It appears that sony will now start handing out "one time use" passes in new games. This saddens me as a ex-sony fanboy, but also brings a lot of questions. What exactly are they trying to achieve out of this? In there excuse "targeting piracy" the only motive , or are they targeting the used video game industry? We will have to see how this turns out in the fall.
Yesterday, German website Konsolentreff published early photos of the Resistance 3 PS3 bundle box showing a new logo that says "PSN Pass."
The message read: "Network features only available in countries that have PlayStation Store." However, no other details were provided.
SCEA responded to requests for comment this morning to clarify, saying this program requires customers to input a one-time use code to access a game's online capabilities, similar to EA's Online Pass introduced last year.
