Erm, about the free games download, will they be avaliable for new users on PSN, or only those who already have an account before the shut down, because I bought an PS3 this weekend, and still need to make my account, so I wanted to know if I also will be able to do these downloads.

Hmm, I think the free games download will only be for people who already had PSN accounts. I could be wrong, though.

Looking forward to when the store goes back up, 4 free games is nothing to be sniffed at.

I'm thinking maybe Ratchet & Clank and Dead Nation for the PS3, and I'm not sure what to get for the PSP.

Hmm... I have a US account on the PS3 as well. I wonder if it's possible to get Super Stardust HD as well..?

Ratchet & Clank isn't on the list...

This quote is from Sony in one of it's announcments:
"1. For eligibility for the welcome back programme consumers must be an account holder on 20 April 2011. Specific details about these offers and eligibility requirements will be posted as the services go live. All existing PSN registrants have 30 days from when the welcome back programme goes live to redeem their content."

*Sigh* I suppose I won't have fun with Infamous this weekend.

Thought you already had a PS Account before the shut down, Alexander?

...And please, keep the damn console debate out of this topic before I blow a fuse...for the 4th time... The 2nd and 3rd times were in my facebook and my school bus respectively. If you really must, make your own topic about it.... Or go on a PM duel or something....

That kind of sucks, but it is the "Welcome back" program, not the "Hey, come sign up" program.

I'm looking forward to InFamous.

They say they want to get it up sooner, but the deadline is the 31st, so I'm not expecting its return until then.

We also have 30 days to claim our free games after the store goes back up, so there's no rush.

Same here. And I really want them to hurry up and open the PS Store (have it on PSP and PC via Media Go).

And I got the email. It took them a day to send it And it doesn't work because the Store is still down.
