No Online DiRT 3 Multiplayer for PS3

Competitive multiplayer out until the PlayStation Store returns.

PS3 owners will have to wait until PlayStation Store is back to access DiRT 3's online features.

Even though online play is now functional for other games on the PSN, DiRT 3 owners must redeem the in-box VIP pass to unlock competitive multiplayer, as well as other cool features like uploading videos to YouTube.

Similar to EA's online pass, purchasers of DiRT 3 second-hand will have to buy the VIP pass, which costs �6.29 ($10) on PS3 or 800 Microsoft Points on XBL. If you bought the game new, you don't have to buy anything; however, it is still needs verification by the Store.

Codemasters' communications director Andy Gray told Videogamer that while "it is a really unfortunate situation", they were confident that "everything is being done to rectify the service as soon as possible."
