Sony Pushes PSN Exclusives with 'Only On PSN' Program

Sony is continuing to take the initiative to bolster its PlayStation Network following the disastrous hack earlier this year. Not only did Sony add another $20 million this summer to a Pub Fund it started a couple years ago, but today the company announced a new "Only On PlayStation Network" program to stress its flow of exclusive gaming content.

Starting on October 4, every Tuesday in the month will see several new exclusives on PSN, including Pub Fund titles like Eufloria and Okabu, as well as inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood and PixelJunk Sidescroller. And the program will also feature a selection of "rare classic games" added to the store on October 4, including God Hand, GrimGrimoire, Maximo: Ghosts to Glory, Odin Sphere and Ring of Red.

Consumers who are PlayStation Plus subscribers will receive a 20% discount during the launch week of each “Only On PSN” game. On top of that, if you spend $60 or more out of your PlayStation Network/Sony Entertainment Network (SEN) Wallet throughout the month of October, you'll be able to receive a $10 store credit towards purchases in November. This promotion isn't limited to just games - spending can be on add-ons, PlayStation Home micro-transactions, TV shows, movies, Music Unlimited subscriptions, etc.

“‘Only On PlayStation Network’ is our line of great exclusive games that users can count on to deliver exciting game experiences that can’t be found anywhere else,” said Susan Panico, senior director of PlayStation Network, SCEA. “This strong initial content offering, combined with the day one discounts for PlayStation Plus subscribers and the ‘Spend $60, Get $10 Back’ promotion, makes PlayStation Network the premier destination for digital content.”

The lineup in the program is as follows: October 4 - Eufloria and Rochard; October 11 - Sideway: New York; October 13 - Sodium Collection; October 18 - Okabu and RocketBirds; October 25 - inFAMOUS: Festival of Blood and PixelJunk Sidescroller.

IndustryGamers spoke with Susan Panico about the program and Sony's continued push for exclusives. We'll be bringing you that soon.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

In case anyone wasn't sure, this is definitely the PS1 Final Fantasy Chronicles version of Chrono Trigger, with the ability to save endings when you complete them, and view the FMV movies, bestiary, art gallery etc.

Even if you've never seen the FMV's in this game, you'll know immediately who drew them if you happen to be any kind of anime fan.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

One question I have...
A month ago my PS3 was stolen which had my account with trophies, now I've bought a new PS3, is there a way to use my same account on my new PS3?

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

One question I have...
A month ago my PS3 was stolen which had my account with trophies, now I've bought a new PS3, is there a way to use my same account on my new PS3?

Your account can be active on up to 5 different consoles so hopefully you didn't have auto log in turned on and the thieves haven't changed your password. On the new PS, instead of creating a new account, select to log into an existing account and enter your old email addy and password. Then change all your info just in case the thieves did have access.

Re: Playstation Network and Discussion - The New Beginning

An Important Message From Sony’s Chief Information Security Officer

+ Posted by Philip Reitinger // SVP & Chief Information Security Officer, Sony Group

We want to let you know that we have detected attempts on Sony Entertainment Network, PlayStation Network and Sony Online Entertainment (“Networks”) services to test a massive set of sign-in IDs and passwords against our network database. These attempts appear to include a large amount of data obtained from one or more compromised lists from other companies, sites or other sources. In this case, given that the data tested against our network consisted of sign-in ID-password pairs, and that the overwhelming majority of the pairs resulted in failed matching attempts, it is likely the data came from another source and not from our Networks. We have taken steps to mitigate the activity.

Less than one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of our PSN, SEN and SOE audience may have been affected. There were approximately 93,000 accounts globally (PSN/SEN: approximately 60,000 accounts; SOE: approximately 33,000) where the attempts succeeded in verifying those accounts’ valid sign-in IDs and passwords, and we have temporarily locked these accounts. Only a small fraction of these 93,000 accounts showed additional activity prior to being locked. We are currently reviewing those accounts for unauthorized access, and will provide more updates as we have them. Please note, if you have a credit card associated with your account, your credit card number is not at risk. We will work with any users whom we confirm have had unauthorized purchases made to restore amounts in the PSN/SEN or SOE wallet.

As a preventative measure, we are requiring secure password resets for those PSN/SEN accounts that had both a sign-in ID and password match through this attempt. If you are in the small group of PSN/SEN users who may have been affected, you will receive an email from us at the address associated with your account that will prompt you to reset your password.

Similarly, the SOE accounts that were matched have been temporarily turned off. If you are among the small group of affected SOE customers, you will receive an email from us at the address associated with your account that will advise you on next steps in order to validate your account credentials and have your account turned back on.

We want to take this opportunity to remind our consumers about the increasingly common threat of fraudulent activity online, as well as the importance of having a strong password and having a username/password combination that is not associated with other online services or sites. We encourage you to choose unique, hard-to-guess passwords and always look for unusual activity in your account.

PSN Accounts Compromised in Mass Log-in Attempt

Since the PlayStation Network breach in April, which resulted in PSN being taken offline for the better part of a month, many users have been concerned each time the service goes down for maintenance out of fear it has been attacked once again. PSN isn't down today, but if you find yourself locked out of your account, you may be one of the users whose account has been logged into by hackers.
Philip Reitinger, the former DHS official who was hired last month as Sony's Chief Information Security Officer, revealed news on the latest hack attempt in a post on the PlayStation Blog last night.

"We want to let you know that we have detected attempts on Sony Entertainment Network, PlayStation Network and Sony Online Entertainment ('Networks') services to test a massive set of sign-in IDs and passwords against our network database," he wrote. "These attempts appear to include a large amount of data obtained from one or more compromised lists from other companies, sites or other sources."

Because there were so many failed attempts to log in, Sony believes this list of usernames and passwords comes from "another source and not from our Networks." In other words, it doesn't think these logins came from a list obtained when PSN and SOE were attacked in April.

A timeline for when this occurred wasn't outlined. It was a fairly small number of users who were affected in terms of percentages -- less than 0.1 percent -- but that still translates to about 93,000 accounts worldwide. Roughly 60,000 of those belong to PSN and Sony Entertainment Network members, while the other 33,000 are accounted for by SOE users. All of these accounts have been locked and are currently inaccessible while Sony reviews them for "unauthorized access."

Credit cards are not at risk. Anyone who is charged for an unauthorized purchase will be eligible for a refund from Sony.

If you're among the PSN members who have been locked out, look for an email coming from Sony which will instruct you to change your password. SOE members will also receive an email about validating account information and getting the account turned back on.

Reitinger ended the post by encouraging users to be wary of potentially fraudulent activities online and to have a unique password for each website and service you visit.

Good on them for catching it and warning everyone.

Punks out there trying to steal through seeing you on other sites. This is happening to a lot of sites and different Internet accounts recently.

Thanks, I could log in with my old account and I changed my password.
