The money they pay people for their used games is like them buying blank discs for them to burn on. So yeah, reselling used games can be like pirating. The company who made that game never sees any of that money. |
And the best part is that they made billions of dollars and nobody is accusing them of being immoral thieves that deserve to burn in hell. Thank you for making the point I was trying to make in a similar thread in the PC section. I dont understand why people are trying to defend companies that put blame on their bad sales on piracy. Instead of loading down their games with DRM they should add features that would discourage piracy: ability to play the game without the disc (a huge deal for me), online, a game that people can justify spending 50$ on.
