Sony has not explained yet what features the code unlocks, but the company has stated that "full online access" is only available after you are given a code. Ars Technica has reported that anyone who buys a title used will be able to reset the title, but it will cost them a fee of $15. Sony still has not clarified as to what features/add-ons the code locks.
If and when more news on this topic is released I will update this thread. Expect an edit soon.

How is this the end of gamesharing?? Misleading title. This is basically the same as EA pass. All major publishers are doing it.

I agree completely. Personally though, I have both consoles and I use my PS3 a lot more as I like to watch Blu-Ray movies in surround sound and PS3 works perfectly for that. Also, I just like the feel of the remote and many other things. PS3 = entertainment. xBox = gaming. That's just my opinion.

You can get online, but you will have to pay a nominal fee of $15.

I believe if you buy the used copy of the game it will be like 5 dollars cheaper, not 15! AT least not for a while
What are you talking about? Used, you get the code free. Unused, you get a cheaper copy but you have to pay to get another code to be able to get online. It will be impractical to buy used titles that have the code as it will end up equaling around the same.

Umm, well gamesharing also becomes impractical as you will have to pay $15 for certain titles.

This code will only be offered on certain titles. The first game to be issuing these codes will be the upcoming title, Resistance 3.

No there won't be any pass for normal PSN games. The full games like infamous won't need a pass either because they're bought from the PSN new you can't by them used therefore no inconvenience.
