Right, you’ve waited long enough. Nearly two months later and after a few delays the PlayStation Network is finally back online.
To entice users back to the network Sony has launched their “Welcome Back” program.
“We’re so excited to welcome you back to PlayStation Network. With the PlayStation Store back online, we’ve been getting all caught up this week, having launched an abundance of amazing content for download on PlayStation 3and PlayStation Portable devices across games, movies, themes and DLC.”

PlayStation 3 owners will be able to download two of these games,
PSP owners will be able to select two of these games,
These will be full versions of the game with no limitations – and if you have both a PS3 and a PSP that means that you will get four free games.
To download you r games all you have to do is,
- Log on to PlayStation®Store
- Click on the “Welcome Back” tab in the upper left menu

- Within the category, click on the “Welcome Back Free PS3™ Game 1” product and “Get Now”

Sony has reported that due to huge demand for the offers their network has been running slow over the weekend, which isn’t surprising when you consider over 42 million people were locked out of their accounts for so long. If you get an error all you can do is try again at a later point.
The offers will be available until July 3. More details about them are available here.
