I can't see why they would put that on the console box though.

So it's more to cut down on second hand consoles than games?

It's part of the Resistance 3 branding just like the bit about PS Move support, not the console branding. It'll just be an online pass like FIFA has to cut down on second hand games.

The Move symbol is on the standalone console boxes though so I'm not sure it's that.

I really don't think they'd put a pass system such as EA's on the box.

Actually, it's just to try and make some money out of second hand games. Currently the publishers / devs dont see a penny out second hand game sales, they want to incentivise people to buy the game new, or at least make some money if the game is brought second hand.

Ah, I read it as being a one-time use code that allows access to online gaming on PSN. Like... the month free XBL Gold you get with 360s, but forever.
