Most games have little value when they're priced at $50-$60. I mean, even "main" games might be a little pricey at $50-$60. I'm all for buying new copies that are $30-$40 for games that are worth it, but isn't it a waste to buy a game, play it for 10-12 hours, and the put it away? Now yes, quality of experience > amount of hours played in some cases, but there are plenty of games where you can have both. Unless you feel some incessant need to buy EVERY game you could ever want, I wouldn't suggest buying new games, at least not at $50-$60.
In direct response:
1) Boxes are clutter, and anyone who has many many games understands this well. Especially if you move around every few years.
2) Console loyalty is a silly silly thing. I'm a believer of liking good games, not just supporting Sony or MS or Ninty.
3) Considering many people dislike DLC, I don't see how that's a good thing. And like video game movies have been good ever.
4) All well and good, but why pay $60 for something if you can get it for $35 later? Unless you "need" it right away.
5) This is fine, buying new games later is great, and I do it often.
6) If people bought all their games on release date instead of waiting until they are at a lower price (whether used or not), many people would own fewer games.
