But we aren't talking about what the used game is being sold for, we are talking resale value. People being secure that they are going to be able to get money back from their purchase of a game. That was the main points of the arguments in this thread. For ME2, 2 months after release, someone can trade the game into Amazon for $40. ME2 contains the same DLC method as BF:BC2. So it would appear, based on this real world example, that this DLC method will not adversely affect trade in value. Quality of game will obviously have more of an effect, as more people trade in the game, the value of the trade in diminishes.

Oh, the Amazon trade in value. You totally switched gears on me there then.
ME2 doesn't contain the same DLC method as BF:BC2. The ME2 giveaway was more localized... specifically to preoroders.
As mentioned above... the effect would be lessened.
Amazon Trade in value probably would be higher though. Probably 45 if it wasn't for the code.

No, it is the exact same. Code comes in the box of every new copy. So you think Amazon would give the customer $45 dollars for a game it sales new for $49.99?
|
Then why'd all the gamestop commericals tell you that you had to preorder the game to get the content?

Gamestop had some special preorder stuff.
But here is a site to look at for this - http://masseffect.bioware.com/info/cerberus/
"Included in each copy of Mass Effect 2, for both PC (digital and box) and X360, there is a Cerberus Network card with a unique single-use code. Login to the Cerberus Network in Mass Effect 2 and register your code to enlist! Once you are a member, Cerberus Network content is available to you at no extra charge."
And I can verify this because I neither bought the collectors edition or pre-ordered the game.
