You've been gone since the end of May? Where have you been?

I left PA May 7th and didn't bring my ps3 for obvious reasons and returned July 5th

LOL. Nice friend.

Wow I'm a tard.

So I called Sony and they told me I could of got everything since I was playing on my brother's ps3. This is silly because in the welcome back email it says absolutely NOTHING about getting our compensation from other PS3's.

I was under the impression that it had to be YOUR ps3 in order to redeem the two free games and PS+. So anyways they are going to look into my account and make a decision on whether or not I will get my stuff.

Dude, I thought that was common knowledge. You can sign into any PS3 with your info.

It would be cool if they help you out but I know I have not had a great experience with Sony customer support.

Turns out I'm in a kind of similar situation as Guido now. Not that anyone woukd feel bad for me because I own so many games. I'm not sure if I'm more angry with Sony or my PS3 brethern (I'm looking hard at JayDiz and Knubb) for not letting a motherfucker knkw that Stardust HD came with the co-op expansions. I downloaded Wipeout because it clearly said that it included the Fury expansion that I didn't have. I wasted nh other download on inFamous on the small hopes that I could play it on the Vita at some point. JayDiz and Knubb tell me on the podcast that Stardust has online co-op which I didn't remember it having way back when I bought it at launch. They tell me it came packaged with it or may have been an update. I decided to fire it up earlier and since I haven't played it in ages I needed an update. Online co-op? Nope. Still just couch co-op. I checked the store and the online modes are like $8. Booooooo Sony, booooooo! Nowhere did it mention that add-on at all or I would've downloaded that shit.

I played multiple times under my DDRGuido name on other Ps3's. Just didn't know I could download my games via other ps3's. I wish a pop up would came up or something :/

I think I'll be getting Back to the Future, Shank, and/or Scott Pilgrim.

 

[Buzzman]

Ima buy Scott Pilgrim. With plus its less then $5. I get to keep that game once Plus runs out right?

 

[KNUBB]

Yes you get to keep it. Only ones you don't keep are the free ones. I'm probably gonna get Pixeljunk shooter 2. Every Pixeljunk game has been awesome. Eden is a potheads dream. Crazy colors plus awesome music make that game AMAZING.

 

[padman59]

Yup. You keep anything you pay for.

 

[JayDizzle]

Pac-Man DX, Pixeljunk and Back to the Future are keepers with Plus.

I heard Shank was a decent one-off and if you had a buddy, the co-op was alright as well.

 

[Twigg4075]

A lot of good games on sale next week.

I'll probably pick up BTTF. I have the others. I might pick up Pacman even though I have it on 360. It's so good.

 

[Twigg4075]

Anyone on Twitter that wants to do me a favor, please spam the shit out of @Playstation about their shitty customer service. I swear they never want to do anything to make their customers happy. Does $10 mean that much to you Sony? I love their products, games, and for the most part, their business practices. But their customer service sucks dick.

I called to find out of their is anything tehy can do about me getting screwed out of the Super Stardust HD add-ons that were apparently included in the Welcome Back package download of the game, but was not communicated ANYWHERE. After being transferred a few times and being on hold for quite some time, I'm told by a supervisor that even though I've spend hundreds upon hundred of dollars on the PS Store alone, their isn't any way they can even give me a voucher code for the add-ons. Unreal.

Yet you can call a company like Amazon and tell them that a cd you ordered has a scratch in the case and they will refund the full purchase price without batting an eye.

Yes I know it's $10, but it's the principle. This isn't how you treat one of your best customers. I don't care what business you're in.

Limbo coming July 19

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/08/limbo-surfacing-on-psn-july-19/

Playdead is celebrating Limbo's first birthday by giving all of us a present -- a PSN release date for the gruesome yet gorgeous indie darling.

Limbo will be creepy-crawling onto PSN July 19 in the United States, July 20 in Europe and at a to-be-announced date in Japan. The Limbo soundtrack, which would be great for overnight, solo camping trips in the middle of Dead Man's Woods, will be released Monday, July 11, due to popular demand. Playdead's Dino Patti finished his announcement on the PlayStation Blog with the promise (or threat) of a "little extra secret we have in store for you..."

 

[~Chance~]

Limbo was a fucked up game. In a good way tho

 

[padman59]

If you missed the deadline to get your free year of identity theft protection, it's been extended until the end of July.

for those of you with PLUS make sure to download MediEvil (its free); if you can take the fact that it doesnt have amazing graphics (its a ps1 game) it was a great platformer for its time.
