Hey guys. So I have a playstation 3, at 2 different locations. Currently, only one of them has FF:ARR installed. Just wondering how i can play ARR at both of them. Do i need to purchase another ps3 copy?
Thank you.
How do I link my account to multiple playstation 3's?

Don't think you can install the same license on two machines... seem to recall they get locked to the unit once registered. Or maybe it was your PSN account. Forget the details.
If each console has a copy installed though (like, for another player), you may be able to sign in as a guest on your account though like we can on the PC version. Not sure though... PSN accounts come into play with the console versions, so it gets a bit funky. -
