I have not heard of that, or are you talking about what they did with Gears 2.

Gears 2 came with a download code that enabled you to get 4 or 5 extra horde maps. Those maps did not ship with the game, but were free to download. It is a one time code, and this I think it was just to cut down on the resale market of the game.

 

 

no they said that they might start because they r sick of used game sales.supposedly people were buying gears 2 used the first day it came out

Well when I bought it.  I got a download code for maps that came in the case.

So they did not just start it, the plan had to be there for a while.  Cause I got a copy on release day.  They later added some achievements for those maps though.
