Creating a folder on PS3 to sort games?

[Perfect*Ending]

Is it possible to create a folder on the PS3 to sort games by games owned vs. game demos?

My demos and games owned are mixed, and it's a mess!

Hit triangle on a game. Go to Information. Name the Album. After that Hit square the the cross bar and it will show your folders.

I did not know that. Thank you.

The only unfortunate part of the process is you have to change the album on every game that you'd like to sort, which is time consuming at first.

It's definitely one of the times you want to hook up the USB keyboard for a little while. It's still not quick by any means, but faster than the controller.

Thank you. I will use a USB keyboard as mentioned above as well.

You don't really need a keyboard since the predictive text will remember the titles you used and let you quick select them once you pick the first letter.

I'd be happy if they let you sort by alphabetical order in the default folders.

Pretty much this, its the option I always thought should be there but never was.

I found this out, right away, and was glad that I could organize my game collection. I have the folders set to genre/style and then I have it so that the recently played show up at the top in each folder. Really convenient feature.

I still can't believe you can't sort alphabetically. Its entirely inexcusable and obnoxious.

You can save time by just using 1 letter for the album til you get all the games you want in there. Then just change the album name.

Thank you for this thread, as a new PS3 owner it was annoying having everything mixed up.

Agreed, its almost stupid not to have this option.

Is there a way to just make the most recently played digital game appear at the top of the list? I'm tired of scrolling past 8 million PSX games every time I want to start FF14.

You could put it in a separate album, maybe name it FF14 (pressing square is fast way to swap from album/type/none sorting options)
