- We are working on a Welcome Back offer in PlayStation Home and will share that when it is confirmed.

well i've completed infamous and i got dead nation, so i'll probably just get LBP1 and wipeout, seeing as quest for booty isn't a full length game.

I really hope that the american store gets different stuff.

The links dead btw

So, If I snag me some LBP, Will I have to keep getting the PS+ cards to keep it, Or is it really a free game for keeps?

it's a free game for keeps


I'm going with Infamous and Dead Nation


EDIT: oh wait, I have multiple accounts so i can get Quest for Booty too already have the others

Fuck yeah. I've been meaning to get InFamous for a while now. Also LBP I have always wanted to try out. Now we just have to wait for PSN store to come back up.

Been meaning to get InFamous, now I can get it for free.

Also is Dead Nation any good? I'm thinking of getting Quest for Booty instead.

Wipeout and Dead Nation are the only ones I don't already have, so I'll get them. Probably get LBP and MNR for PSP.

Oh, and I can get Super Stardust with my US account too.

I'll get quest for booty, lbp1, infamous and wipeout.
I already own dead nation and super stardust.

I'm sure quest for booty will be pretty shit though.

Any news on what Japan is giving away? I'm wondering if i'll even be able to play there stuff considering i can't read japanese.

The Japanese government isn't letting Sony put PSN back online because they say Sony hasn't put in place all the security measures they promised.

oh I guess thats a good thing overall.

So is quest for booty any good? How long is it?

Not long. Only one planet with a few missions. Couple hours maybe, tops?

... that sounds really shit.

No wonder this was a download game.

Yeah QfB isn't long, it's fun while it lasts though and has a little more platforming in comparison to the other Ratchet games.

I suppose I'll get Wipeout and Infamous as I don't have them anymore, though I fall into the category of people who have already beaten everything they're offering. Wonder if I can get PS Store credit or something instead.

Coolio, I guess now I don't have an excuse not to get Dead Nation. I'll probably get Wipeout too as that's the only other thing that interests me.

It's finally back up, and just as Murloc sent back MvC3

In terms of replay value those two are the winners.

Infamous is great but even then permemantly having wouldn't keep me too happy.

The fact LBP will have a huge amount of new users and possibly new user created levels is a big plus, plus i wanted to grab all the tiems from 1 so i could use them in 2 to make awesome levels and then work for media molecule.

Also don't you guys have foreign PSNs?

Infamous I'm getting because I haven't bought it or played it since I originally played the demo and I figured I might as well get it for free and Dead Nation I'm getting because I love me some Shoot 'Em Ups.

I have PSN's for every region, so I can get stuff from every region (unless they somehow decided the free stuff is only per console and not account), not to mention that I have an alternate EU account and my wife has an EU account as well..
