Sony’s recently announced “Welcome Back” incentive program seems to be drawing some mixed reactions out of the PSN users its attempting to pacify.

  • Just give each user like, $20. Like we’ve always said: A Jackson makes the problems go away.
  • Do the puppy box idea and the $20 idea. That’s what we like to call synergy, folks.
  • Make the PSN freer? (We’re still workshopping this one.)
