My brother and I share the same PS3. He was able to re-enter his password on the console whereas I asked for an email notification and I haven't received a reply. I tried resending it but then it said 'server error'. Any ideas guys? :)

Nothing you can do about it really, I got nothing after 24 hours so I resent my request via my console but still nothing. Its a total farce really and Sony P.R could not get any worse at this rate.

Well just saw what possible games will be given out. I have all of them except Puruist Force for the psp. I got both psp and ps3, and ps+. This is nothing new or good for people. Realllly upsetting. Guess all i got out of this whole thing was a month of offline play

I'm thinking about Stardust HD and Wipeout HD. I might pick Dead Nation over Wipeout though.

Id recommend to pick both Dead Nation and Wipeout HD over Stardust, they are just more complete and will give you much more gameplay. (Besides, they cost more, so get them for free :P)

I will just pick Stardust because i already have the others (my cousin has Stardust, so i know that the other 2 will be a better choice overall :P) and InFAMOUS because i dont have it.

Just my 2 cents, because in the end... they are free. :P

Quick word of warning regarding Stardust HD. The original game package doesn't offer a whole lot of modes, so you'll have to pick up the DLC add-ons to flesh out the game more. Still a fun game without the extra modes, though they certainly extend its longevity.

Yeah, and we can get the discount from PSN plus while we have it (probably), on the items that are affected.

I think i saw a few things on the store that catched my attetion that had a discount, or where free for +.

Pick inFamous! It's a great game and it's worth more than Wipeout.

Yeah, thats the thing...

Still, InFAMOUS is deffinetly in for now. (Wipeout HD/Fury and Dead Nation and LBP i already have) ...so it leaves me little choice isnt it? :P

Maybe there is a discount for the expansion for Stardust with PSN+? XD

I know -- I played it last year. Great game, indeed. That's why I'm thinking of trying Wipeout; get something new for a change. That said, I'm kinda leaning toward inFamous.

[QUOTE="Xx-Addict-xX"]EDIT: When is store back up? Has a date been set besides the old ' few days away'?c_rake

By the end of the month. Hopefully there will be some good stuff coming outside the Package in the multiple Store publishes. I knew that most of these games would be 1st/2nd party games. That part is disappointing. What's even more disappointing is that I've played, didn't like (mostly because I never got around to playing them), and traded in are the legacy (BD games made downloadable) games inFAMOUS and LBP. I will be getting WipeOut HD + Fury (I'm assuming this is a package) and...probably Super Stardust HD (not a big fan of L4D so I probably wouldn't like Dead Nations anyway.) on the PS3. On the PSP, the only two games worthy of my download are ModNation and LBP (which I will play more since I play the PSP more often). KZ Liberation isn't that good of a game IMO, and Pursuit Force is...well, I'll be getting that fix on the PS3. Of course all of that could change. I just wish more 3rd parties could've pitched in...or at least let Kratos (GoW - I only said that so people won't get him mixed up with the Tales of Symphonia character of the same name) tear up my PSP.

Here's the link: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2011/05/16/details-for-playstation-network-and-qriocity-customer-appreciation-program-in-north-america/ It says the free* games CAN be kept forever. Does that mean we gotta get the subscription or that it's free no strings attached?

Dang I was expecting a couple of cheap arcade games and maybe some free themes. This pretty much makes up for the outage for me.

I don't know if anyone else mentioned this (I didn't read pages back at all) but do any of you think that Sony should only be offering games that came out during the outage? I think Outland, Gatling Gears, and other games that would have been released should be what they are offering us, just to make sure that none of us own them yet.
Like many of you I own all the games they are offering because they are old.

Do we just get those games? Or do we have to have systems registered or something? 'Cause it says "For PSP owners" and I don't think I've ever connected my PSP to PSN.

All right guys I have a issue with PSN

I created my email address on the PS3 itself and now PSN has sent the details to get my password reset to that email, but the email was made on the PS3, so how do I get the message if there is no where to get it :P

I'm confused by this :(

Already own Infamous, don't care much for Little Big Planet and zombies in general. Would like to try out Wipeout HD and I'm not really sure or know much about super stardust. I guess I know which two games I'm probably going to end up getting. :P

Brilliant idea. Because they don't want to earn any money with those games at all, right? I think everybody should just get a PS4 for free. Nobody already has those.

To all the people complaining that you already have all those games, well...they can only gives us exclusive sony games, and they sure as hell aren't gonna be uncharted 2 or killzone 3, and even if they did you would still complain because you probably have those as well...they are offering far more than they should or than we expected.

So, was there a massive amount of people who couldn't wait that extra day to get their email and just created new psn accounts? I played mw2 for a couple hours today and about 70% of the players were between level 1-15...

I think it's safe to say that he can. Considering that he's, well... posting on an internet forum. Perhaps he's just not in the mood to check his mails from his computer.

I don't think you realize that Sony is going to be subsidizing those companies for lost profits. These companies are not doing this out of the goodness of their hearts, Sony must have gone to them and said "Hey, we need to give something to PSN users, we will give you this much money if you will release this game for free for this many days, or we will pay you for every download your game gets." Nice sarcasm by the way, but think about your argument before you make it.
