I don't think that offer would be available to you. I'm sure it is only available to people that had psn acounts prior to the hacking incident.JasonKaotic said:

Cool I'm glad to heard that Sonys not as bad as I thought. Sadly there fanbase scared me away from there console A looong time ago.
Does anyone know how Ratchet and Clank was? Or is Dead Nation better? I haven't played anything other than LBP (already own) and InFamous (definitely going to get this one though!).
Also, is this going on now? I just went on the PSN today in the first time for a while, reset my password and everything via PC, but could not get on the PSN (maintainence) in the U.S.
Overall it's a really generous deal. Hell, the PSN is free; I feel spoiled enough as it is after those years with the Xbox Live Gold membership long ago. Now if anything, that was a Paystation Network.

Interestingly enough, the reason I bought a PS3 was to get inFamous, and as such, I already have it. The only other game on there that I have even HEARD of is Little Big Planet, and it never even looked appealing to me at all. Fortunately I am not affected by this whole fiasco because I don't have any credit card information on my account and I don't even have any games that have online play, so these free games are bonuses.
How do I download the new games?Earnest Cavalli said:Sony's PSN Apology Includes Free Games
Sony wants to win back your support following the recent PlayStation Network outage, and it's hoping free games and movies will do the trick.
The latest update to the official PlayStation blog details Sony's plan to offer gamers a mea culpa that it diplomatically dubs the "Welcome Back" program.
Key to this goodwill grab is a selection of free downloadable games on offer to PlayStation 3 and PSP owners. Sony explains:
All PlayStation Network customers can select two PS3 games from the following list. The games will be available for 30 days shortly after PlayStation Store is restored and can be kept forever.
Dead Nation
inFAMOUS
LittleBigPlanet
Super Stardust HD
Wipeout HD + Fury
For PSP owners, you will be eligible to download two PSP games from the following list. The games will be available for 30 days shortly after PlayStation Store is restored and can be kept forever.
LittleBigPlanet
ModNation Racers
Pursuit Force
Killzone Liberation
Additionally, the plan's offerings include free movie rentals, 30 days of free PSN Plus service and a number of free virtual items for Sony's PlayStation Home service. Different plans are available for gamers in Latin America [http://blog.eu.playstation.com/], but the core concept of "free stuff" remains the same across the globe.
So boys and girls, is this timely show of generosity enough to win back whatever PlayStation brand-loyalty you may have had before the nearly month-long PSN outage [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/109448-PSN-Down-Worldwide-Is-Anonymous-to-Blame], or was that time enough to drive you forever into the electronic embrace of Sony's competitors?
