    Hey.
     
    I've been feeling like giving BLOPs a go recently and I have a question; The multiplayer is not code based, right? As in, you do not need to enter a code that comes with the game in order to play it (A CD Key if you will).
     
    I've heard a lot of talk about finding ways to make profit off the used game market and I'm quite certain this would impact the game rentals market as well, though I'm not sure if this practice has been applied to that scale already.
     
    So, what's the word? Go or no go?

    And it is EA who has been pulling to online pass for stuff. I do not think the PS3 version of Blops requires any code at all.

    No, no, and go.
     
    The only thing that may piss you off is the hacking, but I think that's cooled down a bit. I was 3/5 (clean/total) on MW2 the other day before I realised that I was bored of the game and now need a new one.

    nope, there is no code for online. it's EA who does that type of thing. i haven't bought a EA game to look at the codes.
