eh. dont play games online anyway. but this is bound to be another one of those "burdens for legitimate owners and no problem for pirated copies" issues.
No. Pirate No.1 uses his code and Pirate No.2 has to pay $10. If Pirate No.2 is out of luck the game has a specific internal serial which simply prohibits more than one parallel online instance.
I guess if you sell a game to a friend with this system in place you could just say you had a PC reinstall or similar. I'm not too sure about that but could be annoying.
@duke this is for consoles not pc games. the code unlocks multiplayer and it ties to your live account, or ps3 online account.
@1000possibleclaws my apologies, I thought this was aimed at all platforms
Another bad response, people are going to keep up pirating those games.
This will also be affect legit users who 'share' copies, i.e. we only buy one copy of each game but my husband, daughter and son all play it. They each have their own xbox360's each with online accounts. If only the discs have an internal serial number, we would have to buy multiple discs. This is just punishing legit users as the hackers will find a way around it in no time.Quote:
