Lost Planet 2's Method For Fighting Used Sales

Trophy whores won't be able to sell their game back... or will they?

Electronic Arts is making used game buyers purchase access tickets to go online with their games. Capcom has a simpler solution to curb used game revenue loss -- keep games from being sold back to shops in the first place... at least for a few months.

From Lost Planet 2's trophy list:

You get the "Running Through 6" bronze trophy when six months have passed after you've started play.

Some have apparently found a technique to cheat the trophy (or, based off the terminology, the equivalent Achievement):

  • 1. Before starting the game, remove the LAN cable and set the clock seven months back.
  • 2. Create save data file.
  • 3. Return to the dash board, connect your LAN cable, and connect to Live.
  • 4. Start up the game and load up the save file.
