Well Im glad they didnt get those credit card details but the morning business shows were full of stories saying as much.

They really have taken their time lauching the welcome back programme. Its June now and still stalling.

did you hear that the NGP is rumoured to have 1/2 the power as promised.. to compete with Nintendo. Tough times for Sony.

1. Play TV stalling constantly (apparently SONY are aware of this and will release a patch some time in the next 2000 years to fix it)
2. 4OD not working in the PS3 browser; click on play and it just goes to a black screen
3. General glitchy/stalling Playstation Store
   

Is this what everyone else is getting or is there something extra up with my PS3?

The 4OD problem might be as simple as clearing your cache and history, as this is a common enough problem if you don't.

I've cleared cache, history, cookies etc. multiple times. Nothin' doin.' Is 4OD working on your PS3?

Welcome Back package is live on the store now. Just got Wipeout and Rachet and Clank. Have the others and not really too interested in Dead Nation. I think. Now to check if the US account and Uk account will gove me the other games. i.e. dead nation!

edit: Just tried the Uk account there. Downloading Dead Nation right now. Probably gonna get Infamous too even though I already have it.

Sorry, but that's the US one.
Don't have a link to the Irish one, but it's there now.

Downloading Dead Nation and inFamous myself.

My US, UK and Irish account all work. Got Superstardust off of the US one, Dead Nation off of the UK one and Wipeout and Rachet and Clank off of the Irish one. Sweet. Now to try for the PSP games.

Oops.

Ok I must have done something wrong because it's not giving me the option to download the free games. I only have the Playstation Plus tile available to me on the right hand side of the screen I think I may have clicked into and then pressed the back button but now it's no longer there. Anyone else have that problem?

Expires on July 3rd. You have a month to download them.

Krusader

It's up for a month, 3rd July

lol the servers are already going

Daysha, the button for the Welcome back package disappears after you select it and download it. You then have to go back into the Welcome Back part from the front page I think to be able to redeem your choice of two games.

Sony are just making it so worse for themselves. Some people may say there's millions accessing the network at the same time but Sony knew this was going to happen, they just have no foresight

Can't seem to be able to redeem them anywhere. I'm nearly sure I downloaded the package but I can't find anywhere to download them and when I go to the A-Z listings they're all listed as €26.99

Possibly, check in the downloads section of the Store and redownload it. Not really sure.

50% of Infamous downloaded, no issues here.

Kells...

I did the exact same thing I try to buy the games then and I could cause I hadn't enough credit.

richymcdermott
