NCAA 12 may be the first one I buy used months later.

why do you have 2 accounts?

Another reason going used is that they make these every year and the resale value is terrible because it is so disposable. There is literally no difference buying it new or buying it used and scratched because you end up getting maybe $2 if you trade it in. Its not like we are dealing with a Zelda game or anything. EA is even ditching manuals too so all you really need in the end is the game DVD or Blu-Ray.

I am not sure why so many people feel the need to let us know their purchase plans. Do they think other people really care?

More power to you, but damn.

I don't think he was whining nor was your post helpful. I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with what he said. I don't understand the need for people to create threads to tell us what their purchase plans are, but I don't think there's anything wrong with it.

Just make sure you buy online if you want to play online, and do so when there is a free shipping deal going on (its drops to $42.99, while in stores it will only drop to $47.99, if you buy used online you can save $7 (assuming you can get free shipping) if you buy used in store you can save $2). Gamestop has adjusted their prices for the online passes but unfortunately in the past where you would save $5 to $10 by buying used now you can only save $2 until the big price drop late in the season/after the season.
