That's their plan. But they also said they'd have the gaming features back over a week ago, so who really knows?
At least I'm able to get online now. I downloaded the update yesterday and was able to sign in this morning.

Wow, umm... so nothing I care about.
I like inFamous, and Little Big Planet is okay... but I own both of them already. Not interested in the other games.
Movie rentals? Music service? Pass. All of that stuff sounds more like the "free trials" of services that plague us from countless other quarters, anyway. Just a way to hook you in and then forget to cancel the stupid thing.
I hear they'll be offering free identity theft insurance. Just give me that and leave me alone, Sony... your "welcome back" makes me sad.

2 free games isn't horrible, but I suspect there are quite a few people like you who have a)played and are done with all those games or b) not interested in any of the vast selection of 5 games. For that I must say weak Sony. Why not just offer 25 bucks worth of whatever you want from PSN store. Aren't those games like 10 bucks each to download?

woohoo. I was finally able to shoot people again. 
I might try little big planet. Is it any good. I have only had my PS3 for 2 months. So I have no clue about the rest of those games.

Agreed. I would rather have had some money for DLC. JMO

LBP is a fun little game, i got the GOTY edition and it came with all the user created levels and I'd recommend d/l'ing those levels, that's where the appeal for the game is.
inFamous is a good game, great story, gameplay, probably the best game from that list
Dead Nation was a disappointment from me, unless you are playing with 3 other people online(it's hard to find people) it's kind of lame.
I'll be forced to grab Super Stardust and Wipeout since i have the other ones.

Thirded. A store credit would have made much more sense. Even if it was only enough money to buy one game instead of two, at least it would be one that I actually want.
