So the only games you'd want to play, at no charge, in the entire PS3 catalog are games you've already played? That is profoundly sad.

Well, I suppose they could offer inFAMOUS 2 or Portal 2, but both of those strike me as rather unlikely, considering one just came out and the other isn't out at all yet.

I'll definitely get inFAMOUS, but I haven't heard much one way or the other about the rest of those games. Meanwhile, I don't have a PSP, but this is still a pretty neat deal.

So just make Sony pay Valve for every copy they give away.

How would they "make" Valve do that? Tie Gabe Newell to a treadmill until he relents or suffers a massive heart attack?

Portal 2 isn't even on the PlayStation Store anyway.

Also, I'm convinced Turtlekid needs to try adopting Weegee's "axiom." Because he'd play more games than he does now.

Valkyria Chronicles, Resonance of Fate, Demon's Souls, Nier, Red Dead Redemption, Bayonetta, Star Ocean 4 (Battle system is good, 'kay?), Batman Arkham Asylum, Devil May Cry 4? These are just games in my catalog that I'd recommend.

More power to you if you want to stick to your Kingdom Hearts and your Nathan Drakes, but you should venture out there once and awhile.

Oh yeah, forgot about Arkham Asylum and Red Dead Redemption.

Also there isn't a Kingdom Hearts game on the PS3 yet.

So, uh... when does the Playstation Store actually go up? In Washington, that is? I misinterpreted "PSN is back up" to mean "all of PSN is back up". But hey, at least I got another meager firmware update and a biblical EULA to scroll through!

Or you could play games online, which some might argue is the primary purpose of PSN.

I haven't heard any forecast for when the Store will go up.

EDIT: I take that back. Word on the street is the 24th.

In case anyone aside from me cared, the details for the Asian PSN Welcome Back program went up. Their games offered are vastly different from ours, in some cases for the better:

PS3
The Last Guy
LocoRoco Cocoreccho
Echochrome
Wipeout HD
Hustler King

PSP
What Did I Do To Deserve This, My Lord!? 2
Everyone's Relaxation
Patapon 2
LittleBigPlanet
LocoRoco Midnight Carnival

PlayStation Store still isn't back in any region, though.
