Sell your games for $1.

This is perfect... quick, pitch it to the publishers so they don't have to suffer people re-selling anymore.





Why not just sell 2 versions, a cheaper one that is anti-used and the original priced one that can be used.



1. Stop making games.
2. Download only
3. Online registration codes/link the software to the hardware
4. Games with an expiration date
5. Onlive method (streaming games)

6. The Ubisoft method: all of the above



This makes perfect sense. It's not like game developers need money to make games.

BUT THEY WILL ALSO SELL MOAR GAMEZ WHEN SHEEP!1!11!!1



I havea busines proposal im working on that could make both sides happy.



lol at 1$ a piece they wouldn't make a cent. It would cost nearly a dollar just to manufacture the game. Then when you factor in shipping and the retailers cut and the hardware manufacturers cut you've likely got negative 20$ a copy lol
