Unless you have Linux installed on your PS3 and they're Linux supporting games you can't.

Sorry

Even if you had a game for the PC with Linux and you put it on your linux capable ps3, you still couldn't. The game for the PC is compiled for x86 processor architectures presumably, not the IBM cell architecture.

IF it's a PS3 game demo though, I'm sure you could do it. If it's made for the PC, that's a no go.

But i found something in internet all say is working:

Sony PS3 Modding - Homebrew, Upgrades, Mods, and Hacks: Download and Install PlayStation Store Games Via PC

That means you can download PlayStation Store games to your PC, instead of doing it through your PS3.

I don't think it works with just any typical PC demo or game.

Hmm... I wouldn't try anything funny on a ps3, maybe I am a paranoic, but If I remember (And read) well, from time to time, when the ps3 is connected to the interwebs it may check what's been used on it... and if it detects weird stuff, you may get something nasty on your way.

A game that runs on the PC WILL NOT run on the PS3. A game demo for the PC is created to run on an x86 compatible chip. The PS3's Cell processor is not x86, hence it can not run the game code.

Anyone who knows anything about compilers or programming knows this.

You may have downloaded a PS3 demo on your computer, transfered it to the PS3, and then played it. However, you did not take a PC game demo, and run it on your PS3. It will not happen. If it does, the game you downloaded has two executables, one for PC architectures and one for PS3 architectures. This is extremely unlikely.
