While I’ll admit, a lot of people have played/owned those games, and that’s fine; I’ll also say this: there are games that I kinda like, and don’t really care to pay for, but will totally accept if it was free. If you have the games already, just trade a couple of ‘em in towards another game you like, and get the free copy from sony; you download it once, it’s yours, you own it, and you can download it AGAIN if you decide you wanna free up the space on your HDD, but considering the dollar to gigabyte ratio on hard drives, you can probably get enough space for a few games so long as you’re not storing entire media catalogs on your ps3.

Well I’m one of the so called minority who hasn’t got any of the titles they’re offering which makes me one very happy panda. Not sure which two I’ll take but I’ll make my mind up when the store comes back on line.

I don’t know about the other titles but I’m sure the main reason sony are offering InFamos as a freebee is because the sequel is just about to hit the stores. Think about it, we’ll give everyone the first one free and just maybe they’ll buy the second installment.

Personally I’m very happy with what Sony are offering. After all we are being given a load of free stuff as an apology for not being able to use a free service for a couple of weeks.

I’ve alreay got all the games I want for PSP but I’d happily pick up Infamous for free. The demo wasn’t too bad, but I found the demo hard to complete, which put me off of it.

I do have one nagging feeling though that Sony might gain for this (other than appealing to the masses over PSN). By getting people to play old games they might gain fans for franchises and in turn increase the sales of the sequels.

So basically people who are loyal and own or have owned these games aren’t entitled to compensation for being loyal and for sony compromising our personal details?

We’re not asking for a total overhaul of the list, just some alternative for us or at least add 3 or so more games to list? thats no different to us just picking too out of the 5 except we have more choice

I’ll get R&C QFB and the Wipeout game, don’t have either of them and will do as freebies. Already got Dead Nation, LBP and Infamous.

Wipeout HD + Ratchet and clank

Everyone already owns the others. I’ve already sold them as well as many of you guys have said.
Can’t wait for inFamous 2 though….

I think its a good gesture.Many people,myself included,will be happy to download these games,and an extra 60 days of PS Plus is more than compensating.Besides if you own all the games already you can afford to pay for what ever games you thought should have being offered.

Am guessing nobody here has

1, Got multiple accounts (77M individual accounts ?).
2, Played a game finished it sold it on
3, Hence high numbers have played offered games.

Nice try :-p

Wouldn’t preowned sales make the number of people who own the game… EXACTLY THE SAME?

If you +1 for every preowned sale, you also -1 for the person who sold it.

Silly Billy.
