starting with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 if you buy you games used you wont be able to connect online with it. FIFA, NHL, NBA Live, NCAA Football, and EA Sports MMA
@dunte86 This is what will happen, every disc will likely come with it's own unique code that will be registered in an online database. When the first person downloads the game fresh(new) they'll probably have to register the game like PC gamers have to do their games. PC games are most of the time(if not all) locked to one game per PC, and it goes on some code on the box or something.
@dunte86 So if a person buys and EA game and then they sell it back to, lets say, Gamestop, the next person who picks that used copy up will have to pay ten dollars when they take it home and use try to access the online features.
This is going to bad for EA. Also the game will either be registered to you console, or the online database.
yea its like battlefield bad company 2 if u buy it new u get a VIP code to enter and u get access to sum new maps and upcoming map packs and updates etc……..for example my friend bought this game used like a week ago and he couldnt play the new maps and stuff he needed to buy that VIP code……like u said EA is making moves "SMART"MOVES" they're just finding ways to make more money
@CyberSpectrumND yeah, i read up on it after i posted the comment. It's smart…but wow, I mean they do lose money from people buying used though… Lets hope this doesn't catch on
@VViP30U7
No, I'm not gonna "miss" used games. Because even if I WANTED to buy a used game, I could just buy a code from EA to play it online. But that's coming from a guy who can afford a new game in the first place…. my bad. GET A JOB
AS for buying new games i buy them used all ways. Would i regather buy a new game for 50-60 bucks Or would i regather buy the same game BUT for only 17-40 bucks? any way i hope they dont go with this idea. Other wise it will be harder for me to buy games.
IF you buy it used or rent it you have to pay $10.00 fee or aka online pass, Sorry I like to be taken to dinner befor am screwed. Am protesting EA titles and others should join to prove a point cause 1st its sports then its going to 1st players shooters then what to all games! Stop it now and save yourself money.
EA sucks, i buy used cause i dont have alot of money, i dont play sports games but u know this is going to spread to all ea games, the only way to stop this is to not buy EA, put a gigantic dent in ea sales DONT BUY EA, good video thumbs up!
ayyyeee do you think if my friend bought a pass but didnt enter the code, and then let me enter the code for my gamertag, would it register for my gamertag?
We need to create a gamers union like the ones that labor workers had in the early 90's. By forming a union we can stop companies like EA from manhandling us
Iv'e bought every Fifa game been sold since day 1. And my bro buy's his first ever Fifa and there is only 1 online pass code, i told him to buy it because iv'e got money problems ATM, i later find out after 7 days i can no longer play online unless i cough up £5.00/$5.00 for a fucking dumb online pass. Well done EA you've lost another valuable customer!!!
@MadThad0890 NO EA SPORTS has just killed them selves because nobody is going to buy their games or pay extra 10 dollars for crapy games. DUDE we have the power to shut them down by not buying anything from them. they don't care about us so why are we giving them our money. ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS DON'T GIVE EA SPORTS OUR MONEY AND EA SPORTS WILL SLOWLY DIE !!!!!!!
Lol I agree with u 100% honestly I just wanna trade in all my games and my xbox before they start to charge monthly fees to play online or get "special features"
The funny thing is that Warner is joining the fray, with Mortal Kombat requiring online pass to play.
It may be likely that Activision and Ubisoft will also introduce the PlayPass system.
But on the other hand, Gamestop does sell used game for a measily 5 bucks less then new, and it may be the area where I support it, since from that perspective, it harms more on retails than consumers. At the same time, though, games have value and stuff like this ruins the value.
@JDonahue79
Keep in mind that your games resale value will become less.
Also if you have multiple people that play online in separate profiles your fucked.
And to add you won't be able to rent games to play online anymore.
They are robbing you and retaliers won't be effected because they choose the prices they sell them for a little less and you get alot less for trading them in now so in the end you the consumer that legally pays for the game get's ass fucked
EA is greedy
@MadThad0890 I have to say fuck getting them new, if they're so intent on killing the used game market, when it not only stimulates the new game market via trade in, but they already make obscene profits, then I'll just reduce my new game purchases period. I'll find old games that I haven't played and buy them, or find a new hobby altogether, fuck EA.
I understood taking down the servers after a few years but paying to play online is stupid and I would have bought an xbox 360 if I wanted to pay to play online…10 dollars or 1 I dont want to pay to play online bottom line. Ea makes a ridiculous amount of cash too so i dont know why they decided to do this, they can fuck off.
@MadThad0890
why the hell should I buy games new.. it's a shitty road to take. 60$ for a game you can't sell worth shit even a few months later or at all really is stupid… honestly. That will kill games because people will be less likely to buy new games if they can't sell it. PC game market is falling because of it.

first off screw Game stop. They do not give you anything on trade ins. second off i agree with you its all about them sucking money out of you. Plain and simple i am not buying anymore game systems from here on out. third off i am with you all the way other then worry about game stop.
simple way to combat this…. agree to play the game in question when the new price reduces sufficiently enough… if enough people refuse to buy the game at release the game companies should change. maybe a facebook campaign would work? the game company should devise away to make money from sales of used games…. not screw over there customers
@MrDeadman1232 nope, you need an online pass for each game separately, your talking about the EA/Origins account which is different. I too am annoyed ass SSX costs 800 M points to play online.
