for wipeout, i would also recommend playing in first person. normally i can't stand racers in first person, but with wipeout it can be helpful. also, this doesn't have to do with playing better but, i would recommend using the use your own music option. the normal soundtrack is awesome for sure, but it's really awesome to be able to play to your own favorite jams.

I like how the tv shows a different genesis game being played on it every day. That's pretty cool. I saw Comix Zone on there, Streets of Rage 2, Sonic and Golden Axe

Dead Nation seems to be the best of the PS 3 games I got. Infamous has kind of lost my interest with it's been there, done that gameplay and very unrealistic NPC characters and LittleBigPlanet has really awkward jumping mechanics that I don't like. It just feels all wrong. Dead Nation is a good, solid, old school action game though and gets the mood, look and feel of a zombie movie really well

y'know, same here. But it's more because I've had so many other games going at once.

Really? I only saw Sonic on the Tv. I tried to see what the cases on the desk were but I could only make out Altered Beast and Sonic...

Just keep checking, it's not a static theme. The background changes, very cool. It takes a lot for me to get rid of my Batman:Arkham Asylum theme but this Sega one is very cool

So, I'm curious. Does anyone here think the free games made the month of no PSN worth it?

For me it was. I only really used PSN for occasional matches of CoD4. Now I also use it for occasional matches of Wipeout HD. More than a fair trade-off I would say. Also, Dead Nation is OK.
I feel old when talking to anyone my age yet too inexperienced to effectively talk to anyone older. Life is grand that way.

I think it was. I got to catch up on some older games with no PSN to distract me. I've been wanting to try out Imfamous for awhile and now I got it for free. I do agree and say that Dead Nation is pretty good. I wouldn't have known about it if PSN didn't go out.
