Resistance 3 becomes the first Sony game to use an online pass

Sony has joined the growing pool of publishers that are using an online pass system to monetise pre-owned sales of their games.

The new PSN Pass system to be introduced with Resistance 3 will be a one use code that will allow first time buyers access to online features and DLC that pre-owned buyers will need to pay for.

This is almost identical to the online pass systems employed by EA, THQ and, most recently, Codemasters.

Sony said: "Starting with Resistance 3 this September, we will be instituting a network pass program for PS3 games with online capabilities."
