PSN Welcome Back Program Available Now - UPDATED Details Inside

Doing this on a PSP is a nightmare.

Welcome Back offers vanished from my PSN Store (apparently adding them to the cart doesn't actually add them to the cart?). So that means and endless loop of... Account Management > Transaction Management > Services List > Promotions > Free Game 01 > Hope the store loads (It never does) > Start over from Account Management.

Check your Download List. It's possible you ended up in the same situation as. (I.E. Title got selected but not downloaded.)

Yep. First thing I did and your right. Infamous here we come.

Grabbed Dead Nation, and Super Stardust HD. Had little, if any problems with the store. After one or two attempts, I got confirmation, and was downloading.

I'm also looking forward to seeing Wipeout HD/Fury finally have a community again. Word of advice if you're new to Wipeout, stick with it, the learning curve is a little steep, but once you get it, it'll have all been worth it.

for some reason this post made me spit my drink and almost choked... I'm getting old.

edit: lol alr1ghtstart, sure you're not too worried if PSN is hacked again.

All my games are downloading now. It's not too bad to force your way through, but there are an incredible amount of errors right now.

Lucky, I can only get the small things to download without errors, Sonic 2, Streets of Rage 2, etc. Actually Ratchet has just started.

Infamous and Wipeout HD for me. Already played some Infamous; I've been waiting a while to play this! I've had the Wipeout HD demo for 2 years or something so I just needed the key for that.

They uploaded a new single install of Super Stardust? That's nice, wish I could get that changed on my download list. There are like five bits to hunt thru two hundred downloads, it's painful.

I wonder why Sony don't update their games client side, they make users download them and immediately they require patching, it's pretty bad.

What if I get a new Ps3 someday, and want to redownload infamous? Is it gone forever after the WB program deadline?

Can I download it to both my slim and phat ps3s?

Hm, how large are Wipeout and Infamous? I need to know due to disk space and my slow ISP (getting upgrade later this month)

I am pretty sure they are saved in your download list.

"This content cannot be selected at this time."

I can't get my free games/1 month of PSN+ from the Playstation Store. By the time I'm able to, the package will probably have expired.

Infamous ~7GB
Wipeout+Fury ~1.8GB

Have been doing just those games now ;P

All the wipeout stuff seems to be only about 1.6 GB from what I can see

download list needs more organization, as does the game grouping in the main store.
 
wasn't able to choose my games. I did like it said in the OP and went to my servise list in account management and there's no services there. Should I be worried?

My password needs to be reset. Because the site is down for maintenance I ask is there another way to reset my password?

I wish we could just remove stuff, even if we can't group stuff by demos/games/add-ons (and we should be able to) just removing stuff would be a massive help.

Did you click the "Get Now" button in the Welcome back icon (EU) or PS3 GAME 1/2 icon (US)?

I downloaded Dead Nation. The problem is that when I go to install it, it is literally taking 10 minutes to do 10%.

Is this normal? Should I shut down and restart?
 
Finally got through.

Now I can finally delete my inFAMOUS demo!

EDIT: BTW inFAMOUS is 7056 MB. Thank God I stuck in a 250 GB HD when I bought a PS3.

No, that's certainly not normal. No idea if you should restart or not though. I downloaded DeadNation again yesterday, install took two or three minutes tops.

Fuck it, its at 35%.

Yeah, knew something was off. Not sure why its doing this.

Thanks.

It took a hundred tries to get into the store and get to the games and even then because it timed out I couldn't download the second free game. Luckily if you go into account management you can check your free PSN vouchers there and even reclaim them from there.

I have a question. PSN Plus user from before the outage, my games have expired since then. When I check my account info it has the subscription extended two months to July, but the games from before are still expired. Shouldn't they be able to see that I'm still a Plus member?
 
yay for already having the Wipeout demo installed. i can't try fury yet, but at least i'm playing something new thanks to being able to just download the unlock key.

wipeout HD looks so stupidly good in 3D.

Don't keep trying if you are on PSP though. You get kicked off the WiFi every single time it fails. Not. worth. it.

How did you guys reset your passwords?
i did it through password reset on qriocity.com... worked just fine, but it was pretty slow.

just tried it for my old account and got a 'server maintainence error'. the reset went through anyway.

So I've been playing that Wipeout demo and its impossible for me to win the race with assists/weapons on or off lol. Its POD/F-Zero GX all over again in that I can't adjust to floaty controls and know I'll never unlock jack squat. Buuuut the games so nice to look at that I'll end up turning it on every now an then just to mess around. So I guess thats one PS3 game chosen along with Pursuit Force for PSP. Dunno about the seconds yet.

edit: I read in one of these threads the Wipeout has an unlock key thing? So I should keep the demo so I won't have to re-d/l it later?
