Clement,
if you buy a used copy, the developers won't make any extra money off that game because someone's passing on their copy to you. mainly gamestop. they're definitely making a boatload of cash off gamers, which is why I stopped buying there. I believe if you rent from gamefly they might make a little money, but for all I know I could be totally wrong about that as well. I think the pass makes sense in most situations, especially where online is concerned. those servers aren't free to host afterall.

The problem I have with this whole combat pass thing is.. there's nothing wrong with buying used. At least, there shouldn't be. This is just another way for companies to rake in more money by forcing everyone to buy new games. And personally... if I have to fork over a few bucks to get the pass, I would rather pay 30 bucks for a used copy than spend half my life a year from now trying to find a new one for twice the price. lol. Thanks for the accepting tip... though I wish it could be done through the game itself.

Clement,
There is no pass. Well there is, but since PSN isn't up Netherrealm disabled it. nice of them if you ask me as there are probably people that have no interest in buying the game that'll play online for free. when PSN comes back up combat pass will be reenabled. reason these things exist is to try and stop people buying used. lots of companies are doing it now. consider that next time you rent games. if you always buy new you have nothing to worry about though. accepting friends requests will have to be done through the inbox. make sure you're all the way on the top and to the right. then go down 5 times to land on your inbox. if someone sent a request it should be the first one on the message list. just hit x like 3 or 4 times and the game will make this clunking sound when it connects. then just hit ps button to be dropped back in the game. that's it. now can someone tell me how to actually send a request?

Well, I get two days to play without my combat pass... since the store isn't back up I can't activate mine. This whole combat pass idea is just stupid, IMO. And I don't know how to accept friend requests. Haven't worked through that yet.
