well dunno how but i clicked "free PS3 game 1" and got Wipeout, then went to click on "free PS3 game 2" and its vanished! So all i got is 1 game and the PS+ trial

Did you follow the instructions in the OP?

 

[bj00rn_]

I regret grabbing Quest for Booty..

Good thing LBP is FANTASTIC - Except from the disgusting floaty controls of course.

 

[Go319]

Did you follow the instructions in the OP?

i'll do that thanks for the reminder!

 

[Lain]

Got around to check my US PSN account, only to find out that unlike the Italian one, I could get the free PSP games directly from my PS3. Yay me!

 

[Acquiescence]

I grabbed myself inFamous and Dead Nation. Too bad I'm already inundated with Burnout Paradise right now. I'll admit it, I feel a little spoiled with all these free games.

 

[Rattles]

Hey guys my girlfriend went and downloaded the welcome back key on the psp but then quit and now there's nothing showing in the welcome back section... Any ideas?

the funny thing is: on my ps3, i can see the welcome back games for the psp but no ps3 games. any ideas why this is happening?

OP, read it!

In other news, Burnout Paradise turns out to be so much fun after I figured out how to play it. I wouldn't have played it though if it's not for the free 30 day trials from PS+. Now I'm thinking of buying the full disc game. Thx Sony!

lol, cool! thanks

brb just queuing some games

Dead Nation and Rachet, cheers Sony!

Also thanks for the life-saving OP after I accidentally quit out of the welcome back screen

 

[TheSeks]

So how do you get PS+ Plus if you are a PSP owner? I don't see it on my PSP or in Media Go...

Should be able to pop it with MediaGo, but I'm not sure.

And another question, even though I don't have a PSP register. Its letting me choose! So Killzone Liberation and .... Which of the other three are worth getting?

LBP = Same as LBP1 PSP, but graphically downgraded. If you didn't like LBP PS3, you won't like LBP PSP.

MNR = Same as LBP, but as a Kart Racer.

Pursuit Force = Launch title for the PSP. I haven't played it, but reviews are mixed. Youtube it.

Ratchet and Clank or SSD? What do you recommend?

SSD HD over Furry and Clank by far.

And I would have never tried it were it not for this offer. Many thx Sony!

Sony should put the demo back up, minus the "Smile Please" trophy glitching out it was a decent demo to try the game. Same for SSD HD. :|

If you say no after the copying the file over the PS3 will keep the file around so you can copy it again later. Why they pop up that stupid delete dialog box then and there is a mystery.

To free space on the PS3. Besides, you can transfer that file off /psp/game/id of the title to your PC anyway.

In other news, Burnout Paradise turns out to be so much fun after I figured out how to play it. I wouldn't have played it though if it's not for the free 30 day trials from PS+.

THERE WAS A DEMO!

ARGH! Did none of you grab those off the PSN store back in the day!? *driven into madness over people discovering how good most of these games are and should've bought them back in the day*

To his credit, the Burnout Paradise demo was not that indicative of the quality of the game. If I was not familiar with Criterion's pedigree and only had to go by the demo alone, I would have considered skipping the game.

 

[MattyH]

has the EU home got the free stuf yet?

 

[KAL2006]

Damn shame we can't get the discount for Outland with our free Plus account.

 

[elektrixx]

Far out. My Australian inFamous save doesn't work with the PSN copy.

 

[lunarworks]

oh shit lol read first page

Perhaps a mod should change the name of the thread to include "READ OP IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS"

 

[Phife Dawg]

So after three tries I was finally able to DL and install Dead Nation (was always corrupted before). This better be worth it.

Grabbed Dead Nation, LBP, SSDHD, Wipeout and two PSP games for the time when I grab some PSP/Vita, whatever for dirt cheap.

SSHD is pretty cool but I'm absolutely not digging Wipeout at all. Can't complain since I got it for free though and it's always nice to see 60 FPS on the consoles.

 

[KAL2006]

is there a way to download free PSP games if you don't own a PSP

 

[ACE 1991]

God dammit, I STILL can't get any free games. Whenever I select the welcome back program it looks like its working but then never comes up.

EDIT: Wait, do you have to have a PSN account before 4/20/2011 in order to download the games?

 

[SmithnCo]

You can download them on the PS3. You just can't play them there and have to transfer them to a PSP.

EDIT: Huh, didn't know the UK store worked differently. That's strange.

 

[BlueSummers]

OK, now I'm REALLY pissed. I was downloading Infamous yesterday and it was going SUPER slow. I go to sleep with it downloading and when I woke up, I was greeted to a nice error message.

I exit and there is no Infamous, just some corrupted data, so I have to reboot my Ps3 and rebuild the hardrive. Now I have to RE download and it's at 399 minutes right now and only getting higher. Fuck this.

Yes.

 

[hirokazu]

No one's tried renaming the save folder? I guess I'll try once I get it downloaded...

 

[Zomba13]

Yup. At least on the US store. On the UK store you need to do it on the PSP (meaning I can't get the games because my mem stick is too small ).

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

finally got all my games PICKED OUT, but not downloaded. i don't want to download them right now. i just clicked "SELECT", clicked on the game i wanted, clicked ADD TO CART, then went and checked out, but DID NOT click download once checkout was complete.

did that for my remaining games.

i feel sorry for all of the normal content that will be released on PSN this week. the servers will still be a mess from users trying to get infamous. i just want sweet e3 content and outland.

 

[KAL2006]

Yup. At least on the US store. On the UK store you need to do it on the PSP (meaning I can't get the games because my mem stick is too small ).

from the UK
Wonder why I couldn't find where to download free PSP games on the PS3. Oh well, I wasn't that excited for the free PSP games anyway.

 

[Spocker]

Didn't work with my European (Special Edition) etiher.

 

[Manp]

nope. go to the store on your PSP and "buy" the Welcome Back thingy.

then go on your PS3, chose your account management, transaction management, services list. you can chose and download your PSP games on your PS3 from there.

 

[Andee]

Awesome, NA Wipeout HD Fury works with UK Wipeout HD.

I'm quite happy with all this, 4 free games on the PS3 and 2 on the PSP

Can I ask how you managed to get Fury working?

I previously had purchased Wipeout HD from the UK store, and selected Wipeout HD/Fury from the US store as a free game, but after downloading Fury my UK Wipeout doesnt appear to have recognised it?

 

[luxarific]

I thought that my disk-version saves of Infamous wouldn't be able to be used with my downloaded copy of Infamous (from the Welcome Back package), but I was able to load them up with no problem.

is there a way to download free PSP games if you don't own a PSP

Does anyone know? I was able to download Killzone Liberation and LBP PSP on my UK account from my PS3, but I don't see a similar option on the US Store.

 

[Replicant]

I previously had purchased Wipeout HD from the UK store, and selected Wipeout HD/Fury from the US store as a free game, but after downloading Fury my UK Wipeout doesnt appear to have recognised it?

UK games will not work with US games. If you had downloaded Fury from the US store, you may as well download the normal US wipeout and the unlock key. You're not being charged extra anyway and everything should be in your download list in the US store.

 

[LQX]

Question. If you claim your games but don't download inside the 30-day window can you download them again in say 2 months once this is all over if you get a new PS3 or format the drive?

 

[Acquiescence]

Everyone on my friends list is playing inFamous, lol. Bodes well for the sequel I guess.

Maybe if they give the sequel away for free too.

 

[LQX]

Yes.

Thanks.

 

[Turok_TTZ]

Apparently one of my ps3's done bricked on me. PS3 dont recognise disks, cant access account management without freezing, a lot of things i cant explain. Apparently my ps3 was like this since my older bro attempted to download Infamous. he went to check its progress on download management and apparently nothing showed but it claims to be downloading two things.



First pic is friends list. icons fail to show up and for some reason its spacing itself alot. keeps a recurring icon that u will see along with the next two pics.

the second pic shows that icon again. wut it means is w/e program or thing i want to do, if it has that icon, i cant access it no matter wut. so video and music (the same situation) is completely ruled out.

3rd pic apparently the icon is supposed be representing the infamous that succesfully downloaded but not installed yet (my own speculation). only thing my ps3 is good for now is browsing the web. everything else isnt working. Attempted to restore to default settings or format but i cant tell whether its formatting or it just froze on me.

This occurred from my older bro dling infamous as part of the welcome back package. anyone else getting this issue? wud like to know how to fix. also im sorry for bad pics, my cell's camera is shit.

 

[Seraphis Cain]

Your PS3 just happened to take a shit while downloading Infamous. The Welcome Back package didn't "break" your PS3.

 

[BigFwoosh]

I'm trying to get Ratchet and Clank and WipEout on my EU account, and only the WipEout demo downloads. If I try to download the unlock code, Fury, or R&C I get an error code (80029519). I tried downloading a random demo from the store and it downloads fine. This happen to anyone else? If it matters, I used to run custom firmware but went back to official just before MvC3 came out.

wut shud i do then?

 

[Jucksalbe]

You will probably have to format your hdd.

 

[Like the hat?]

I don't even have Infamous listed anywhere? what the heck

 

[Truespeed]

I was able to pretty much get everything offered from the NA and EU stores (only game I did have was Wipeout). Now bring on Japan! (Echoshift and Hustle Kings)

 

[drizzle]

I had a PSP account from before 4/20/2011, but I never logged it into a PS3. Because of this, I was wondering if I would manage to get the PS3 games, if I asked a friend to join and retrieve them for me.

I'm just posting this to tell you guys that yes, a PSP-only account will be able to redeem the PS3 games once signed in from a PS3. Went with inFAMOUS and Wipeout HD. For PSP I got ModNation Racers and Little Big Planet. Too bad I don't have euro and japanese accounts... oh well.

Thats because they are the same account (Their is no PSP only or PS3 only account, just a PSN account).

 

[paperheart]

Hit enter on SCEA Promotions and hit enter on each listing. It'll probably say "remaining:1". So, you essentially added the promotion to your account but didn't redeem it because for whatever reason it didn't start the download. There will but a button to hit to take you to the welcome back page and you can download whatever game under that promotion. There's no need to remember what game you initially paired 1 or 2 with. After it starts downloading you can go back and see that 1 or 2 now says "remaining: 0".

If you cancel the download you then go under download list.

Thank you very much for replying to me last night. I was able to put everything in my download list. I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't doing anything wrong.

 

[AwakenedCloud]

Earlier today I was finally able to reset the password for my JP PSN account but now every time I try to sign-in with it I get the message "you cannot sign in using another user's sign-in ID(email address)". I've only used that account on my PS3 and I don't even own a PSP. Anyone else have this problem?

 

[jett]

Good lord LBP reminded me I hate physics-based controls. I think Dead Nation might be the best of the games I got.

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

Heh got Streets of Rage 2 last night for free using Playstation Plus and I now have 100% trophies on it a few hours later, nice.
