[quote name='chingychink']Woo thanks for the credit sony, but uhh did anyone hit a glitch where they got 2 messages from Sony, redeemed one and the other wasn't valid anymore after redeeming the first one, or it said it's not correct? I know I spent $100 during the period and those are my two codes. Shoot I hope I didn't mess this up, otherwise I'm gonna whine to Sony...this is merited since I only got half my reward...I guess.[/QUOTE]

Your credit should be in one code. That's how it was for me.
 
Has anyone gotten an email? I only have vita so I can't get the message.
Edit: Sorry I didn't notice the replies above.
 
[quote name='AkariK']I got no email and no psn message :([/QUOTE]

No credit here, was expecting $10. Where's the best place/email address to inquire with Sony?
 
Got a question if anyone can help:

A lot of the Hot Shot games are on sale and it got me thinking since I liked the simple 80s/90s golf games but want something portable (PSP of course)...

Is a Hot Shot game a good place to go or is there a better game or series for just getting good courses and basic golf gameplay without too much filler (mostly gameplay or a slow experience)?
 
I am dumb, I accidentally deleted all my received messages! :cry:

Anyone know if the e-mail will contain the voucher code as well? Or is it only available from the XMB message. If it is the latter, is there any way to get the voucher sent again, or am I seriously screwed!?

Edit: Problem fixed!

Got my credit, time for some Guacamelee action! What a lucky break for Drinkbox studios to release their game this week... then again it doesn't hurt that the game itself looks fantastic! :)

If you get Hot Shots Golf: Open Tee 1 or 2, you should be satisfied. I already own the UMD version of the first Hot Shots: Open Tee, but I bought it for the $4.99 price on my PSP Go. I figure I'll just transfer my previous game saves over and continue from where I last stopped. But, yes, it's a well-paced golf game that's probably more comparable to Mario Golf than Tiger Woods. A good deal of customization, too, once you start beating the courses.
 
Sigh, I haven't received my credit via email and I am unable to access my PS3 since I'm on vacation. Shot support an email to see if they can help me out. I woke up really excited today to use my credit. ._.
 
http://community.us.playstation.com...For-Every-50-Promotion-Problems/td-p/40131947

Messages to your PS3 via XMB message should have arrived on 4/12 on or around 11pm PST. There should also be a followup email going to your email that is tried to your SEN / PSN account today, 4/13 around 11am PST.

If you haven't received your reward yet, don't worry, we'll work to get you taken care of.

For starters, please post here if you haven't received it yet:

http://community.us.playstation.com...ollar-credit-for-march-spend-50/td-p/40061761

On Monday morning, I'll work with our partners to review the issue and ensure that everyone is taken care of, regarldess of whether you posted in the thread above, or not. Your responses there will just help me get an understanding of any possible issues.

I've been planning on getting Guacamelee once I got my credit, but I ended up being about 40 cents short. Damn. Looks like a great game.
 
I'm still waiting for the $20 credit for registering my Vita since I didn't spend over $50 in March.

Hopefully that'll arrive soon as well.

Awesome - thanks!

Took a brief look at Tiger Woods and that simulator style is not what I want at all. I'll take another good look at both PSP Hot Shots, the PS3 bundle on sale in case I decide on more, and maybe Pangya for PSP and see where it goes!

If I may ask again, are these games "if you like one you'll probably like the others"?

Yes, they don't stray very far from the core mechanics that the first game featured. Get Open Tee 2 if you want one for your PSP.
 
A huge part of me wants to get Guacamelee with the $20 credit I got from this month and the previous month but I'm afraid that it may eventually end up for free on PS+ or at a bigger discount. With the backlog I have, it makes me afraid to bite.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']http://www.twitch.tv/smashpad

Guacamelee! live stream begins in ten minutes. Check it out to see why you might want to spend your cashback money on it.[/QUOTE]

Will watch, thanks.

I intend to buy it, just not until the inevitable 7.50 drop, whenever that may be. Backlog's still pretty big.

Looking forward to playing this though!

I just found out about this vita promo and the site says it doesn't end until may, but it says my psn id is not valid. Am I missing a step or something?
 
Got my $10 voucher. Normally Id wait for a further/inevitable discount, but since its almost free with the promo Guacamelee seems like a no-brainer, especially to support small studio original IPs.

It's definitely a "NO BRAINER" unless you hate Metroidvania games or Mexicans! I bought it yesterday and it's awesome.

What are the details on this? Where do we register? Thanks.

So if you like Metroidvania games get this guacamole (whatever) game?

How is the difficulty? And more importantly, how frequently can you save?
 
[quote name='eldergamer']So if you like Metroidvania games get this guacamole (whatever) game?

easy and constantly.
 
[quote name='eldergamer']So if you like Metroidvania games get this guacamole (whatever) game?

Definitely. It's not too hard, though I'd suggest making sure you get the hang of the grappling move and the finishers you can buy in the shop.The platforming puzzles involving the light/dark mechanic are the hardest things I've seen so far, which are at the end of the video when it's live. They can be very tricky if you don't have a great handle on the controls.

It saves every single time you pass one of the table shops that are all over the place and they do a great job with checkpoints so you don't lose much if any progress when you die.

I also have to add that the cross-controller support with the Vita works amazingly well. It basically works as well as the Dual Shock 3 but with a screen on it that also lets you see the map at all times.
 
So, weird question, I got my $10 credit message but I can't click the link. I can't even highlight the link portion of the message. Anybody else have this problem?

so basically, the PS3 with a Vita can now do just about everything a Wii U can?

Not to be hatting on Nintendo, but this kinda kills my interest in their console now.

Anyway, Guacamelee sounds awesome, but I didn't spend enough to get a credit, and I just have a feeling this will be on PS+ in a couple months. Either that, or I'll do what a few others are doing and buy it when it's 50% off;)
 
[quote name='Tronny']So, weird question, I got my $10 credit message but I can't click the link. I can't even highlight the link portion of the message. Anybody else have this problem?[/QUOTE]
You should've also gotten an email with the code, so you can just redeem that in the store to get the same thing.

Aghhh... PlayStation credit card rewards, I am disappoint.
 
You know, I thought a couple years ago I couldn't beat Borderlands for $5 on the 360 (thanks local Walmart), then I got the complete version on Steam for like $7 and now the base version on PS3 for essentially $1. I suppose it more or less it counts as an apology for releasing A:CM.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Yes, they don't stray very far from the core mechanics that the first game featured. Get Open Tee 2 if you want one for your PSP.[/QUOTE]

Thanks! :) I'll probably get Tee 2 to start for the PSP but haven't looked at gameplay footage of them all yet. Still sounds fun!
 
I bought PSN Plus card and redeemed it but I guess that doesn't count? I also bought a couple 10 dollar games but I didn't get any message about anything.
 
[quote name='JiveT']I bought PSN Plus card and redeemed it but I guess that doesn't count? I also bought a couple 10 dollar games but I didn't get any message about anything.[/QUOTE]
You had to spend money from your PSN wallet, not redeem a code for PS+ subs.
 
Picked up Borderlands Bundle, Guacamelee, and Locoroco Cocoreccho with my refund. :ps3: quickly becoming my preferred console over :360:

Also, Soldner-X games worth it for a shooter fan?
 
Thanks to the cag who said to backup your 'The Cave' save before updating.
I did so, updated and yeah no save found. so i just restored my cloud save.
Thank you again and as a future note to others.

"Buy" a $10 Sony Entertainment card instead - does the same exact thing, but is not technically the same item on Sony Rewards.
