    games on demand require online pass?


    Hi, I don't know if this is the right place to ask but hopefully someone could help...

    I'm thinking of picking up the GOD version of Ghost Recon Future Soldier, but I remember hearing that you still need to buy the online pass for GOD titles. I already own the game on disc, but I bought it used so the online pass code was used. So the only
    reason I would buy the GOD version is for the online pass (the GOD game is cheaper than the pass at the moment)

    Can anyone tell me for sure if they do require purchasing the online pass?

    Thanks in advance!

    :)

    On Demand Game Needs!!!

    Three of the 4 games you listed require Online passes to play. So they will NEVER come to Games on Demand.

    On Demand Purchase - Games With Online Pass

    If I purchase a game from the marketplace in the "on demand" section and the retail disc requires an online pass do I receive the online pass with the on demand purchase or must it be dowloaded separately?

    games on demand require online pass?

    All Games on Demand titles should not require an online pass, as they are new and can't be sold as used.

    Thanks for answering, are you talking from experience or just guessing? As I would assume that any GOD game should not require buying a online pass, but as I said, I definitely remember hearing that they do...

    Actually, unless stated otherwise in the description of the game, games on demand games do not come with the online pass. You would still need to purchase it separately.

    Thanks! I guess I won't be picking it up then. I hate the whole online pass thing to begin with (I already pay to play online with my Live Gold account!), but not being included in the digital versions of games is terrible, especially when their prices
    are generally not at all competitive with the retail disc versions. Stinks of greed to me!

    games on demand require online pass?

    That changes game to game.

    For a sample:

    Mortal Kombat GOD versions come witf online pass (included)

    Dragon age 2 has inlcuded a DLC bonus in digital version in GOD

    Other games like DOA 5 has to buy online pass too

    Batman arkhan city has to buy catwoman "pass"

    You have to search whif people has buyed GOD version of this game to known, because that change producer to producer has no a unique style of sale

  10. Senryu BR I'm not sure where you got your information from but I have DA2 and Arkham City GoD. Dragon Aage 2 has no extra DLC and Arkham City does indeed come with the Catwoman content unlocked (though you must download it separately).

    From my experiences (I buy mostly everything digital) multiplayer is unlocked if the game requires an unlock code to play multiplayer. Most publisher however do not give you the additional content (free DLC with new purchase) unless it's a retail copy of the
    game.

    Sorry to double post, but I found this thread:

    forums.xbox.com/.../1377958.aspx

    So it would seem like the online/uplay pass is included. Result!

    Again thanks for all the replies!

    Hi there iMadgun8! Just to clarify, games sold on Games on Demand requiring an Online Pass for online multiplayer do not include the Online Pass in the purchase price. You can purchase an Online Pass via the Marketplace.

    This came from this thread on Xbox support. It was for Assassin's Creed but the response seemed to apply to all On Demand games.
