Absolutely not.

They want us to pay for their mistakes.

Why do they keep pulling used game DLC tricks if they are so confident in the quality of their game?

Stop making movie games and offer some replayability and maybe people won't 'rent' your game.

 

I am sorry but statements like this are utter nonsense.   No matter how good or bad or replayable a game is you'll find penty of copies on sale second hand.   Quality of product has little to do with it.

Yeah every game has a preowned version, I'm not saying they don't. The better games keep their value closer to RRP and there are less of them though.

I doubt Nintendo or Infinity Ward feel the need to pull DLC tricks.

 

Well, no, because Infinity Ward is too busy planning their p2p (pay to play) Call of Duty.

Mass Effect 2's DLC is fine. I just sincerely hope that retailers let their customers know that the may need to do an extra purchase for some games.

As to the original topic, yes/no. I think that used games shouldn't be able to be sold until 1 or 2 years until after release. And maybe also a reduced price on new games. Neither will happen though. So, I think there need to be changes, but actually 'punish' the consumer? That's ridiculous, no way.
