| http://gematsu.com/2013/05/ea-nixes-online-pass-program Now they need to get rid of their always online DRM and things will be better for their future. |
 |
| Wonder if it'll influence several other gaming companies to stop with the online passes. For me, this news doesn't really have much of a impact as the only game I even have for them for any modern consoles would be Battlefield 3, which I rarely touch to begin with. |
| Don't care almost every new EA game is shit. |

| Yeah, because with the next generation of consoles they'll be able to make their games always online / one time use removing the need for an online pass. JOKES ON US D: |

TehBlindSamurai said: Well Sony has confirmed that their console will not be always online and if Microsoft is smart they will do the same, so I don't think that's gonna happen Both of them also confirmed that DRM is up for the publishers to decide. So allways online for certain games is still possible and MS/Sony then has the possibility to shift all the blame on them. But maybe it will only be a Steam-like system - account-based, one-time activation, have to log-in every x days. ^^ |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Ever since EA touched Red Alert 3, I stopped caring for them. |
| About fucking time. Too bad I don't care for any of their games anymore. |

It's even worse than always-online or online passes. It also entirely will decimate any chance for companies like GameFly to continue to run because renting or borrowing games will become undoable - same for selling used games, so GameStop and others would go out of business along with them. |

| yea son now i get 2 play madden 24/7 without having to put a bullshit code |

| Sucks, I pretty much stopped playing EA games. I used to play BF3 ALOT until premium came out, then I realized how shitty the game was going to be after. They give me skins which most games give for free. |

They give me skins which most games give for free. didn't even buy premium for the skins, they were just a bonus I'm glad I did, because I enjoyed every single DLC, Armoured kill has gotten better now that they nerfed the ac130 or whatever, CQ has also become better(did fast-paced better than CoD lol), Aftermath and endgame were pure awesome, except for EG rush. This is on PS3 so no 64-player HOLY SHEEEEET THEY'RE EVERYWHERE EDIT: nothing beats beta though xD |

| Yea, well, that's like Hitler saying they've stopped throwing Jews into mass graves and instead pack them neatly into jars with names on and ship them to their families. Only difference being EA doesn't have the coolest uniforms ever and badass guns and tanks. Fuck you EA, I'm not giving you threefiddy. No, not even twofiddy. |
