Hi Sparkle, sometimes this happens to me too, where the game will automatically begin downloading and installing, and I believe it's because you had already done it before, and recently. It doesn't mean that with a lot of (or most) games you won't still have to do things the other way. You are not confused; it just is what it is. I think if it is a game that you recently played, that sometimes the system recognizes this and things proceed in the normal manner. Most of the time, though, I have to download and install the game the way that you and I have become accustomed.
