three warhawk expansions, crash team racing for the ps1 and the kratos sackboy costume. Does Anyone have any Guitar Hero World Tour DLC I especially want The Killers track pack But any DLC will do and flower would be good as well, but anyone with DLC has to be from England.
 
A year and 3 months to be fair.

However if you are interested in sharing games I'd wager there are far better sites than B3D to come to.
