Sorry, I'm with EA, Sony, and anyone else that does this.  It doesn't hurt the consumers, it only hurts the used game stores and probably the ma and pa ones at that.

 


How does it not hurt people who sell the game.  You don't think used game stores are going to start offering less for games that use this voucher?

I'd guess most if not all of the money will come out of the person who sells it's pocket.

You might get less for the games but you'll also get used games for less.

If you sell games to buy new ones, then you might lose a small amount but when we're talking in the amounts of $5, it's nothing huge.

If you sell games to buy used ones, you're getting less but you're paying less too.  If you want the online pass that will cost you more, but just pretend it's DLC and it would cost more anyways.

I don't really see why people are bitching so much about this.  If you really don't like it, buy your game new for $59.99 instead of used for $54.99.

Also, I do find it funny that people are wanting to boycott EA for this, except they're the ones buying used EA games and EA doesn't care about them.
