Today, Nick Caplin – Head of Communications, SCEE - posted an update about a couple PSN issues. As I'm sure most of you know, Sony is planning on giving it's users some sort of content in order to make up for the loss of the PSN. Nick Caplin shared a few more vague details on this matter.

Both Kazuo Hirai and Sir Howard Stringer have stated that we will be offering identity theft protection for those affected by the malicious attack on PlayStation Network and many of you may have seen the details of the service available in North America.
As I have explained previously, creating a similar offering for the many countries within the SCEE region is a very complicated process. Each country has a different way of handling identity theft; some offer relatively sophisticated services whilst others are much more modest.
We are currently in the process of identifying how we manage this situation and once the programme is ready to launch, we will provide details of exactly which services are available in each country and explain how to sign up. We hope to do this early next week.
Also, look out for more information on the rest of our Welcome Back program, including which free content you will be eligible for. We will be offering PSN users the opportunity to select two PS3 games from a list of five, as well as offering PSP users the opportunity to choose two games from a list of four. We will let you know exactly what games are available very soon.
Please be assured that we are continuing to work around the clock to have some PlayStation Network and Qriocity services restored and will provide you with specific details shortly.

It seems as if they are offering two full free games as well now. Hopefully, this will be in addition to what I've posted You must login or register to view this content..

In my opinion they should take as long as they should . Then we & sony no that it's not going to happen again .
Because of this, I Have payed £80 on Socom , And can't even play it because of the stupid attack what them idiots/idiot done.
I Hope they catch him and put him away for life .

It's a bit shameful to point the finger at Sony for this mess, don't you think? It was those no life hackers who are truly responsible. They were root of the cause, not Sony. PSN is a free service, so for me, it doesn't mean much. The only thing I miss is those late night online COD sessions with some friends, but hey, when PSN is back up, I can get back to it. If you have PSN+, then that's a problem. But I see that Sony is offering a month of free PSN+, so those with it who missed out for the time being get their month back. Anyhow, I don't mind waiting for the PSN to come back online as my life doesn't revolve around it

Not got Uncharted 2 yet . I Heard it's pretty Intense . I Bought Crysis 2 and Socom the other day . Crysis campaign ain't that good .
Socom is the game I'm gagging to play .
But I have to admit that I'm a big trophy hunter . And Will spend hours getting trophys
.
. Let's hope that these games will be good, instead of giving us two shitty games.
