So, they want to make more money, eh?

as awesome as this game looks im put off by things like this.

it should have been a clue when you needed to pre-order to get into the beta that this was not going to be the second coming of Christ. good old EA, even when they have a perfect opportunity to earn a shedload of brownie points, snatch COD's hardcore fanbase and sell themselves as the smart alternative greed gets in the way

I didn't plan on buying this second hand anyway so I'm not too bothered, more so because I'll be getting the PC version in which case games can usually only be activated once.

exclusive content

translation = "useless tat"

i miss the issue here so we get free stuff for buying it new but dont if we get it secondhand, You have to pay for DLc on the xbox 360 and ps3 so whats the big issue.

It's more than likely buying it secondhand you'll miss out on a couple of guns and a few maps

you don't have to pre order to get beta codes, lots of GSP's have been giving away keys.

I'm guessing this is only with downloaded copies? so those of us who wanted the 2 1943 weapons by pre-ordering from Game (in the UK) need not worry...?

But that is freegin tight of them to do that; perhaps the evil ea's doing?
