After making Online Pass become a popular and standard practice for games, EA might be testing a new idea to help generate more sales by taking an older game and selling it "a la carte" style.
While the full game for Fight Night Champions is available digitally on Xbox Live Marketplace and PSN Store for $29.99, EA announces they are also selling parts of the game only on PSN with prices varying from $4.99 to $10 for each piece.
The only requirement to the plan is Championship mode has to be purchased regardless if the person doesn't want it due to the mode being the basis for the game.
Buying all the pieces however won't create a real discount nor increase the game's cost due to the parts totaling $29.99 just like the current digital game on PSN.
Quote:
Full game: $29.99
Champion Mode: $4.99
Fight Now: $5.00
Legacy Mode and Boxer Share: $10
Online Play: $10
