Poll: Your PS3 Welcome Back Gifts

[Andrew_Mac]

Dead nation and InFAMOUS for me gents. Was playing them both yesterday, seems i've chosen wisely. Very fun, both of them. Should keep me amused for a few days. Hopefully a few weeks as my parents are going on holiday and i'm staying at home. Also seems that the internets gonna be shut off for that time, so i'll be stuck playing offline games.

Just curious, how exactly do I redeem my free game? Do I just go into the PS store and click download? Or do I need to go through my e-mail account, or someother method? Thank you in advance for any advice!

Go on the store and click on the welcome back option. should be on the main list of things. then follow what it says. Theres an option to get the free games, then the list of games itself. Theres also 30 days playstation plus that activates when you decide to download it i think.

Little Big Planet (which isn't that good now that I've played it)
And Wipeout (gameplay videos I watched of it remind me of the Star Wars Podracer game I had on my N64). That one is still downloading.

I would have loved for the Ratchet and Clank game to be available in the US for free because I was planning on getting it anyway.

I got inFAMOUS because Im really psyched to play the second one and I wanted to play through it again. I also got Wipeout. Spacey futuristic racing doesn't need a reason.

Cheers mate! The information e-mail was a bit light on direction for my taste.

Infamous and probably Dead Nation. I already own LBP.

I downloaded Infamous yesterday and went to download Wipeout today but lo and behold I can't get onto the Welcome Back page. I guess I don't get a second game now? Jesus Sony get your act together.

Go to account management, transaction management, services list, scea promotions, welcome back package
Its because of all the traffic on the store

LBP and inFamous. I haven't gotten them yet sadly...BUT I WILL!!

ANYONE ELSE GET DICKED OVER BY THE STORE??

When i went to get my first game, the "Free PS3 Game 1" button was the only option. I didn't know the other 5 choices were supposed to be there in the same window. they weren't, so i just selected "free ps3 game 1." Then at the main "welcome back" page, that option was gone, me having chosen no game.

I'm fed up. I was so forgiving and understanding during this whole thing. But if after all this you can't even get the fucking store to do this shit right, then I've got a problem.

This happened to other people, what you need to do is go to account management, then go to your download area. And special event type things. I'm using the wrong names since I can't remember but trust me they are still there. IGN has an article if you need help, thats where i went.

OT: I got LBP and Infamous which I've beaten many times.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

I bought them all at once, but can't figure out how to download them now...

Leave the store, go to the PSN menu catagory in your PS3's main menu. Then go to "Account Management" then "Transaction Management" then "Services List" then "SCEA Promotions" you should then be able to select your games.

Hey thanks. You know I didn't mean to yell like that back there.

 

[Rad Party God]

I can haz free games! =D

As I don't have any PS3 game, I'd pick LittleBigPlanet and InFamous.

 

[Mr. 47]

Own inFAMOUS and LBP, so went for Super Stardust and Dead Nation. I am actually impressed by super stardust, had so little hope that it would be any good, but it is kind of addicting. Haven't tried Dead Nation yet, but I liked Alien Swarm.

inFAMOUS is amazing. I'm on my fourth playthrough now.

 

[The_Fezz]

I couldn't get anything, it bugged out when I tryed, that's not to say I didn't own everything on offer excluding the Fury pack for Wipeout HD, so I'm not that bothered.
