    Bad Company 2 xbox 360 VIP code

    Last Friday I was able to finally play BC2 online on my xbox 360 I also entered that VIP code I had with the game. But do you really get??? Does it mean I get that so called new map pack for free??? Bit confused with it as it says you all DLC content free, but that new map pack requires you to pay for it.

    Yeah, you should have the 2 new map packs for free, although they're already on the disc.. in the store section they should have a green icon thingy instead of orange or vice versa (haven't been on it for a while).

    Re: Bad Company 2 xbox 360 VIP code

    The VIP code is EAs way of combating the "Trade in Culture". So, you buy the game and get a code, enter it for new maps and game modes on existing maps. It's stuff you already have.

    However, if you buy it second hand for £20 or so, and someone already used the code, you have to buy the VIP code for £10. This means that the money EA didn't get, coz you bought it second hand, they still get something out of you buy unlocking the maps and modes (that you REALLY need coz of the limited amount you'd have otherwise).

    EA HATE the trade in culture. That this is your punishment for 2nd hand, cheap game buying. The sods.
