People still like original versions of games, not download, not remastered, not even Platinum. Reason why FFX, X-2, XII still sell for higher values if the packet is the original one.
That said I agree with the article, while not as a big ripoff, my housemate recently took a load of games to get some cash. In Gamestation (along side Game as owned by the same people), one of the biggest game retailers in the UK, they offered him £85 cash for all his games, we then went to Playtime, smaller retailer with just a few outlets round the country if that, has a better selection of older games too, £110 cash. Quite a difference considering for most games they both sell 2nd hand for the same price.
Althought the smaller store rejected 2 games because they have too many already.
Hmm, pie.
