EA online passes begin to go free

EA has removed the pay wall for VIP & Online Passes on a selection of older Xbox 360 titles.

The move follows comments from EA Sports earlier this month revealing that the publisher would be dropping its controversial Online Pass program from future releases.

It means that second-hand users are able to access the online components and/or bonus content supplied with new copies of each game, and which typically require users to register a one-time use code.

Games with Online/VIP Passes reduced to zero currently include Mass Effect 2, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Alice: Madness Returns, Bulletstorm, Shift 2: Unleashed, Medal of Honor, Dragon Age 2 & more.

The point to not here is that this is Xbox Live only, original prices still apply to the PS3 versions, Seems EA certainly have shifted their alligence

Bad Company 2, mega game

Yeah i read somewhere that stone prisoner for dragon age is now free, going to have to pick it up if it is

Think I'll have to pickup BF BC2 again. It's better than BF3.

Free up the online passes then shut down the game servers
