...I got this back in 2011. I got Dead Nation for free. Are they doing it again? Do I get another free game?

I thought Sony already gave us 2 free games because of this hack dubbed the "Welcome Back" package. I got Dead Nation and Super Stardust HD from it.

If the link posted above works then i'll get Rain as it's the only game I don't have from the list.

Apparently they took away the Wipeout HD they gave me. No idea why, just noticed I didn't own it once when I tried to play it.

im just curious to how many people have unwittingly given an anonymous group their PSN account information, from a web page that has alarm bell ringing all over from links and downloads which look very amateurish to what looks like the correct login Sony page, as i have not been emailed from Sony about another claim for the 2011 outage after claiming a free month of PS+ and 2 free games why would any claim be valid today, 3 years later!

Is this official? Seemed a bit like scam when I received the email, espially considering I received it to my old email address instead of the one I currently have associated with my PSN account.

Also if you don't know we take free games back then, but the ps plus does not exist don't you think why we take 3 months plus form 2011 hack from a servise does not exist? You are responsible from people click this fake site and lose the personal information
