Should Sony Compensate Us for their Downtime?
As the topic says. I think wee're in order of a free voucher as compensation for their downtime. I know PSN is free but some of us are Play Station+ subscribers. Wee bought some games for the soul purpose of playing online like COD. that or the story of the game is to short like in portal 2 which recently came out and I've yet to play online co-op since the server went down 2 days after its release. Since their first update about the servers been down they said it would only take 1 or 2 full days for the severs to be back online and now wee're on day 5. Not to forget that most of my psp games are digital. Hell it doesn't have to be a full game, I'll take a mini as compensation or a public apology. Anything would do as long as its something.

What do you think?

RE: Should Sony Compensate Us for their Downtime?
To be perfectly honest... I feel completely indifferent about this situation.  Mainly because I'm not an Online Gamer, and I basically use PSN to browse the Store and download games and such.

I can understand why some people are upset about it though (especially if they are online gamers or Playstation Plus subscribers).

Do I think there should be compensation?  Well, compensation is usually given when something is lost.  The only thing that is lost in this situation is days of online gaming.  I could be wrong...

I will not argue that some form of compensation would be nice, but would Sony do it?  Probably not...

EDIT: I only voted "yes" just because :P

I think they should give something to Plus subscribers, maybe something like...a free PSN game? Although they'll probably extend subscriptions by how many days PSN was down.

People never used to expect something every time something went wrong now people do all the time

I know what you mean. I fund their company aswell because their products are awesome, but when they support a digital only device like the psp Go. I own 16 games + the free one I got when I bought my Go, 11 ps1 titles, and 4 minis, so I only think its fair for them to keep their servers up an running so that I can retrieve my digital content at will.(also can a mod fix my spelling on the poll, thanks)

If you are refering to the "wee", that wasn't you it was the word filter
