PSN Compromised (Euro Hack)

**Diamicles** · 2011-05-17 07:33

Pretty sweet that they are offering some free stuff. As mentioned before, they could have just said 'PSN back up lulz' and left it.

From that list, looks like I'll pick up WipeoutHD and inFamous, most likely.

I honestly don't know. Def getting LBP. Already played infamous. not sure if i should get it anyways or get wipeout which ive never played but don't know if id like

**Mjd** · 2011-05-17 08:32

Thanks Sony this totally makes up for it?

**Merovingian** · 2011-05-17 09:21

dead nation good? already have lbp,infamous(although i sold it long time ago) and wipeout(cause of PSN+ 1st month). At least i'm getting 2 more month of psn+.

**Dryr** · 2011-05-17 09:34

I was shocked. Not just one, but up to 4 free full games if you have psp too. Then, some free movie weekends (rentals). Def getting infamous even though I rented and didn't think much of it, probly getting wipeout as well (doesn't look amazing but I heard good things and wanted to play, but overpriced).

It might not be enough for those that only use ps3, and often, for their multiplayer. For ppl like me its free stuff for missing nothing and getting free identity theft protection.

Dead Nation isn't for everyone. It's a tough top-down twinstick zombie shooter with limited sight, requiring you to always be searching around with your flashlight (which is always up in the direction you're aiming) to ensure you don't get ganged up from behind.

There's videos out there that can give you an idea about how Dead Nation plays. I, for one, liked it and the local coop. It is a lot more interesting than your standard top down zombie survivor, as you actually move through locations and you actually have a chance to die sometimes.

I'm also in the "i own most of this" camp, so my only option is wipeout(glad i never bought this) and super stardust HD.

super stardust HD does have me intrigued a bit...I loved both geometry wars games and fantavision on PS2. definitely getting wipeout though.

**Azull** · 2011-05-17 10:37

Super Stardust HD is great fun if you never played it. Its simple enough to pick up and play without getting frustrated but hard enough to still be fun down the line.

**Stiker** · 2011-05-17 11:04

LBP was stolen from me and I've never played inFamous. This is a win.

**shidobu** · 2011-05-17 11:19

Free infamous is a smart move for Sony. Advertising for the sequel thats due in a few months.
i enjoyed the hell outa the first one looking forward to the 2nd. Running around town shockwaving cars around was never so fun

fixed.. and I agree. Thats marketing gold right there. Original prolly doesn't sell much anymore and they will get tons more publicity / sales from the 2nd title because of this. And afaik I think these publishers offered these games to Sony for the free package. I'm sure Sony paid a flat sum for each title

**Vendog** · 2011-05-17 12:07

So is the store back up or just the details released?

**Doombear** · 2011-05-17 12:11

No store anywhere as far as I know, just PSN. I got an 'official' email about the offer today, but it just mentioned that the "Welcome Back Programme" would be starting "soon".

Whoops and thanks.. guess ill go pre-order lol

**izembo** · 2011-05-17 19:00

yeah, i own them all except dead nation already, platinum'd infamous so no point there, and lbp is moot now that lbp2 is here. maybe ill grab ssd:hd since i have it from gamesharing

**Yeyoking** · 2011-05-17 20:14

I want racket and clank. Damn EU!!!

**Kaisha** · 2011-05-17 20:21

Given Wipeout HD comes with the Fury expansion, I'm wondering if Super Stardust HD includes all of its DLC add-ons also. I never bothered purchasing the latest dlc mode for it, so if I can get that free (even though it only costs $2), more the merrier I guess, otherwise I'll just pick Infamous/LBP1 and GameStop my physical copies for $5 each or something. ;/

Ratchet&Clank:QFB is also friggen short at 3 hours, which isn't much compared to the rest of our offerings. Wouldn't have hurt for variety I guess since Housemarque has two spots taken with both Stardust & Dead Nation.

looking through this thread a little more I see this link:

**Arnwulf** · 2011-05-18 10:08

That didn't take long.
