Yes they do.
Otherwise you know... gamestops wouldn't be a problem because they'd be.... Illlegal. When you buy a game you do own the rights to distribute that copy.
Buying a used game from gamestop is no different then buying a new game from gamestop in terms of rights and the law.

It's not really about the law, but it is about not giving money to people who have made the game
|
Once again.... why do they deserve money?
Think about this for a second.
John buys a game... hates it.
Sells it to gamsetop Jim buys it used.
Why should they be entitiled to Jim's money? John clearly hates it and sold it back.
All used sales do is punish people who convince people who don't like there games that they would like it.
Say I buy a game... I hate it. I give it to my friend for free. They no have to pay 10 dollars for the online... why? Why do they have any right to anymore money when the first purchase was very clearly an unsatisifactory outcome?
They already got their money for that purchasee.
If I buy some pasta at a restraunt take a bite and don't like it... and then give it to my girlfriend... should my girlfriend be forced to pay the restruant 5 dollars? Because they were the creators of the dish? That's completly asinine.

Because Jim wants to play the game that they made. It is not about a physical thing, but it is about a piece of software really.
Of course you don't have to pay for the pasta, because the prodcut has partially been used up, a game is not used up, you get the same things that you would if you bought the game new, except for EA. And so if you want to compare it to you eating some pasta, then actually EA's deal seems fair if you are not going to get the full dish, you can just have what is left

Ok, instead of Pasta... it's a TV. There, the product isn't "partially usesd up".
According to you, Jim owe's Panasonic some money.
If you think it's fair... I think you have a pretty warped world view... where companys BENEFIT from having games people buy but don't want.... and therefore give away.
In effect, benefit by making shitty games or misreprestenting the games they sell.
