Life without PSN and the aftermath :)

Well if you haven't heard, PSN [Play Station Network] was hacked a about a little over a month ago.  So the network was shut down for a few weeks while they ran tests to ensure that the servers were secure.  It wasn't so bad while the network was down. (Not for me at least.) It gave me the time to do things other than gaming. When I have online, Call of Duty Black Ops likes to distract me from my other games.  However having no online gives me time to play my games which do not run on online.  One of these being Naughty Bear.  Haha, weird title eh?  Well basically it is about a bear that wasn't invited to the other bears parties.  After not being invited it decides it needs to take revenge upon the other bears by murdering, scaring, and destroying the bears and their party gifts.
So on May 14th, PSN was put back up.  a couple of weeks later they gave each PSN user 2 Free PS3 games, 2 PSP games, 1 free PS3 Theme, one free month of Play Station Plus, and 100 free Playstation Home items.  I Chose to get Infamous and Dead Nation for PS3, Little Big Planet and Modnation Racers for PSP, and all of the other offers.  
I would have to say that Sony putting Infamous up as a free download was a very good move on their part!  I am now a HUGE fan and I will be buying Infamous 2 once I get enough money.  This will definitely bring up the sales of Infamous 2.  I even drew a fanart drawing of Kessler, the evil guy in Infamous.  
I don't know about you but, I think Sony has benefited from this Hack.  What are your views on the attack? Please comment below! :)
