This is nobody but sonys fault really. It's just sad to see people rush to the defense of a console that somehow fails in every area.
How is
any of this actually Sonys fault?
Sony's security system was (and is) on the same end as banks, and even banks get robbed once in a while. Do you usually blame the bank, or the robber? I dun see why the hackers are seen like some kind of Robin Hood in this case, since They are the ones that ruined gaming for us.
Concerning the Welcome Back gift, imo it is a lot more than we deserve, seeing how much shit we give Sony for something they can not control. They have no obligation to give the players anything at all, since the players are the ones that broke their toy (that would be PSN). Also, you only see the few games listed as the gift; check out your free PSN Plus as well, you get about another 10 free games (mostly small and cheap, yes, but still good games) from there.
Besides, what do ya expect; that if Microsoft get hacked they'll give you free copies of every new AAA-game for a year? Don't be stupid, this way no one looses and everybody wins.
