Downloading Super Stardust HD right now. Got a couple of errors while navigating the store, which scared me, but the game is downloading.

I recommend that nobody redeem the free content right now. I'm getting error messages all over the place, and my "free game 2" option disappeared without me actually getting the game. Apparently I can recover it, but avoid this mess if you can; I'm sure Sony will sort things out soon.

The download times are long, too. I mean I know it's an entire game, but still, it seems long.

I so need a bigger HDD to get these games Im a gimp with a launch fatty and 20gb drive in there a) make sure you get the games anyway. You don't have to keep them on the hard drive, but if you don't get them before July 3rd, you will lose your chance. Once you've downloaded them once, you'll be able to download them again in the future. b) Upgrade your dang hard drive man! It's cheap and easy to do. Even a non-hardware modding fool like myself can do it. |

Just a helpful tip:
I no longer have the option to choose my free Welcome Back games. What can I do?
If you navigate away from the Welcome Back section of the store without choosing your free games or exit the store completely you may need to follow the below in order to choose and download your free games.
On your PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Portable navigate to the PlayStation Network icon on the XMB
Log into your PlayStation Network account and choose Account Management > Transaction Management > Services List
Choose "PlayStation Network Promotions" from the list of services displayed
Select either "PS3 Free Games" or "PSP Free Games" and then choose "Select Content"

Still had to navigate through constant errors when I did, but it worked eventually. |

It took six hours for my Infamous to download, though. I'm going to wait until it dies down a little before I download my other free stuff.

Got Wipeout HD and Dead Nation.
I probably should have waited until later this week to access the store, but I saw that Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls was up for sale and I figured since I'm getting Wizardry, I'll get my free games.
So many errors messages the server was just packed yesterday.
