If you are a PSN user who created your account before April 20th you will be pleased to know that you are eligible to download two free games from the five titles included in Sony’s ‘Welcome Back Package.’ The freebies are listed below:

  • InFamous
  • Quest for Booty

You will also find that you now have a free subscription, yes free subscription to Sony’s ‘PlayStation Plus’ premium download service.

However, the question that still stands is that is all of this enough to win users back? Are you a Sony PSN user, what are your views?

Sony PlayStation Network and PlayStation Store Issues

More issues with Sony’s PSN and PlayStation Store causing a delay on getting back online for users.

imageI’m sad to post that there have been more issues reported with Sony’s PlayStation Network (PSN) and the PlayStation Store, the problem has resulted in users not being able to update their security details, get their free games or use PSN. This isn’t looking good for Sony!

The screen many of you would have seen appear is the one pictured above pointing out to you that there is currently a maintenance issue causing the server to be down. All of the hype last week with the re-launch of the PSN, the chance to update your security details and manage to get your hands on your free games through the PlayStation Store doesn’t look good at all at the moment.

This is what was said in the PlayStation blog: 

“Sony Network Entertainment International (SNEI, the company) will fully restore all PlayStation Network services in the Americas, Europe/PAL territories and Asia, excluding Japan, Hong Kong, and South Korea by the end of this week.”

So, you have a little longer to wait before you can get back online with PSN, update your security details and get your free games whilst Sony fix the security vulnerability. What’s your views on the current issue? Let me know by clicking comments.
