Forums - Sony Discussion - Did you get your $10 from Santa Kaz?

ECM on 20 February 2013

I have a super low playtime on my PS3 and barely started using the SONY eShop until about 6-months ago even though I've had it since launch day and I still got the $10, so there's something else at work here other than those things.

(I do, however, have PS+, so that might explain it in my case.)

I just log in my account and got a message from Daddy Sony giving me $10 for being a loyal customer. Its gonna be a great day for Playstation users.

Did you get yours? Does MS gives you free money?

Here's a pic I got from /v/ since I'm too lazy to get my camera and took a picture from my screen.

Santa Kaz visited me.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

It seems like Santa Kaz is chosing at random or at least picking master race people with PS+ like me, I have only been user since 09 probably spend like a 100$ on the store but I have been a plus member for the last 6 months

I got it!
Bought my PS3 in 2010 (damn you outrageous prices in Brazil... >:( ), sou it's probaly not about how long you have a PS3... And i don't think it's about hours played either, because the accout that got those nice little U$10 was one that i have yet to play a single game (i just use it to buy stuff) and i don't think it's about how much you have spent in the store either... Because here in Brazil, i pay something like U$65 for the U$50 card... So in these 3 years i haven't actually bought a lot of stuff (way less than some people here that didn't get the $10). Therefore, one thing that i suspect that might be the reason for selecting the people that get the $$ is PS+, because just last week i bought some 3years and 9months of PS+ (dat "buy 1 year get 3 months deal"...), so now my sybscription only ends in 2017! So yeah, i think that might be it, at least it seems it was for me... 

If this isn't the method used for selecting who gets it and who doens't gets it, then it appears it's just random (meaning that i got lucky for the first time in my life!)

You bought 3 years of PS+? Why so much?

Overconfidence in Sony is my guess... And gotta finish dem backlogs... Way too much games for one person! (damn you "tiny" OCD that makes me platinum/100% every damn game)

Didn't check yet, but MS gives you 25 cents on your birthday. In 40 years it will be $10.
