Hi, wasn't sure where to put this request, but just got a homefront game for my kids from the ee and I guess the code allowing the game to be played on xbox live had already been used, so it is no longer valid.  Anyway, my kids like to play their games on xbox live, so does anyone that does not play on xbox live have a code they could shoot my way via PM or EM?  I could paypal ya $5 or something if you like. Thanks!

If that is the case shouldn't you just take the game back to the store.  It seems to me that would mean someone stole part of the game before you even bought it.

You can buy the code for 800 xboxlive points on xbox.

He purchased the game from me and the only code that was included in the game was for some "perk" it didn't include the typical Free 1 or 2 day XBL pass, and I have no use for such a free pass as I'm a Gold member (ends Feb '12).

Ray, I PM'd you the XBoxLive Gold Code that was in my COD/Black Ops Box, hope this helps.

all the 'battle code' does is let you advance past level 5 on xbox live.  it's a one time use code.  it is available to buy on xbox live for 800 points or something stupid like that.

Yep! gives access to certain weapons that don't necessarily have to be "earned". I can't believe they offer that for sale at 800pts, that's absurd!

Great reason to skip that fucking game.  I pay for xbox live, I'm not going to fucking pay to play on a service I already pay for.

A BIG THANKS! to mobhs for giving me a code for free.  The kids are now playing the game on xbox live.  Yes WGPKlaus sold me the game, but was honest and did mention in the ad that a code had been used. Me not being that much of a gamer, figured the code was only for a special weapon or uniform as I know many games are like that, but in this case, I guess the code is needed just to play the live feature.  They probably do this to keep you from sharing the game with friends?

Anyway, thanks to all for responding.  Again the generosity of the mighty body of arfcom-ers shows itself!

What is this "pay to play" stuff?

You can still play online without the code, but it will not let you progress past level 5.  You can still play once you reach level 5, you will just not unlock anymore stuff.

EA has been doing that to keep people from sharing games. Had to enter online codes for NHL 11 and Madden 11 and need for speed.

You say that like the multiplayer in the game works. Can't get on half the times I try and the ability to join friends has been down like a week.

I miss the old days when you could pick up a used game and just play it online without some gay pass code.
