Dead Space 2 bonus DLC workaround for Silver Live subscriptions
Published on
New copies of Dead Space 2 on Xbox 360 come lovingly bundled with a couple of download items, which according to the directions, you can have for free ... by accessing a Gold subscriber level Live feature. Oh.
Never mind, EA have realised their instructional oversight and advised of a workaround so you can still obtain your swag.
The publisher told Joystiq that players can grab their bonus items by visiting the "extras" Dead Space 2 menu and selecting "redeem code".
This works around a package insert advising players to use EA's Online pass system - a feature only available to Gold level Live subscribers.
One-use DLC codes for both the Zealot Suit and Zealot Force Gun are bundled with the Xbox 360 version of Dead Space 2.
