Who the hell does that Moore guy and EA think they are? Supposedly he has come up with this genius plan: Buy an EA Sports game brand new and you get a code that allows you to play it online for free(something we have all been doing since the PS3 was launched - doh). However, buy the same game second hand and you will need to purchase the same code for that game over the PSN network for around £10. It's bad enough that these tossers at EA have gotten away with fleecing us for years by releasing the same games annually with only minor updates, but now they are gonna cripple the second hand market with this cockeyed plan.
For many people - me included - buying second hand games cheap is the only way we can afford to get all the games we want. Who these days can afford to buy every game brand new? I only buy brand new games if it's something I've been looking forward to for ages, like the upcoming GT5.
Personally, I think if you have a recent Fifa/NHL/NBA/Tiger Woods/Madden(depending on which one you like) game in your collection, you shouldn't really need to buy another one for years, and that we should all boycott EA's upcoming annual updates this year and next year just to teach them a lesson: Do not screw us over by trying to charge us for something that every other company gives us for free.
