| Hawk said: Heh. I like the "Buy it used, and you'll have to fork over an additional $20 (which goes straight into the publisher's pocket) if you want to play online." like it's such a terrible thing that the money goes to the publisher of the game. Oh no, anyone but them. |
i'd much prefer if the 20$ came outa my pocket and went to, well...back in my pocket (or the other pocket if the bill wants a change of scenery or something)
i for one, rarely buy used games. but hey, stores don't hold onto games forever. when i bought my gamecube, i desperately looked all over for REmake to no avail. finally one day, i walk into ebgames (and was swarmed by a legion of super expensive used games) and luckily, lo and behold, REmake sitting there on the shelf waiting for me to snatch it before the old lady who was wobbling her way toward it.
I do not want to be paying extra or have to deal with any problems for a game the company,developer or publisher or whoever don't have any right to anymore. That product was purchased, they got what they wanted for it. that person sold it which they had every right to. now dun come after me whining for more money. i don't see ferrari whining for a piece of the increased value of an old car sold on the used market or mcdonald's charging the toilet for the double cheeseburger with bacon i had earlier today
