My housemate bought the limited edition of Battlefield 3 via preorder, he got it day one and when he turned it on and entered his code it apparently had already been used. What a great system.

I understand companies mind set but it still a bit weird. 5 people buy it new, this accounts for 5 players on the servers. `1 person exchanges it and so 4 people are playing when they account for 5, a new guy buys the used copy and now 5 people are playing again. No extra usage. Only problem comes from piracy copies I guess.


That said in this case I'm buying it new anyway.



Hmm, pie.
