Hmm, weren't lemmings making a big deal about the 2 weeks they had off of XBL back in 2007 and how they got a free downloadable game? And how they *think* that they have more exclusive games due to XBL?

Well, PS3 owners win again- this time, we get 2 full-fledged RETAIL titles. This is why retail > digital downloads.

I would never use the PSN outage as any sort of ownage.

That's pretty awesome for people who don't own those games...I unfortunately own pretty much all of them except Dead Nation and there is a reason for that :P

^^^ FYI XBL was never completely shut down for those two weeks.lawlessx

It doesn't matter if it was completely down or not- you PAID for that time.

We don't have to pay anything, and we get something free out of it. :D

Cows would. They'd find some way to fool themselves into thinking it was a good thing.

So how exactly is Sony going to give 2 retail games to everyone with a PSN account? They gonna mail them out? 154 million games?

I've played inFAMOUS an LBP. Should I get these two games again (Dont have all the trophies) or should I get something else? Recommend me something!

And all you had to go was give up playing any games online for weeks. 110million

They can be downloaded from the PSN store.

Pretty cool. I bought Infamous, beat it, and sold it, so it's cool I can grab this and play it again.

I guess I'd go with Wipeout, which I've never purchased because I heard it's really difficult. Since I already own SSHD, LBP, and the Ratchet and Clank game though, no other choice really.

It's a nice gesture, but I probably would not have wanted the service to go out in the first place. Or have my identity potentially stolen.

2008 Xbox live=spotty for 2 weeks where some users could get on and others couldn't because of a massive influx of xbox live subscribers a free xbla game *very good one at that* was given.

2011 psn=down near a month, all user data given away like that of a cheap garage sale mishap where a priceless family heirloom was sold for 25 cents, Possibly all credit cards comprimised.....

yeah they are so totally on the same level :roll:

[QUOTE="110million"]And all you had to go was give up playing any games online for weeks. tryagainlater

Infamous and Dead Nation for me! :)

I'l probly get Wipeout and Superstardust

Save it for the MW3!!!

RRTTWAAA

What the heck?This topic isn't about your game.

What if you already had multiple PSN accounts? Can you abuse this freeby? I have a few US accounts and a few different foreign accounts.ConanTheStoner

I'll take InFamous and Dead Nation. However, how big are these downloads? My connection speed is quite slow.

They're all quality titles so I recommend going for the games you haven't played. Prioritize Wipeout HD above all else though, that game is a beast.

Ah alright! Kudos to you :)

Except I have all those games.:|

Its official, PSN sucks.

Using this as ownage is like saying your wife was in a car accident but you got a thousand dollars off it.

OMG that is just awesome. :D

I was planning to buy wipeout HD as soon as the ps store was up, and now I can get it for free 8) don't know what I'll pick for the second title though.

but man that is cool.

EDIT: just checked out dead nation, I'll be getting that :)

They can be downloaded from the PSN store.

Ah... so they arent retail games... they are downloadables... I understand that some titles can fill both categories, but the words of the TC made it sound like Sony was gonna be shipping out games to people, which didnt sound realistic.

Anyways... good for them. Dead Nation piques my interest.... everything else there I've played or don't care about.

Kinda messed up that it's two games most PSN using PS3 owners already probably have. Dead Nation and the Fury pack for Wipeout are the only two I don't already have, and Killzone Liberation and Pursuit Force are found cheap on the internet so this will be a really easy choice for me.

[QUOTE="tryagainlater"][QUOTE="110million"]And all you had to go was give up playing any games online for weeks. 110million

You're really using this for "ownage"?

Well Dead Nation and LBP will probably be good.

I think I'm just a bit happy because I was expecting a lot less.tryagainlater

[QUOTE="theuncharted34"]EDIT: just checked out dead nation, I'll be getting that :)Master_ShakeXXX

it looks pretty good. I wonder why I've never heard of it.

Well then good thing I own 2 systems. LOL. Seriously I own 2 of those 5 games and the other 3 besides maybe Dead Nation don't really appeal to me. Sony could have had a better list than this. Like how about CODBO. Just kidding.

Hmm. Dead Nation and Wipeout for me. Very impressive package I must say.
