Love that picture every time. The numeric system is exactly why I like Kotaku's reviews. They tell you what they like, what they don't like, and if they recommend it or not. Especially since IGN's reviews pretty much start at 8.5 nowadays anyways. I actually linked my friend to about 10 games in a few month period,…

So far, aside from the music, and the horrible frame rate, I'm enjoying it so much more than XIII.

Fallout 3/NV on the go would be awesome.

You won't hurt Sony, you could die in a fire and no one would even know you existed is my point. The VERY small fraction of people who are crying about this won't put a dent into Sony's finances. Twisted Metal's developers on the other hand might. So you crying that you were going to buy it used shows no support…

Way to miss the point.

So you'd rather screw over the Twisted Metal developers to spite Sony. Sounds good!

They aren't standing up for anything. The 5 people who won't eventually buy this game because it has the online pass are going to have any effect? The funny part is, you'll only screw over the Twisted Metal developers and not Sony. The online pass system is total crap, but unless no one buys the game, it's here to…

No one is getting screwed. You buying used is your choice, Sony is not forcing you to buy this game, hell they aren't even forcing you to buy it at launch. But if you'd like to play online, buy a new copy.

You can not deactivate your account without contacting Sony, so that annoyance is gone. Once the code is activated it's forever availible to download via Account Settings>Download list. So it doesn't affect anyone, so I'm not wrong at all.

Newegg is selling this game for 47.99 free shipping and no tax. There you go.

The 3DS wasn't 249.99?

You can still sell a game without an online code the same way you can sell a car without a steering wheel, it will just be worth less.

When you buy a car used it comes exactly as it was new? No mileage on it, no wear and tear? Wow, show me that car dealership! Also, books are a physical self enclosed media form (not counting digital/kindle) it's nearly impossible to not get the full product. It has nothing to do with drinking corporate koo-aid, I…

But if you desire the game, and you feel it's worth a purchase, how does your friend not getting trophies affect your enjoyment of the product? Trust me, I understand where you are coming from, but if they want to try the multiplayer, play on your account or purchase the game themselves. If I went to your house, and…

How are they bullshit? Please explain how you're entitled to all the content of the game by buying it used?

Everyone saying "I'm not buying it" because it has an online pass need to know that they are not hurting Sony. Anyone not buying because of the online pass, is not buying it because they are going to get it used. And if that is the case, Sony probably couldn't care less. Yes, online passes suck, but as I stated in…

You probably never were going to in the first place. If this is make or break for you, it's because you were going to buy it used, and if so, Sony does not care.

I don't think online passes are the best idea, but why do you think people buying used should get the game in the exact condition as when it was new? Just so you know, in the real world, when you buy something used, it's not always as it was when it was new. Whether it be a car, a house, a CD player, etc. Something in…
