I'd recommend not trying shit with the welcome back program for like a day or 2, 'cause the PSN Store is probably getting hammered right now and there will be a bunch of errors.

But what if everyone with a PSN account decides to do the same thing? ;)
 
I tried to download INfamous, and I go to the welcome back section and select free game, then it says "A ERROR HAS OCCURED" now it won't let me download either PS3 free game. fuck THIS STUFF! Is anyone else having this problem, and if so, where can we get it fixed or are we justed fucked?
 
Just got error message'd out of one of my PS3 games. I can only imagine how many people are gonna have troubles so I don't even know how to go about fixing this.
 
This shit is supposed to last a month.. no need to spam the servers unless you absolutely need to get your InFamour, LBP, etc on RIGHT NOW.
 
Useful info

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”

+ posted by susan panico // sr. Director, playstation network

we’re so excited to welcome you back to playstation network. With the playstation store back online, we’ve been getting all caught up this week, having launched an abundance of amazing content for download on playstation 3 and playstation portable devices across games, movies, themes and dlc. Today, we’re excited to launch the welcome back program to thank you for your loyalty, and below, we’ve got what you need in order to get access to the included content. So, here’s a list of questions about the program. If you don’t see your question below, mention it in the comments and we’ll do our best to provide an answer. Thanks again for your patience and understanding as we restored the playstation network and qriocity services – your support has meant a lot to us and is greatly appreciated.



q: What’s in the welcome back program?
a: To start, all psn members who had signed up before the outage (april 20, 2011) will be able to select two games for the ps3 and two games for the psp systems.

For ps3 owners, go to the ‘welcome back’ section in the playstation store, and select 2 titles from the following list:
  • dead nation
  • infamous
  • littlebigplanet
  • super stardust hd
  • wipeout hd + fury
for psp owners, go to the ‘welcome back’ section of playstation store on your psp system and select 2 titles from the following list:
  • littlebigplanet (psp)
  • modnation racers
  • pursuit force
  • killzone liberation
select your first game from “game 1”, then return to the welcome back page and go to “game 2” to select your second game out of the remaining choices available. This goes for both ps3 and psp.


in addition, we’re giving access to our premium subscription service, playstation plus, which includes games, huge discounts, exciting exclusives and added features like online storage and automatic downloads, to all psn members for 30 days at no charge, requiring no long term commitment. As with the games above, go to the playstation store and under the ‘welcome back’ section, select ‘playstation plus: 30 days free’, and you’ll be given access to all of the benefits of playstation plus. Note that this will not auto-renew and simply expires 30 days after activation.
Current plus subscribers receive an extra 60 days added to their existing subscription at no charge. For current plus subscribers, no action is needed as the 60 days are automatically added to your subscription.

Playstation network users will also get 100 virtual items in playstation home as a show of appreciation for your patience while home was inaccessible. Additional content is coming soon, including the next addition to the home mansion personal space, and ooblag’s alien casino, an exclusive game.

A selection of “on us” movie rentals are currently available to playstation network customers this weekend only, where video service is available.

Finally, current music unlimited premium subscription members will receive an additional 30 days of premium subscription plus days lost due to the outage.

q: When will i have access to the welcome back program?
a: The content offered as part of the welcome back program is available for download today and will be available through july 3.

q: I have both ps3 and psp. Does this mean i will get 4 games all together?
a: Yes, as long as you were a psn member before april 20, 2011, you’ll be able to receive up to 4 games based on the titles listed above; 2 on each platform.

q: Are there any limitations to the ps3 and psp games we are receiving as part of the welcome back program?
a: None. These games are yours to keep.

q: How long do i have to get into the playstation store and receive my content for welcome back?
a: Access to the welcome back content will be expiring on july 3. Once this date has passed, the welcome back section in the playstation store will be removed.

q: When does the 30 days of my playstation plus access expire?
a: Your playstation plus 30-day access will expire 30 days from the date you activated it in playstation store.

q: When will (insert game here) be published?
a: Look forward to posts over the coming days that will show what content will be available at that point, or coming soon. We’re planning frequent store publishes offering lots of new content for everyone to enjoy.

q: I’m getting 30 days of access to playstation plus; can you refresh my memory on what i get with this service?
a: From the time you activate your 30 days of playstation plus, you’ll be able to download games and game related content, purchase select store items at a discount, and have access to the exclusive features of plus. You’ll also be able to get early access to any plus exclusive demos and priority beta invitations that might be scheduled during your 30 days.

q: Do i get to keep the games in playstation plus forever?
a: Content that is free in playstation plus will not be available after your playstation plus time has expired. However, if you decide to join playstation plus, you’ll have access to all of the content you downloaded during your 30 day access for as long as you are a subscriber.

q: Do i get to keep any games or content i purchased with the playstation plus discount?
a: Yes. Any content you purchase at a discount is yours to keep, regardless of your subscription status.

q: Aside from the games and discounts; does playstation plus offer anything else?
a: Yes! Playstation plus includes the online storage for game saves feature, allowing you to backup treasured game saves or access them from another ps3. In addition, you get the automatic download feature, which automatically updates your 10 most recently played games while the system is in stand-by mode so you don’t have to wait for updates before playing your games.

q: What content will be in playstation plus when i activate my 30 days?
a: Playstation plus content and discounts are regularly updated throughout the month. For up-to-date information on content within playstation plus, please visit the plus homepage.

q: Where can i find the welcome back content in home?
a: The 100 virtual items can be found in the kiosk in home’s central plaza along with two personal spaces – dragon’s lair and the mansion garage. A new game – ooblag’s alien casino – will be released soon (june 2011). This game will be 100% free-to-play. As an added bonus, players that access the ooblag alien casino space will be rewarded an active item version of the ooblag game that can be played in your personal space(s).

Remember, if you didn’t see your question answered above, drop us a line below and we’ll do our best to answer it. Welcome back!

I would assume dling anything over 1g now would he slow as hell. So I would just for now get all the free shit that's not game. Gamerpic or theme would do for now and later, probably 2am when no ones around, then I'll dl the game.
 
Sure enough, error message while attempting to download "free PS3 game 1" and Infamous. Now "free ps3 game 1" option has disappeared completely. Go fuck yourselves, Sony.
 
I'm currently downloading LBP and it will take approx. 50 minutes. Doesn't matter to me how long it takes, I'm going out for a bit and leaving my ps3 on.
 
Spewing errors and I just lost one of my "free" games. I guess I should have expected Sony to try and weasel their way out of this... I guess this is how they did.

Next I try to call them... yep you can't reach anyone... they don't even allow you to hold. :roll:
 
[quote name='Capocci 007']I need to make a new psn id, and I was wondering if I will be able to play all the games I downloaded on my new id.[/QUOTE]

Here's what I did to get around the error messages: activate game 1, then pick the game, then go into your PS Store download history and start the download that way.
 
[quote name='chimpmeister']No.[/QUOTE]

Wrong, whatever games you dl should be playable as long as you leave the original user account connected to the PSN account they were downloaded with on your PS3 user accounts list.

Everyone keep quoting this or add it to the OP so people don't lose their shit.
 
If anyone is having problems. follow these steps after your game is selected:

"If no games appeared for you but you did select “Get Now” on one of the PS3 or PSP Free Game 1 or 2; go to the XMB and under the PlayStation Network column, go to Account Management>Transaction Management>Services List>SCEA Promotions and you should be able to select accordingly."
 
just got dead nation, but ps store won't let me download my second game. i guess i can wait... anyone know where we get the "on us" free movie rentals?
 
Infamous downloading now. Going to wait to try and mess with the other one since it's buggy as hell right now. Thanks for the tips for the workaround, I should have known better than to try and rush the gate for free stuff.

I already own the GOTY LBP. Is it worth trading it in and downloading the vanilla copy? I'm torn between that, Dead Nation, and Wipeout HD.

You may want to wait a few hours to DL any stuff from the Welcome Back program. Right now all it gives you is error messages and the download doesn't activate.
 
I love how people bitch instantly instead of looking for answers. The store is laggy as hell, we all knew this would happen. So yeah the Free Game 1/2 may disappear BUT THERE IS A WAY TO GET IT!!!! For fuck sake this was already posted in this thread too!

Got the memo the first couple of times. What you didn't get the memo is that I get a 80710D36 error when I try to go into Account Management. Total fail.

UPDATE: I will try again in 2 weeks. Maybe then it won't spew all these errors.

I kept on selecting it and I eventually got through. Still can't pick my free game though.
 
I get the same errors too. Again the store is laggy as hell. I wouldn't doubt it if 100's of thousands of people are trying to access the store all at this moment so instead of bitching about FREE stuff and complaining that Sony is made of fail when ANY online presence would suffer in a situation like this. XBL has gone down/been lag heavy when big games have come out. The only things I can think of that MIGHT not suffer like this is google.com and Steam, but I doubt they are immune from it either.

Thanks for the advice but at this point I plan to sit it out for a week or so.
 
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DOWNLOAD.

I got locked out of one of my free PS3 games. I'm really ticked off right now.

I repeat, WAIT FOR THIS. SONY IS GETTING HIT HARD AND THERE ARE ERRORS EVERYWHERE.
 
Sucks for those of us who got the $110 ps3 refurb dealie at micro center. I don't suppose anyone has a spare PSN account that they created before april 2011 and never used? :p

[quote name='Saix_XIII']I get the same errors too. Again the store is laggy as hell. I wouldn't doubt it if 100's of thousands of people are trying to access the store all at this moment so instead of bitching about FREE stuff and complaining that Sony is made of fail when ANY online presence would suffer in a situation like this. XBL has gone down/been lag heavy when big games have come out. The only things I can think of that MIGHT not suffer like this is google.com and Steam, but I doubt they are immune from it either.[/QUOTE]

Laggy is one thing. Blocking me with error messages a different thing. One allows me to do something, the other doesn't. As for XBL, it has been down for a few hours at most (and it happen once, maybe twice total since Live started) and when they gave us Undertow, I could still DL it the day they released it for free. I can't remember ever that I received an error message on XBL. Just saying. XBL didn't ever go down for a week, let alone the month or so PSN did. Again, just saying.

But hey this is a forum people bitch about stuff all the time. The Free stuff is due to Sony giving out my not-so-free information. So it really isn't free...
 
I don't see the Playstation Plus 30 days at all. Anyone see it?

Also, if I download these PSP games will they transfer to the NGP/Vita when it come out?
 
[quote name='Thrinn']You may want to wait a few hours to DL any stuff from the Welcome Back program. Right now all it gives you is error messages and the download doesn't activate.[/QUOTE]
Or even a few days. I could imagine PSN is swamped and well it might be fucking hell until the downloads start to die down. Either way I will try later on, hopefully with luck.
