So, The PSN Welcomes You Back...

[Eggsnham]

And you get a bunch of free content (fun fact, you can download all of the content if you have more than one account on your PS3).

What did you like, what didn't you like, and what did you get, assuming you already didn't know that you could get all of the content.

I liked all of it, really. But that's just because I'm super easily amused.

Although, the Stardust game seems a little awkward in terms of difficulty. One minute you're shooting up a couple of asteroids, the next minute you're fending off a massive offensive of enemy spacecraft and massive chunks of rock.

I can't reset my PSP password because the website is down for maintenance.

After my brother reset his password on his PS3, he then went to get his stuff off of PSP, he bought the "Welcome Back" thing that allows him to buy the free games, he looked at the games, then went to check how much memory he had, then went back and it said there was no content under the welcome back section, so he can never get his free games. He could only download LittleBigPlanet because he was already part way through when checking his memory.

So yeah, at the moment, totally shite.

 

[Evil Top Hat]

Wipeout HD and Fury were are pretty fun, worth the month of no PSN. Then I downloaded burnout paradise.

That game will make me fail my exams, I swear to god.

Super stardust is great, haven't played dead nation yet. I wouldn't have bought either. LBP for the PSP is surprisingly good. I hated it on the PS3 for some reason, but I may give it another shot now. Was going to buy Killzone Liberation anyway, had it in my hand to buy when I saw ME2 on sale for $35 just a week before it was announced. Yay impulsive buying! ^.^

Was surprised at the game quality, even if I already owned the more interesting ones.

 

[icame]

I grabbed wipeout and dead nation. I haven't played either yet because I have been distracted by Valkyria chronicles and GTA: San andreas

 

[Neuromaster]

Got Infamous & LittleBigPlanet. Enjoying Infamous so far. I haven't had a chance to play LBP yet, but it looks like my brother's been enjoying it so woo!

I'm gonna assume that Paradise is one of those "You own it until PS Plus runs out" sort of deals?

Either way, I may have to hog some more HDD space with it!

I believe you can have it even after ps plus runs out.

 

[DanielBrown]

I got R&C: Quest for Booty and Dead Nation.
Unfortunetly I regretted picking R&C instead of Wipeout the moment I pressed download... Dead Nation was pretty fun. Not the best game, but great for killing some time. Quest for Booty lasted like three hours. >.<

Also downloaded Streets of Rage 2 and Burnout Paradise from PSN. Burnout is awesome, which makes me regret not getting Wipeout even more. I didn't think I liked racing games.

Edit: Realised I actually have two accounts, my standard European and a US one. Currently downloading Wipeout+Fury and Stardust. Got all the free games now!

 

[DustyDrB]

I got Little Big Planet and the Wipeout bundle. I would have loved to be able to get the Ratchet and Clank game, but I'm in the US.
I played LBP for a bit. I don't think I like it all that much. I'll give it more time, but the platforming is painfully easy.

Wipeout HD and the rest of the pack has been downloading slowly while I play other games on my PS3. I don't expect to love it either. I watch some gameplay videos of it and it sort of reminded me of the Star Wars Podracer game I had on my N64 as a kid. But I don't know how right I am on that, and my tastes have changed a lot since then anyway. But I already have Infamous (though I haven't played it) and Dead Nation is a definite no go for me (I hate zombies).

 

[DeadlyYellow]

Got Dead Nation and Stardust. Stardust is fun, haven't finished downloading Dead Nation though.

I believe you can have it even after ps plus runs out.

If it is a free game through Plus, then it should not work after your subscription has ended. Dunno personally as I never tried the service, but it flashes that warning when you buy a game that is free on Plus.

Really? I don't remember seeing that warning, seems slightly unfair, telling people that some games will be free on playstation plus then telling them at the last second that they'll take it off you. They're basically convincing people they can have the full game then revealing at the last second that it's only a demo.

Have you tried going to account management>transaction management>services list>SCEA promotion? The same type of thing happened to me and my brother (and from what I have heard, many other people as well), but we went there and found that we could download the games without any problems. Try it.

OT: Well, I got Dead Nation and Wipeout HD. I haven't played much of Dead Nation, but I have played a bit of Wipeout (got about 6 new games recently, so I haven't really been playing those free ones that much). Wipeout is really good from what I have played, and was definitely worth it. Don't really care about PS+, so haven't really been taking advantage of that.

Tell your brother that he should be able to download his second free game, by selecting Account Management, then Transaction Management, then Services List, and then finally PSN Promotions.

[Torey Jefferson]

i got little big planet and infamous i had them before and don't finish them so this is my second chance

 

[HassEsser]

I liked it all. I already had inFAMOUS and LittleBIGPlanet, but I downloaded them anyway because I have multiple accounts and such; WipEout was my favorite out of the bunch, it's just a plain fun game and it looks really really good; Dead Nation is awesome, as well, but I'm waiting for a coop partner before I get into it; and I agree with you, OP, on StarDust. That game can be going smooth for a minute before BAM 50 enemies appear, that, or, you're shooting at asteroids and *suddenly* you explode from a stray particle you didn't see; still, a great game.

Also, I am milking PlayStation Plus. I've downloaded every Plus exclusive theme, and nearly every Plus-free game. When this Plus offer is about to end, I'm gonna give one of my spare accounts Plus so I can keep it going. God, I'm such a bastard.

It's 30 days of free access. The free games they promised are yours forever, it's only the PSN+ ones that are yours for a month and they never promised anything different to that.

Thank you very much.
He was raging before.

 

[Harveypot]

I got infamous and dead nation and on ps+ i downloaded burnout paradise for my dad and a dynamic dragon wallpaper that moves and breathes... fire... must... stop... watching...

I'm sorry, what?

 

[D0WNT0WN]

Cant get my free PSP games because the wifi on my PSP is broken and Media Go doesnt like me.

Thoroughly enjoying Wipeout HD, I am loving that soundtrack. Dead Nation I have yet to play properly.
