Online Pass Required for Saints Row: The Third Co-op and Horde play

4.3
Journalists have confirmed that Saints Row: The Third will utilize an online pass system, restricting online play to the game's original purchasers and those who shell out for a fresh key. Though Volition has removed competitive online play from the title, the pass will still be required to access mission elements specifically designed for co-op, as well as the game's Horde – ahem, Whored – mode. You'll be able to pick up SR3, online pass and all, this time next week. Probably by now you already have strong feelings about the issue of gated online play, whether those feelings are “I don't like online passes because I support second-hand sales,” “I love this idea because I work for a major publisher,” or “stop talking about this already, where are the game trailers?” So here's a recent advert for the game: feel free to imagine the clip's victims as either online pass sellers or people who complain about the feature, depending on your leanings.

Alright, it should now be against regulations to require an online pass to play a developers project that you purchased!

iJarH3ad Bad choice right here because Saints row is not very popular for online. when it came out, I believe it will be less than 300 online players.


Over the years it seems that players are slowly increasing on the rise for the online features, although I'd say that the Saints Row series is one of those "Best played with a couple of friends" more than random players online.

its going to be just like fifa, you type a little code in at the start of the game so you can play online. no big deal.

God, I hate online pass.

I went to GameStop and bought Dead Space 2 and it didn't come with an online pass. I couldn't play online or anything really. :((
