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.

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.

I really, really like Dead Nation, it's fucking typical that 3 out of the 5 games, i've already fucking got. It'll be R&C and Wipeout for me, simply because I have no other choice.

On the subject of R&C, i'm currently playing through "A crack in time" and i'll be honest, it's fucking superb. I was dubious, i'd played a couple of R&C demo's and I wasn't keen, but this one's really grabbed me.

I guess over here in the states Super Stardust HD replaces Ratchet and Clank. Guess I'll go for inFamous and Little Big Planet even though I have beaten them both, still solid games and worth another play. Fucking shame, Ratchet in Time was a great game and I would like to give the franchise another try. Curse you Eurofuckers!

So the games are

LBP - everyone has played or owned at some point
Infamous - shite and again nearly everyone with a ps3 has owned
Wipeout HD - been out for about 2 years.... already have it.
Ratched and Clank :boring
Dead Natioon :boring

Already got LBP
Never played Infamous so might get this
Never played Wipeout and don't really care for it
Ratchet and Clank? Is this the first one? Played it years ago and loved it, might get again
Dead Nation? Never played or heard of it.

So R&C and Infamous for me probably then.

Was really hoping for Warhawk. Ah well, Wipeout and R&C will do. How long is Quest for Booty, isn't it more like an expansiona pack than a full game? Also, if you haven't played Infamous, get it. Brilliant game.

It is a good game, a little childish and kinda limited but it is absolutely beautiful graphics wise. Its a shame they didn't offer Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time, one of the best games I have played on PS3.

Yeah, between us we got 3. A 40gb a 60gb and an 80GB (got the 80 cause the 60gb was acting up). I have the 40gb but takes forever to connect and often fails but my dads zooms through and is fine and the internet is fine when I use the laptop.
