I have media Go. But when I click on welcome back package it says: No content was found.

First I thought to myself, man I probably don't know what I'm doing, but then again, I did get the US games.

It seems to have something with media go trying to access Euro content cuz the same thing happened to me and some others.

If you know someone with a ps3, i guess you could download them on there and then transfer them over?.

The PSP games don't show up for me on the PS3 either. I downloaded the US PSP games on PS3 btw. I guess I'll just forget about them. No big deal.

Your right... I guess the only way is directly from the PSP over wi-fi then.

Just got my PS3 and wanted to activate my account on it, but it has already been activated on 5 other systems. It appears that the account management site is down for maintenance (how convenient). Any ideas how to deactivate the old systems, so I can redeem the welcome back games?

I ended up getting Dead Nation, LittleBigPlanet, Wipeout HD and Infamous. Should provide me with some entertainment (when I'm done with the Uncharterd 3 mp beta!)

What? Link? And why does it have to be wired?
Click to expand...
I'm guessing it's because the PS3 can't simultaneously connect to the internet at the same time it's acting as a bridge for the PSP unless it's wired.

I just remembered to sign up for PSN Plus, so I'll have it until 8/1/2011. But I'm not even going to bother with the PSP games cause I know I'll never play them.

Just get them so that you have something for your Vita.(If you ever think of getting a Vita)

Also, you don't actually need to download the games. Just "purchase" them to add them to your download history so that you can download it in the future.

7gb for Infamous geez that'll be downloading for weeks! Well whatevers gots my 2 PS3 games. Dunno about PSP #2. I thought I'd d/l Killzone as a joke but I only have a 2gb memory stick so its file size actually makes it a good match for me @_@ Is it until Sunday to decide or through Sunday?

No PSP games showing for me either on either PS3/Media Go or PSP and looking through the comments on the EU blog I don't seen to be the only one with that issue.

I didn't have any showing up for me today, but a few days ago I'd already purchased the Welcome Back package (just hadn't settled on any games), and so I was able to access the games through the method mentioned in the OP.

Anyone know if you'll be able to buy LBP after this is over? I got my two games, but I was kind of regretting not picking up LBP so I was going to buy it if it was cheap enough, but then I remembered that LBP wasn't on the US store before they started the free games deal and doesn't appear to be available for purchase anywhere on the US store either.

I haven't played those other two, but I will say that LittleBigPlanet PSP is pretty great.

You can download EU PSP games via media go but you have to get the

1. PSP welcome back pass via PSP
2. choose the games you want & cancel download (i took memory card out so it goes to download but fails as no storage)
3. then go to download list on media go with your EU account

sorry if already asked, but does the US PSN+ free trial also expire on july 3rd?

and if i already own the US versions of the UK games being offered (dead nation, wipeout fury, lbp, quest for booty, infamous) is there any incentive to download any of those games? would the UK games offer different trophies?

How do I get the welcome back pass?
Whenever I go to the PS store via PSP I see nothing related to the welcome back program, and on the PS3 I see nothing about the PCP.

I have an old PS3 running unhacked official 3.15 firmware so I can't connect to PSN - I have not & will not upgrade as I will lose my YellowDog Linux. I have borrowed a buddy's PS3 running the latest official firmware - is there a way I can set up my own profile on and use his PS3 to download these games and then transfer them to my PS3? I tried swapping HDDs and was told to format or the PS3 wouldn't start, heh. I realize this is a long shot but I thought I'd ask. Thanks for any info.

Killzone Liberation is really fantastic. I say that one.

Alright... LittleBigPlanet PSP or Killzone Liberation. Decisions! lol

I feel that LBP would be the better game to have as a pick up and play title sitting on my memory stick but I don't like the large file size it has. Feel like it would take up too much room and get in the way of other memory things.

Wish Killzone Liberation had a demo.

Sorry if this has already been asked. I had no interest in Killzone or Pursuit Force, so I chose ModNation and LBP for my PSP games.

I already had the disc version and have purchased DLC for LBP. Should my DLC and saves still be fully accessible just by installing the download of LBP PSP and running it normally?

EDIT: figured it out, it works fine.

I'm sure this has been covered, but if I have another profile on my system from a different country, can I get the free games from that region as well?
