Shud PSN owners be rewarded?

[jackpipsam]

but if 360 severs dieded out every single 360 user will flood the internet demanding compensation.

yup EVERY single user, something tells me that doesn't work somewhere.

If a F2P MMO went down, they shouldn't need to give everyone a new weapon.

no they should not, your point is?

Well honestly, I think it should depend if you have a PS+ membership or not. If you don't, you don't get compensated for the 3 days, because obviously, you're not paying for the service (like myself, though considering getting PS+ eventually).

If you DO have PS+, I think you should get an extra free PSN game that's published by Sony.

It's only fair

Did xbox not go down around Christmas a few years ago and everyone got a free arcade game?

Something like this would be nice (LOLJK I DON'T OWN A PS3) but not necessary..!

Don't think so?

But that'd be totally different anyway. LIVE: Paid for

PSN: Free.

No it did, did some retard not then sue them for not preparing for the holiday bandwith expectation.

Oh yes, how could I forget.. that's ever fanboy's argument ;-;

It was hardly meant as an argument, its a true statement. We wont recieve an so called, 'compensation' because Sony doesnt need to compensate us for anything. I didnt pay for PSN, so not being able to use if for a while isn't going to make me rage and say, "I NEEDZ ME REWARDZ!" It would be like if Facebook went down- facebook is a 'free' service. If it goes down facebook isnt going to give you five bucks when it comes back online and be like, 'sorry about the inconvenience sir.'. And I dont want to start a flame war but I think that it is ridiculous to have to pay to play online. I already bought the console, pay for the internet, and buy your damn games. Not to even mention DLC. So why should I pay $60 a year for the, 'privilige' to play online? Thats enough to actually buy ANOTHER game! In my opinion, Playstation Plus makes far more sense, I will pay extra to actually recieve something I want- not to just play online. Thats bull.

My point is if you pay for somthing monthly and it dies out for unknown reasons for an unexspected amount of time wouldnt you want compensation for it?

If xbox live went down I could understand compensation, seeing as its a service your paying for, PSN however is free, why should you get compensation for something that your being given for nothing?

It was Undertow. They made it free for about two weeks.

no, I have a sub to an SOE (sony) mmo and when that was down for a week we didn't get anything nor did I want anything (apart from answers).

I have enough sense to know things happen

I really don't get why people are saying PSN is free. It's included in the cost of the console. It was far from free, but we only had to pay for it once.

Double stupid post.

but it doesn't have to be played online, so sony owes nothing

 

[Digitaldreamer7]

I pay 60 a year for xbox live, if it goes down for more then 24 hours... Yes I'd expect a day's credit on my account something like that but per the agreement for when using xbox live it says im SOL if there's an outage.

I pay nothing for PSN so... no I don't expect anything because im not losing anything. The only one losing is sony. I planned on buying some games this weekend to play, so, no.


If you don't pay for it, you dont deserve any compensation.

Even if you do, the EULA you agreed to has a clause that states they can take it down whenever and they don't have to give you anything.

Deal with it.

 

[moopig66]

Yes, by punishing the people responsible!!!

I didn't say that they owe anything. In fact my first post in this thread states that very clearly.

I said that we did pay for online services. They are covered in the cost of the system.

[EDIT] The tone of this post is kinda dickish, and I don't mean it to be that way. Until someone creates a way to shone tone in text, it's a problem I'll continue to have.

If you pay for playstation plus of course you should be compensated. If you don't however all you should get is an apology and most of all better service in the future.

No they are not going to reward you for having there system fail for a few days. Go to bed and be sure to spell check before posting messages.

Glass houses and all that jazz

Since I pay for PS+, I would like a few days credited to my account, but I don't really care if it doesn't happen
