nice definitely sounds like an improvment

anyone ever had this problem? my ps3 wont let me change backgrounds, and it wont load disc games.

Back up your drive, and boot up the service menu, run through all the options and see if that fixes anything. Also try re-seating the HDD.

EA Sports Locks Out Multiplayer Modes On Used Sales
EA tackles used game sales with new one-time only code.

by Jim Reilly

May 10, 2010 - EA Sports is going after the used game market.

Starting with the release of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the publisher will introduce a new Online Pass, a one-time registration code included with each brand new copy of the game. The code allows players to access "online services, features and bonus content."

Those who purchase the game used can buy an Online Pass for $10 or sign up for a free 7-day trial. The pass will be implemented for NCAA Football 11, NHL 11, Madden NFL 11, NBA 11, FIFA 11, and EA Sports MMA as well. The pass offers different features for each title, however, players will not have access to basic multiplayer features if purchased used.

"You will be unable to play multiplayer online game modes or use your downloaded content in online game modes," EA says. Online leagues, dynasty and franchise modes are also only available with the Online Pass. The break down for each title can be seen on the publisher's official website.

"This is an important inflection point in our business because it allows us to accelerate our commitment to enhance premium online services to the entire robust EA SPORTS online community," said Peter Moore, President of EA SPORTS.

Despite being the leader in used game sales, retailer GameStop, which acknowledged it plans to focus on digital content in the future, supports Electronic Arts' new direction.

"GameStop is excited to partner with such a forward-thinking publisher as Electronic Arts," said Dan DeMatteo, Chief Executive Officer of GameStop Corp. "This relationship allows us to capitalize on our investments to market and sell downloadable content online, as well as through our network of stores worldwide."

Damn you EA.:mad:

Wow guess anyone buying used won't be playing online then, or pay the extra $10. What a bunch of greedy Mofos

EA is getting more gay each year

good thing i buy EA games new...but it'll hurt my resell values when i want to sell 'em

hmm just seems like it applies to EA sports..wonder if it'll apply to other games soon after

so much for lending games to friends

I think EA is trying to get a piece of pie in the used game industry.

But imo, there are much easier way to do this without upsetting (which their current method does) their client base.

Just make the game relatively cheap (say 30 bucks or even free for some online-heavy games) and charge a 20 bucks fee to all online playing feature as "service maintenance fee and not transferable" to each player.

For EA, they get more revenue (a game transferred ownership will be 30+[20*n] with n being the time online subscription being added, assuming at least 1 owner adds online playing, they are revenue neutral) , while gamers enjoy the saving depending on how they play them.

maybe people should stop being so cheap and just buy it new...(if the game is worth it that is)

Just borrowed heavy rain from my friend, i must say this game is worth buying

^ really? i'll just rent it

Rent it or buy it, game is worth playing.

i played all 7 endings with heavy rain
you guys should try playing some alternative path because my original one was kinda boring...glad i played through it again and saw different ones as they were much more interesting.

Got to like chapter 35 playing consistently for about 5 hours, taking a break for now..

somehow i feel different, its OKAY ish


7/10 for me

if that game wasnt so retarded expensive (at new price) $69.99 plus taxes i bet there will be more gamers that are willing to snap it off the shelf when it first released

I don't buy games retail unless I do a trade 2 or 3 and I always spend $45 or less. Buying retail is such a rip off

^

sweet u are cheap like me now

:D



any new interesting games that are coming out for the next few months?

problem for me is that there are so few quality games that warrant paying $60 for. IMO EA games are definately in the "not warranted" list at $60, but that's just me.
