Ps3 – Do PSN games have some sort of ID number, like a barcode

ps3psn

I was recently building a small section which is basically a collection of video games (along with some books and movies) that I own. I was storing all these items by the UPC or ISBN number associated with it, but this only really works for physical products.

Currently, I'm just not listing PSN games because I don't really have any way to identify them. I was wondering if there were ID numbers such as barcodes for PSN-only games that could be found somewhere, either in the PlayStation store or on their website. For example, is there some sort of ID number for Okabu, which can only be bought and downloaded from the PlayStation Store?

According to this website:

Step 1: Log on to PSN (ON YOUR COMPUTER) for the respective region you wish to find the SKU for(in the US, for example, it's us.playstation.com).

Step 2: After that search for the game you want using the search bar on left side of the screen at the bottom of the buttons. After you have found the page of the game you are looking for, hit control + u to bring up source code of the page.

Step 3: Near the bottom of the source code, you should see something like this:

    <meta name="hasTrailer" content=""/>
    <meta name="gameRating" content="TEEN"/>
    <meta name="partOfGame" content="Prince of Persia® Sands of Time HD"/>

    <meta name="SKU-ID" content="NPUB-30303"/>
    <meta name="last-modified" content="2010-12-27"/>

The second-last line of the source code is the SKU or game id of the game you were looking for (so for instance this would be NPUB30303).
