Sony’s promised ‘Welcome Back’ package is now live. PS3 owners will be able to choose two PS3 games from a list of five, and PSP owners can choose two PSP games from a list of four.
For PS3 owners, go to the ‘Welcome Back’ section in the PlayStation Store, and select 2 titles from the following list:
- Dead Nation
- inFAMOUS
- LittleBigPlanet
- Ratchet & Clank: Quest for Booty
- Wipeout HD + Fury
For PSP owners, go to the ‘Welcome Back’ section of PlayStation Store on your PSP system and select 2 titles from the following list:
- LittleBigPlanet (PSP)
- ModNation Racers
- Pursuit Force
- Killzone Liberation
Those wanting to get their 30 days free PlayStation Plus need to go to the PlayStation Store and under the ‘Welcome Back’ section, select ‘PlayStation Plus: 30 Days Free’, and you’ll be given access. Existing PlayStation Plus subscribers won’t need to do anything, and their 60 free days will be added automatically.
PlayStation Network users will also get a large number of free virtual items in PlayStation Home, with more information on that available in the near future.
A selection of “On Us” movie rentals are currently available to PlayStation Network customers this weekend only, where Video Service is available.
Now go on, get out of here you crazy kids.

For those who are having error not seeing Welcome Pack at Store simply go to your Account Management>Transaction Management>Service List there you can find a Welcome Pack named SCEE Promotional access something like that.

EveryBody found a way round errors (for me anyways)
Same as above to start
1. Account management>Transaction Management>Service list find welcome pack.
2. it will take you to games select the one you want. It will prob come up with error message but you will notice the red shopping basket next to the game now. Do the same for the next game you want and same error message but again red shopping basket.
3. Go into the playstation store then top right hand corner select view downloads. You should see the two games you attempted to download, click on them and they go straight to activation and download
Hope this helps 8)it worked for me so hope someone else can benefit !

Yes, just go to account management under the XMB. Then go down to transaction management then services list. You should see PS3 free games (or PSP), select this and go choose your remaining game(s).
Same thing happened to me and to many others judging by the FAQ on playstation blog
