if both sides made money off the sell of used games than this wouldn't be a problem. they need to find a way to balance it so it will be fair and profitable to retailer, publisher, and developer. what if the sell of used games caused a very important studio to close? Epic, Insomiac, or level 5 just to name a 3.


If that was the case... it would be Epic, Insominiac or Level 5 put out series of bad games that few people bought... and the people who did buy them sold them back because the games were shitty.

If any company goes out of buisness because of Used sales it's a GOOD thing.

Used games aren't crippling anything.  It's bullshit corporate propganda because they want to get away with charging the consumers with more.

Used game sales aren't any worse then the PS2 era... people weren't complainging then.


I mean hell... most used games aren't even purchased until the new versions are hard to find on shelves in the first place... and the used versions that ARE on the shelves before then... are there because the person who bought it didn't like the game.

By destroying the used game markets all you do is destroy your "saftey net" for new buyers.  End result...

LESS people take risks and buy full price games.

Instead people buy less games in general, still buy used where they can, but buy less. 

good point. but the part about crippling was used as a senario. i haft to dissagree about a company going out of busness being a good thing. if all stores selling food went out of bussiness then we'd all become farmers. can you see tyour self being a farmer?

 

i agree wih the last 5 sentences.
