Electronic Arts Removes Online Pass Features for Several Xbox Live Games

The company is making good on its promise to remove the optional online requirements.

A few weeks back, Electronic Arts stated that it was doing away with the Online Pass activation feature for its game releases moving forward.  We had no idea at the time that the company was going to do it with some of its previously released games as well.
