EA Releases Online Passes for Free
EA have ditched online passes, thanks in part to the way that at least the Xbox One handles used titles, but they've gone one step further than that. Starting this week and going on over the next few weeks, EA will be releasing their previous online passes to fans for free. If you have pre-owned copies of games still playable online, it's only a matter of time until you'll be able to jump in to the multiplayer fray for absolutely free.

Rise of the Triad coming soon to digital stores, 1995/2013 cover comparison
The comparison between the covers of Rise of the Triad Dark War and Rise of the Traid 2013 are incredibly similar, but serve as an interesting marker on how gaming has changed over the last twenty years. Whether you're looking at the difference between art styles - that the '95 one was a replacement for actual in-game graphics - or if it's as simple as the zip on Thi's top being in a sightly higher position on the 2013 version of the cover. Either way, the reboot of the shareware classic is well on its way.

At first it was a Wii U exclusive, a game that was supposed to shift consoles, but then Rayman Legends was delayed for the best part of a year so that it could become a multi-platform game.
