drahkon Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Open your eyes! Gee, thank you very much There's a massive panel on the right of the store. Nope there isn't. There wasn't when I looked a couple of hours ago and there still isn't one right now. I'm getting error messages when I try to do something in the store, so I guess I'll just have to wait a bit.

Strange, it was there just over 20 minutes ago.
Burny Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 It should be there - Joystiq had an article and apparently the Europe "Welcome back"-stuff is there. I get the error messages, too. Most likely the server is being hammered with requests atm.
Happenstance Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Worked for me anyway. Just in the middle of downloading Dead Nation.
Debug Mode Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 I can understand people being angry at the hackers, but I think Sony is incompetent for being hacked via a SQL injection attack and also storing the passwords in plaintext format. This story sounds fake, though. The file was being posted every where on /v/ last night. The whole story is legit. The hack, the terrible security and a lack of encryption. Thank god I don't keep my password the same for important things and thank god I have no account with Sony Pictures. The whole war against Sony shit, fine. If you believe they're being dicks to people who just want to tinker with the hardware they personally bought, I have no problem with that. It's when it starts harming the consumers that's the problem as they have done nothing wrong. PSN comes down, way to blow your 'fighting the good fight' mentality dumbasses. It didn't really affect me and I admit I found the players bitching somewhat hilarious, but it's a douche move. And now I've personally seen hundreds of emails and passwords flooded of innocent users and it just feels ridiculous. But I wish for the love of god Sony would take customer information seriously. Yet another file with no encryption..
Ryan Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 What I'll do is start the download before I go to bed then set the Slim to turn off when they're finished.
flameboy Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 hmmm I went to download them and they were there and now when I go there only stuff that shows up is playstation plus.
Happenstance Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 From the PS Blog: Q: I no longer have the option to choose my free Welcome Back games. What can I do? A: If you navigate away from the Welcome Back section of the store without choosing your free games or exit the store completely you may need to follow the below in order to choose and download your free games. On your PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Portable navigate to the PlayStation Network icon on the XMB Log into your PlayStation Network account and choose Account Management > Transaction Management > Services List Choose “PlayStation Network Promotions” from the list of services displayed Select either “PS3 Free Games” or “PSP Free Games” and then choose “Select Content” You will be taken to the store to choose your remaining free games.

Yeah I tried going into account management to see what the score was and it won't let me go into it at all. Will have to wait I guess. Stupid thing I didn't navigate away from the area i clicked on dead nation it brought up an error.
Sheikah Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Hrmmm... In the description for the 30 days of free PSN plus it says that all the titles are "free to play for 30 days". I thought titles bought with ps plus were kept forever?

I thought titles bought with ps plus were kept forever? No only games you buy with the discount of Playstation Plus are kept. The freebie games expire...although having said that I have the odd game that does still work without my subscription.
Aimless Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 My guess is that they like the idea of Sony allowing Battle.Net on their console.
Burny Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 And/or Activision cracked their "make-more-money"-whip. In any case, of all current Blizzard games, Diablo seems like the most natural fit for consoles. It's big on cooperative play and the concept can work reasonably well with a controller (unlike SC/WC).
Shorty Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 I couldn't get on the store at all today, kept getting errors. Once got as far as pressing "download" on the MK9 demo, but it froze for about 5 minutes, then popped up with an error, then froze permanently. The MK team must be kicking themselves for only putting the demo on PSN, just before it went down and just as the game was released. Will have lost them loads of sales.

Debug Mode Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 My god, just getting as far as to seeing the welcome back package is a pain in the ass on the PSP.
Cube Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 Just had a blast on Burnout Paradise, It still, obviously, rocks. Aye, it's still a lot of fun. Played the singleplayer enough to unlock my favourite car (R-Turbo Roadster) so I'm ready for online. I still remember the entire map. I suppose that's what happens when you play a game for over 1000 hours.
LegoMan1031 Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 Well after lots of error codes and everything else last night i managed to download Dead Nation and Infamous + activating playstation plus. On the subect of Burnout: Paradise meeting, i would be interested also!
