iBotModz_Bot Posted May 11, 2010 Report Posted May 11, 2010 From dailytech.com:Electronic Arts is the king of the sports game market with hot upcoming titles including NCAA Football 11, NHL 11, Madden NFL 11, NBA 11, FIFA 11, and EA Sports MMA. Now it has made a controversial decision concerning all of those titles -- it will lock players who buy used copies out of online multiplayer. "Online services, features and bonus content" will all be covered by a one time code, that won't work for the new purchaser. EA describes, "You will be unable to play multiplayer online game modes or use your downloaded content in online game modes." Used purchasers do gain access to a 7 day trial, but they will have to purchase a $10 pass if they want to continue to play online.
