They still won't make much money off me. I mostly buy legal used games for 1/3 to 1/10 of the original price of the game.

True,used game sales are a real beneffit for consumers and piracy is what`s hurting the publishers/developers,not used game sales. DRM is what`s making piracy look great,and not...again...used game sales. The used game sales are being stopped(or tried to at least) with the introduction of DRM,but this ampliffies the piracy and losses.

 

You see, that's why I think the game publishers are idiots.  They're adding to development cost by including DRM which makes the consumers angry.  Its like they're arm wrestling their customers and telling them they have no choice but to buy our software at a price we choose.  Then suddenly they stumble like a bunch of morons tinkering with a shiny piece of technology that everybody and their dog rejected.  Instead why don't they sell at the price that everybody will find reasonable earn profit by selling in volume.
