Rag Doll Kung Fu to be free for a limited time?

PSN games have always delivered a great value for a meager price. Now, it looks like the deal is about to get even sweeter. Advertisements on several gaming sites have been spotted, indicating that Sony may be giving Rag Doll Kung Fu away free for a limited time.

1.6 - any other free games?
Were there any other free psn games that I may have missed? I'll gladly get this one but I am just curious if there had been other promo titles given away up to now.

Yes I can confirm it is free, just go to the store, click the ad, go into Sprint and download the full game from there. This is a crazy deal, the game usually costs $10

Edit; It's only the US store guys

Thanks for that. I had gotten many a free games from XBL and it is good to see Sony starting to offer similar goodies. Maybe sony should offer up a free movie or tv show once in awhile.

Yeah, I'm guessing you'll have to either buy a sprint phone or activate service or something, and then they'll give you a free game. But I guess we'll find out.

Absolutely a blast when you play with mates. And the visuals are very sharp. Just another 1080p with LBP graphics. Achieving gold and plastic on many challenges is a bit tedious though.

edit: it sucks i know. i think it's only for USA though so no biggy for me.

I think when they posted the article, the deal wasn't live yet, just the advertisements were up.

Yeah, originally it was "speculation" based on some ads that were seen around on the net. (consequently, that's why in my first post I was a tad cynical, saying that we would probably have to buy a phone to get the free game... :-P ) Glad I was wrong.

21 - I just saved some money with PS3.
Downloading right now. woohoo I just got 10.00 dollars back for no reason on my PS3 investment. It's so cool I am getting money back in my pocket. It pays to be a PS3 owner. Would also like to thank N4G and the contributor for bringing non-flaming news and instead a little reward for reading alot of the junk on here.

21.1 - Wait
Are you saying that you bought the game before this deal, decided to DL it again and and got your money back, or that the money you spent on it is back in your account?

No it means I don't have to spend money to get it right now. Because I was pretty close to buying it anyway so I saved some money. By not purchasing it. Come on man it's a joke some people are pretty lame.

...I open the store, and see sprint FREE Rag-Doll, WTH... downloading NOW! Is this too good to be true? This game is made by Media Molecule, if I'm not mistaken, the same devs for LBP!!!

AWESOME...! I guess it is true... oh yea, hopin' on Home now to get FREE appt!

23 - This is a pleasant surprise.
And they just put it out too.

@Above:
They're offing a free Apt in Home RIGHT NOW. Fantasy setting set around a tree with a face and fairies in its branches. 4-5 fire pits you can turn into waterfalls and two large side rooms for furnishings.

Damnit, I think Sony just got me - I need matching furnisher. A BIG screen TV when they ever offer it. Maybe two.

The game doesn't feature online so I guess it isn't selling that well. That may be the reason they are giving it for free temporary so they can sell more later on by word of mouth.

That's just my theory... Anyway, it's nice to get it for free.

at least something good about? Idk, a free game that is usually $10 is a REAL DEAL... holy cow! But, doesn't it also have offline multiplayer at least?

-Quicky Review-

~First play was quite fun, just tried the tutorial, and made a character, and it appears to be a relative deep game!

~Yes, there is multiplayer (no online), but that's sufficient.

~Motion controls are crazy, and I guess I need to work with them more... the game is actually, ridiculously fun... woulda payed $10... but I DIDN'T lol!
