Press Release: Some PlayStation Network and Qriocity Services to be Available This Week
For those of you who didn't already know. (aka no one, but oh well)
I smell the delicious beginnings of a console superiority "discussion". However I feel the need to throw in something vaguely on topic again. Yay.
Also...
Sony Offering Free ‘AllClear ID Plus’ Identity Theft Protection in the United States through Debix, Inc.
and A Letter from Howard Stringer

Press Release: Some PlayStation Network and Qriocity Services to be Available This Week

Just to clarify, this was posted on the day it was released, so everyone knows about it.
Interesting letter however, it's nice they've actually brought in identity theft insurance.

Two free games out of a list of five. Not bad.

[Vito]

mmm i wonder what NA will get.

[Jill4EverSTARS]

Two free games? Which region?

[Vito]

for now only on Europe.

two ps3 games of five.
two psp games of four.

plus we all be getting the 30 days of psn +.

[Stu]

So the speculation begins on what constitutes these "PS3 games". Whether they're retail titles, or just PSN titles, or a mix of the two.

Little Big Planet, Infamous, Mod Racers, Warhawk, MAG...would guess they'll be amongst the choices.

[Jill4EverSTARS]

I'd say they go with the cheapest way possible maybe PSN games

[Vito]

at least one of those will be a somewhat big game.

[WeskerIncarnate]

So Sony realized how shitty it would be to give a month free of a worthless service like PSN+ as compensation for this bullshit. That's good to hear, but doesn't change my views on them...

[Agent_Wong]

Well, the network will be down for a while longer.

I think it's gotten to the point where they should stop these vague updates they should only bother us with important news

[Vito]

I'm really tempted to get a 360 now.

This is getting ridiculous.

I guess it's kinda important since tomorrow will be 1 week since the Japan PR where they said it was going to be another week, so they don't want a swarm of people tomorrow asking. I think their level of updates so far has been reasonable, especially given how much people complained at first that they were slow to even put any info up and also say what had happened.

We all say stupid things when we're angry, so I'll let that slide.
