Sony Online Entertainment services also coming back online
8
Sony Online Entertainment has been an unfortunately named business these past two weeks, when its catalog of MMOs were taken offline following the PlayStation Network security breach. Fortunately, the servers of titles like Free Realms, EverQuest 2 and Clone Wars Adventures slowly but surely started to come back online this past weekend -- each including a little incentive to try and lure back their disconnected player bases.
These incentives include XP bonuses, free rare items and special events, all of which are laid out on this handy chart. If you're an SOE account holder in "good standing," you'll also get 45 days of in-game time on-the-house. If you're a lifetime subscriber, though, you'll get just the extra super special in-game bonuses. Also, everyone gets 500 Station Cash, a currency players can use to purchase even more in-game items. This outage might just be the best thing to ever happen to your online adventurer's lootsack.

I had no idea these were down. You'd think they'd be on completely seperate servers and such.. unless the hackers were just incredibly pissed off at the whole company.

Ok. If they're giving away free rare items to everyone effected. Are they really rare anymore?

I had never even heard of Clone Wars Adventures. Nice to see everything is coming back up steadily.
Though it would be upsetting if the responsible group was just waiting for everything to get back up just to hack it to oblivion again.
