They will do nothing but use terrible grammar and run-on sentences.

No. You're not paying for PSN, so they don't have to.

lol asking sony for somthing is like asking a robber not to rob your store,

i dont think sony has that type of mentality in their office ,

thier offices is some what like that hotel in home alone 2 where a whole bunch of tech support just let anything fly! even a 8 yr old using their parents credit card rtflol

They might do that, but i think they shouldnt because it would cost them alot to give all 40 mil + users a free game.

There is no way on earth any company is compensating people for a free service being down. As for PSN+ users I could see them pushing their billing date ahead but other than that no.

They should give current PS+ members a free month of PS+ or some bonus like that. Free members deserve nothing more than an apology from Sony.

I remember when this happened on Xbox Live years back, they gave us some underwater XBLA game where you shoot spears. I didn't like it, so much that I won't bother to go boot up my Xbox to look up the title, but it was free and that was cool. Getting free things is nice.

However, XBL is a paid service, and those that got this were Paid Xbox Live Gold members.

I think maybe Paid PS+ owners might get some extra days or a free PSN game, but free PSN users aren't owed anything...sure it would be nice, but I'm not expecting anything.

I don't understand why people feel entitled to anything here. Everyone gets PSN for free so why expect a free game when they come back, PSN+ members already get a bunch of free games, among other things, as part of the service so why expect more free stuff when it comes back. Enjoy games the what they used to be, offline in your mom's basement with a real life friend.

You can always use the argument that one of the biggest selling points of the ps3 was it's free online. So they defiantly have a right to complain when you look at it that way. They definitely should give the psn+ users something for free, but will they? No idea. Everybody else...probably have more chance of seeing the man in the moon.

Something along the lines of:

"We apologize for having to shut down psn in order to hopefully prevent your peers from ruining your experience in the future"?

Well, I didn't like it, and I definitely tried to like it. I remember it used the Unreal Engine, but that doesn't mean I like it based on the engine. I even played it with friends to try and get achievement points way back then. I did okay in that, but overall I definitely tried make the best of that free XBLA game experience that Undertow provided... but I just didn't like the game, mang. :P

I know GS reviewed it, they gave it a 6.5/10. To each their own though.

Glad you liked Undertow, it just wasn't my cup of tea.

They're not that bad. A PSN friend whom I met on Motorostorm Pacific Rift got a free copy of Motorstorm Apocalypse and an all-expense-paid trip to Sydney for the Motorstorm Apocalypse launch event from Sony Australia when they heard he was diagnosed with cancer.

IDK...I mean, they're not entitled to it (no one expects something like this to happen, especially so severe). Personally I think it's rather selfish to demand they hurry up, or offer a free game...I'd rather Sony take their time with it, and make sure something like this never happens again.

They will likely have to, not necessarily out of legal obligation (at least to free users), but for simple goodwill they really need to. Their company name is taking a brutal hit from this fiasco, and they have to do something to help qualm people's anger so that when the next consoles come out they don't lose a ton of their PS3 users to competing systems.

They have already apologised several times on the Playstation Blog. People asking for gifts and compensation are plain stupid, you're not paying for it. Even if you're a PS Plus subcriber you shouldn't be getting any free items, deal with it.

Crazy how expectations differ in situations, my boiler broke down the other month leaving me without heating or hot water. Took the gas company 6 days to sort it. Do i expect free gifts?? No becuase things break sometimes.
