The disastrous intermittency of Playstation Network over the holidays was a big letdown for many Playstation fans, and although the network is currently is in fully working order, Sony still wants to make up for the time and give back to PSN users.
According to the Playstation Blog, Sony has extended all PlayStation Plus subscriptions on the PS4, PS3, and PS Vita for an extra 5 days due to the recent PSN downtime.
In addition to the PS Plus extension, Sony is also offering a one-time 10 percent discount on any goods purchased on the PSN Store. The discount can be applied to all PlayStation Store items, including games, DLC, movies, TV shows, and more.
It’s nothing exceptional, but it shows that Sony wants to help out the PSN users affected by the outage, including those who anxiously awaited to try out their new PS4 on Christmas.
Way too little for all the financial stresses it has caused for everyday people. These machines cost way to much to be taken off line like they were. Also, the offer sucks. I myself have spent so much that this is barely a slap in my face for my continued commitment to Sony.
Lol woah wait, financial stresses? What the Hell are you even on about, man? You don’t seem to understand that the Playstation consoles are not multimedia systems that play games like Microsoft’s consoles, they’re gaming devices that you can optionally use as multimedia devices.
I don’t see where you would have “spent too much” unless you’re one of those geniuses that buys every game they can as soon as they can. Of course something like PS+ seems irrelevant to someone stupid enough to waste money on games before they go on sale for free. Doesn’t take a rocket scientist for that one.
