End this and charge a fee on used games...So they think we are dumb? Yes they do...

And I just bought the Battlefield 3 one yesterday. Should have held out a couple more weeks :p

I don't understand a lot of you ungrateful cats out here... finally EA does something out of the goodness and kindness of their heart because they want to connect with us gamers and this the thanks we give!!?? Shame on us..... what's next huh? We'll complain if EA gives us games for free and charges us for guns, ammo, and lives??

everyone now go buy every CD Project RED Games cause they are the ones who started this push for no DRMs, it just dont sell good and makes companys looks negative ! Witcher 1 and 2 and upcoming 3 and the upcoming cyberpunk game, go get them and go preorder them. Good start EA, now when you make a game , make sure you dont over hype in game stuff that you never put in it like Superman Returns lol :p

read it jackasses

So what happens to all the people who only recently paid for these season passes, only to have them ripped away?

will they get refunds? or just shat on again?

Ehhh somethin dont smell right, where is the poo EA?

I seriously hope PS4 saves us. All it has to do is....not do what Microsoft is doing. EA may think they are fooling us but we know better.

Personally, DRM doesn't affect me, because I don't buy used. However, I absolutely hate the fact that these companies are doing anything possible to get our money. Therefore I am extremely appalled by all of this DRM.

Looks like EA is trying to avoid earning a threepeat.

No matter the reason, kudos to EA for listening to customers. Perhaps this might be the beginning of a new trend now that they are out from under the influence of John Riccitello.

ok my BROTHERS. as you see alotof people dont like this new drm shit.

these companies are playing with fire. if we dont buy new consoles that would be a great lesson for them.

People are talking about this being due to the future consoles having DRM, used game fees & the like. What relevance does anything in next gen have to do with the online passes of the current one? Sure, EA'll be killing the servers off as soon as they can, but that doesn't make this move profitable for them. This genuinely seems like an - albeit small - bit of good will.

Which of course only makes the cynic in me more suspicious.

I see a lot of people raging about this used game fee that Microsoft and probably Sony are putting in place. But why so much rage? It's not going to push used game prices up any higher. The games stores sell used games for only a bit less than new ones. If they push the price up then the used games will cost the same as new, and then no one would buy the used games. So they won't do it.

Well they might push up the price of new games... but that would hurt sales. New console games are pretty pricey already. It'd be a brave store that pushed them even higher.

You should buy new anyway from almost a moral point of view. When you buy a new game the developers - the people that made the game you're enjoying - get a bit of the money. When you buy used all the profit goes to the games store. Got a conscience have you?

Doesn't even matter. If everybody can make a profit, these companies don't care about you.

i hope sony wont make stupid mistake. no gamer likes this system.

that is dictatorism
