Well i just bought rock band 2 and i noticed on the back of the manual it told about the 20 free songs that you get.  You have to go to rockband.com and enter a registration code thats on the manual, and give them your email address and then they will send you a token to get these 20 free songs once they come out. 

Point is i'm pretty sure that if you sold this game, the person who bought it used won't be able to get those 20 free songs because the code has already been used.  I think that more game publishers will follow EA and start to add bonus stuff if you buy their game brand new.  But I guess it kinda makes it more worth it too buy a brand new game instead of used.

What are your thoughts on this??

That's actually bullshit. Second hand or not you should get what u pay for.

You can still resell the game, just too bad for the one buying a used copy. o_o

That commnt is hogwash. Why should they give you "free"(if you buy) content when you didn't give them a cent on that second hand game. Keep that in mind. The offer is to the person who actually contributed money to the company. Second hand games only give money to the pawn/Game shop. You should be ashamed that you think you should get the "offer" when your not supporting the company.

It's a fair way to deal with buying used games. They just make the new game more enticing.

This is not worse than electronic distribution. How are you going to sell that baby?

Good, no more recycling games for EB

Same reason for Spore DRM. They don't want you reselling.

I generally tend to buy factory sealed games. I just buy them at dirt cheap prices.

They'll have to do a hell of a lot more than hold content hostage to kill gamefly though.

I'm for anything that hurts gamestop, however.

I think this is way better than DRM at curbing both reselling and piracy. Just make new copies better. As much as I hate EA, I'll still side with them in any battle against GameStop.
