CAGiversary!
We wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your participation in the PlayStation®Rewards Beta, which is ending on March 31st. Your feedback helped us understand the kinds of things that make you feel appreciated and valued.

Based on what we learned, we have decided the program is not ready to roll out to the public in April as originally planned. But rest assured, we will continue to thank loyal and devoted customers like you with innovative offerings.

In the meantime, to show how much we appreciated your participation, we made you a special and exclusive PlayStation® T-shirt. This limited edition shirt will be mailed to beta testers who have reached either Select, Pro or Legendary status by March 31, 2011.

And here I was thinking I was doing it for nothing but a few avatars.

I still have about 2/3 to go before I hit legendary. I stopped caring when I kept buying stuff from PSN but never seeing that fucking bar move.......At some point it's just a guess game as to whats going to boost your progress. The only time I saw it jump was when I bought ME2 from the PSN store......after that....nothing...... and I know I've dumped more the $60 on games, wallpapers, dynamic themes, avatars and other DLC after I bought ME2.

i never got past the first level no matter what i bought on psn or new games i bought from the store it never seemed to change. on top of that all those challenges they tell you to do even when i did them some of them didnt register.

oh well i guess i finally reached select status tonight got a code to dl some stuff kinda odd it took that long but oh well something is better than nothing.

I just kept doing what I was doing already(aka not buying tons of overpriced shit from the Playstation store n playing games) and I made it to Select status.

The shirt will probably be too small for my fat ass anyway, but I'll take a freebie from Sony for the hell of it.

I still have an armband n a lanyard from the Gamer's Advisory Panel days.
 
I was almost to Pro. I didn't change my habits really. I bought some stuff and downloaded a bunch of demos and tried them. I tried some of the "quests" most of the time I saw hardly any progress at all.
I did get an email about the Tshirt. I'm betting it'll be a large or xlarge... probably will end up being a sleep shirt for me. Still a free shirt is a free shirt!
 
Last I looked nothing was updating for me. Can you still get into your account and see what you made it to?
 
They're supposed to require people to agree to the new terms for their switchover to SNEA today, so that may why you're having issues logging in or whatever.

I tried, they closed up shop for good.

I was not able to load the site since the email went out, but like I posted above - I made Pro level after the email went out and the site went down.
 
I needed about 10% to hit legendary. I had bought new psn games and disc games and it never gave me legendary status. I'm tempted to call Sony and request a code lol.
 
I didn't know it was ending the 31st or else I would have checked to see if anything updated then. I don't think I made it into anything as the only thing I bought on the PS3 and played was GT5 and some dlc for MAG. I really can not think of anything else I bought and played. I have some games that I have not been able to play yet due to the lack of time.
 
I just hit Pro status, so they're definitely still tracking progress. Probably old news now to some of you, but figured I'd mention it here.
 
House Party sent me an email about some kind of playstation rewards programs last night. Wasn't invited to the one you guys are discussing so I'm not sure what the differences are. Figured I'd throw that info out there though, keep an eye out for an email if interested
 
Never got a House Party invite. Never signed up for that one, I've heard about it though.

Anyone who made it to Select, Pro and Legendary all get some kind of personalized shirt.
 
[quote name='sendme']How do you know you just hit Pro? I tried to check mine and could not find it on the site.[/QUOTE]

Sony sent me an email letting me know it'd be the last batch of freebies I'd get for getting the new rank. I wrote up a little article about it here -> http://gamernetworking.co.cc/?p=53
 
Check your mail box folks!

That shit better be size XXL for me. Watch it be like a medium or some shit.:cry:

Then again, I wonder if I changed my address back too late. I had my address as 1313 Mockingbird Lane in Delaware cuz I didn't wanna be receiving what was largely junk mail anymore from Sony.
 
I got an XL, and it's a little wider then a normal XL. I'm sure everyone is gonna get the same size.

I'm curious as to see if other people got other colors of this thing. The only reason I mention it is because on the Playstation page you can see someone wearing a red one.
 
Hopefully mine did not come on Friday because mail man completely misdelivered mail here. I live in 531-D and got 501-D's mail. They just got junk mail but maybe if I'm lucky they got my mail. I suppose I should check with them to see if they did. Whoever got my mail definitely got my Netflix disc. Hopefully I didn't miss anything else important like this shirt (but not like it will fit anyway). :???:

Well, if you ever see someone running around the complex with a new PS3 shirt I'm sure you'll know who got it.

When has a free t-shirt giveaway ever been Medium? Every free t-shirt I've ever received in my life has been the size of a fucking bed sheet.

I'm sure if my extra wide XL Rewards shirt comes in the mail this week, it will get tossed into the pile of other unwearable free swag t-shirts I have.

Thanks for the free grill cover, Sony....

Funny because its true.
 
I have an autographed shirt coming signed by High Voltage Software and the Destructiod MashTactics crew.

It's going in the closet with the rest of my company branded shirts as well.

I don't expect to get one but now if I do get a package in the mail I know what it is. I don't know what status I hit with the program because every time I looked it never was updated so I stopped giving a damn. I know if I hit anything it would have only been select.
 
I got mine in the mail today. As expected it fit like a sausage casing on my fat ass, so maybe I'll use it to wax the car or something.:lol:

Plus the fact it's a black shirt and it's almost summer here means I won't likely wear it till next fall/winter anyway, even if I did manage to squeeze into it somehow.
 
I got mine today! I'm shocked it took so many days after the first person received one here. For the U2 shirts I was in the first batch and I figured that would be the same for this shirt since I live close to Foster City. This time it came from Santa Monica so maybe that has something to do with it.

Are they all Black with Blue lettering? It was suggested that they might be different depending on your status. I was only Select, by the way.

I was Pro and got the same shirt.

Mine's going up on eBay.
 
I was Pro. And I was also under the impression we where getting different shirts based on our status. Oh, well. Free shirt is better then nothing.

Oh wait sorry, grill cover. LOL
 
I got mine the other day. I think it's pretty weak all we got was a t-shirt, not to mention it's in Japanese. Not to say I'm not cool with getting a t-shirt (I'll probably wear it when i fail to do laundry for weeks at a time), I'd just prefer to get something gaming related.

As for the program itself, I guess it's a good idea but they should reward you more for playing games or even forum activity as opposed to psn purchases. The way they had it weighted in the beta they might as well just make it a program for a PS themed Sony credit card.
 
I got a black and blue shirt. I was completely shocked since I changed my address to a fake one after the Lara Croft GOL sale, and because my status never reported that I made the first tier, even though I fully believed that I surpassed it. Maybe this might help other people that didn't think they made the prerequisites
