It might be just me but before I buy anything, I do some extensive research into the product before I buy it. Anyway, I do agree with you that we have a right to resell any games we want once we buy it, but here in Australia I see it as a scam robbing me as a customer more even than the developers. I could spend $110 on a game, if I trade it back in the next day I would get $45 in store credit. That's disgusting and it saddens me when I see a poor kid, come in with his Wii games and gets $12 for 3 of them even though their pretty new and the kid wouldn't know any better. |
You can do research and still end up with a game you don't like. Among both people I know and the internet, I found nobody who didn't like Chrono Trigger. Yet it bored me to tears.
The alternative would be for customers to never take a chance on a game and only buy games they are absolutely sure of. That would be worse than used sales though.
A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.
