A way to kill the game market.
Im not going to spend $60 on every fucking game i want to play, especally if its shit.
I rented over 100 games on Xbox, and iv only bought maybe 5 of them. If i cant rent games that i can full play (no bullshit $5 to play online) then im done with Consoles, ill take my ass and go back to PC, you can call me Shio number 2!
The correct way to combat used games is to offer a free incentive, like EA is doing with Bad Company 2. I bought the game new for $60 even though i already had the code (got a spare code from a friend) but i still bought it new just to support DICE. If you offer free DLC with new games then people will buy them as long as the DLC is worth it.
Another option is what EA is doing with BF Heroes, instead of it being free, sell the game for $30 and sell it in stores, but make it where you can buy new constums and new guns for $0.99 each,People LOVE to buy stuff, i know i would spend another $5 for additional L4D2 outfits or even to play as L4D1 cast. You can sell a game through Digal Download for $20 on consoles but as long as you have stuff to buy people will buy it.
The minute major companys start taking away multiplayer functions from rented games, im done with console gaming. Its getting way to expensive to properly enjoy games. Steam is the future if they start this bullshit.
