Battlefield 3 "May" Have Online Passes

August 01, 2011 in News comments 2

The upcoming shooter game from EA and DICE, Battlefield 3 may be getting online passes according to EA themselves. This would mean used game buyers would need to buy a code to access online features.

Battlefield 3, DICE's the upcoming answer to the flooded FPS genre, is set to release 10/25 this year. The title will be shipping with many new and unique features to the Battlefield brand, such as the 'Battlelog' system, a fully fleshed out single-player campaign and seamless vehicular combat. However, not all the features seem to be positive; at least one that may cause a few gamers to cringe is the inclusion of an 'online pass' system.

    That is messed up! If you buy the game, buy Xbox live, then you should not have to pay anymore to play a game!

      Whether you pay for Xbox Live or not doesn't matter. This goes across all platforms, so it's not just Xbox users who have to pay. The game itself should come with a pass, but if you buy it used you'll have to pay more. It's more of an anti-used games thing.
