PSN Welcome Back Program Available Now - UPDATED Details Inside

I'm very tempted to take the leap. I remember going to see that on Day 1. Weird thing is, I barely remember anything about the movie. Just vague images.

It's very strange actually, watch it, it's like Mass Effect meets Gears of War, I'd swear it was made today.
 
I think that flim is under rated. I liked it, sure its not going to win awards, but its a fun popcorn movie. Don't expect it to follow anything from the series, except having a "cid" character.

On a side note, you don't have to be signed in to keep downloading stuff? Thank goodness I had infamous qued up.

No, you select Wipeout HD Fury in the welcome back selection, you'll be given the option to download all three items (HD/Fury/Unlock), just download Fury.

Awesome! Thanks :D

If you weren't already a PS+ subscriber before the free month you don't get Abe's Exodus free, when I add it to my cart it shows up as being $9.99. And the Killzone map pack gives me a message that I'll only have access to it while I'm a subscriber.

What about Magic the Gathering: Duel of the Planeswalkers? Do you keep that or the DLC(? The thing that I'm curious about, the DLC since I already own the game)? Or tough shit? Because if that's the case I'll just pass on plus until I see something that catches my eye or July 2nd, either/or.

Infamous has been downloading for almost 3 hours and is only 19% done. Is that bad or the norm right now?
Click to expand...

Yeah, I guess so. The game is huge. Like almost 8GB if I remember correctly. I bought the downloadable version last June, but deleted it after I beat it because of how huge it was.

I managed to grab it earlier today.

Guess that's my prize for being quick as hell.

FF:TSW isn't as bad as people make it out to be, but then again I'm slightly biased as I liked it in 1999 just like I continue to like it now. I still think it was a huge generational leap forward when it came to CGI.
 
The PS3 games were a no brainer for me, but I can't decide which PSP game to get besides LBP. I've never played any of the Killzones (but I like shooters as much as any other genre if they're done well). Mod Nation Racers has always looked okay, I dunno. And I know nothing against Pursuit Force, in fact I'm going to have to hit youtube or something to even know what it is.

Any suggestions? Is one of those three (KZ, Mod or Pursuit Force) far and away better than the others?

If Magic is a PSN game I'm pretty sure you won't get to keep that. No idea about the DLC.

Ending sucked though. So much. Worst ending ever.
 
The Final Fantasy movie was absolutely unforgettable.

I was on acid when I saw it.

Anyone know what happens if you uploaded some save files to cloud storage once your PSN+ subscription runs out?
Click to expand...

It's saved in the cloud for 6 months after your plus subscription runs out. You can gain access back by resubscribing.
 
Killzone Liberation isn't bad, and IIRC has a demo on PSN and elsewhere online if you want to try it out. It's different from the others in the series due to being isometric than first person shooting.

Pursuit Force was an okay launch title, but even free I wouldn't really recommend it.

I haven't tried Mod Nation PSP yet (but it's the one I got), but there is a demo on PSN if you want to try that out before getting it.

You still have a month to go so don't be too pressed right now to make a decision. Try the demos out of for either of the two and youtube pursuit force.

Could you or anyone that has popped plus check that for me? If I can keep the DLC for the game (yes, it's PSN), I'll probably pop plus to save me about $10-15 in card expansions, otherwise I'll probably wait until July 2nd before popping.

I don't think the Magic offer has started yet. None of the Magic stuff shows up under PS+.

Oh, You're right!

They do mention the DLC, but I really want to know if you get to keep that as it's worthless to pop plus if I can't keep the DLC for the main game which I already have. :/
 
Keep getting PSN errors, can't really do anything. Thanks for the Welcome Back package I can't utilize Sony! PSN might as well still be down.
 
I got halfway through claiming my first game when I got kicked out of the store, now I can't find a way to get back to that point. All I have left is the second free game option. Anybody know a way around this? I'd prefer to not be gypped out of one of these games :|

Damn. I tried to get the PS+ free 30 days, ran into an error and now its gone. Same for the Free PS3 game 1 option.

People should really read the OP.

EDIT: Jinx
 
May have been answered earlier, but not in OP...

Can I claim the two free PS3 games from the US store on my US account if I have already claimed the ones on my AUstralian account?
 
Uh, random movie question.

Reading the OP, I'm a little confused about the movies. The Welcome Back package lasts for only a month, but the Movies in the package last only until the weekend? Does this mean that there won't be new free movies added next week or something?

Well yeah, it worked for the game, but it just lists Playstation plus expiring on July 3rd, but no plus by my PSN tag.

AUS PSN? Yeah, I got no + sign either on my AUS account but you are PS+ member. How do you know? Try downloading one of the free games for PS+ members. If it doesn't ask you for money then it means you are PS+ member now.
 
So after a lot of errors I just managed to download all 6 games that are available. There's no point activating the PS+ on my US account right? My main one is European and I never sign on to the US except for downloading stuff
 
Just finished inFAMOUS download at 1 hour and 58 minutes...

Weird thing, it seemed to pick up after inserting a game to play. Probably a coincidence.

We don't know. And frankly they're rentals so they really aren't worth anything after the "24 hour viewing" period ends. You can watch them once, but that's it and you have to watch them before the end of your month/30 days of "purchase"/renting it. The Sony PSN video store royally sucks because of this for free content since they generally make them rental instead of own (even if it's shitty SD. :/)

Yes.
 
Also for those getting Killzone Liberation, please see if the DLC/"Chapter 5+Online Play" is on PSN. Otherwise you guys are getting semi-screwed from getting a complete singleplayer + multiplayer game. I had to Google around to find it online since Killzone.com is focused on KZ3 and not supporting KZ1/2/Liberation anymore and YourPSP.com (which was advertised by Kotaku and a few other places) doesn't have either. :/
 
If I am downloading the games in the background, can I play a game while I wait for the downloads to finish, or is launching a game going to pause the downloads? I got 3/4 of my free games and need to do that trick once PSN isnt being bloated down to get my last one!

yep.
 
Well I'm able to download the games on my main account, I never updated the password on my fiance's account so its making me go to the website to update it, which is down. I at least got to update my euro account, made it a couple of years ago to get the Arkham Asylum demo early, and am downloading Ratchet and Deadnation off their until I can update my fiance's account to get Wipeout and Stardust.

6 free games, 30 days of PS+ across multiple accounts and 1 year of identity protection, thanks Sony!
 
Ok awesome, got PSN plus for a month now if only I can browse to check out any deals, does Sony have a one man crew running things here?
