Now that certain PSN services have been restored and you’re once again enjoying online gaming, it seems a good time to confirm what is being offered as part of the Welcome Back programme.

- Existing PlayStation Plus subscribers will be given 60 days free subscription.

- For existing Music Unlimited subscribers, you will be given 30 days free subscription.

- We are working on a Welcome Back offer in PlayStation Home and will share that when it is confirmed.

I would like to thank all of the developers and publishers involved in this programme for their support in making this happen. We certainly couldn’t have done it without you.

You will be able to access this content once PlayStation Store comes back online and we are doing everything we can to make that happen as soon as possible.

Thank you for your support and keep checking back on the blog for more information.

Already beat Infamous + Littlebigplanet, nothing good for me.

So.... assuming my PS3 will ever let me dl the update, which game should I get? I platinum'd InFamous and I'm getting LBP, cause clearly those are the two best. I'm leaning towards Dead Nation or get the dl of InFamous and sell my copy. Wipeout and Super Stardust look dumb. I'd have considered R&C, but it is EU only it seems.

Bitch ass PS3 needs to stop sucking at connecting to the internetz.

edit: probably won't get shit for InFamous, now that I think of it, cause everyone will probably be selling it and no one buying cause its free now.

Download the update from the Playstation.com site. Put it on USB then put the usb in the ps3 and update from usb.

What are the odds they don't change their privacy policy/settings just a few weeks after Anonymous threatens to kill FB?

[ItsSeflol]

I really hope Facebook dies.

I really hope Facebook dies.

truly a plague on mankind

[Mrdude]

I concur

Facebook if for having your business aired over the internets. It's like gossip addicts crack. No wonder it's popular. Girls like it the most, some dudes are into gossip also.

[Bodycount]

Really the only thing it's good for is nailing some chick you used to bang again.
Once in a while it's ok to meet new chicks to bang but you most likely know her already and just never got around to banging her before.
Also they HAVE to be selling your information to conglomerates, nothing is really free ever.

[Ploid]

The problem with doing that is Facebook will air your business and you get caught easily.

[HawtMegan's Wall]
Megan- "Tonight wus awesome, hooked up with BG finally. It was a 7.1"
Tim- "Megan, I thought we were exclusive"

[SaraOnly's Wall]
Laura- "Sara sry 4 posting this on your wall, but there is a Megan chick that sed she hooked ^ wit ur man."

Mom- "Oh honey... I knew he was trouble."

Dad- "I'm going to kill him!"

Sara- "This can't be happening to me"

Bodycount- "I can explain"

[Bodycount]

Ploid has blown holes in the good uses for facebook, now idk what it's for.

[ItsSeflol]

The only thing I use Facebook for is finding out when bands go on tour.

[Yorke]

thats why you photoshop cats in the place your beer bottles go.

and let's be honest, unless you're like 12 no one goes around saying who they hooked up with anymore.

ps, I fucked oprah

You'd be surprised. Maybe not a cool person, but a person that would love to rub stuff in someone's face and ikes drama would.
