Please let the used games thing not be true...or at least have a way so you can borrow and lend games to your friends.

Can you imagine how horrified the CEO's at Gamestop would be about something like this?


I would imagine that they would not really care. Gamestop is already expanding and heavily pushing digital content, tablets, used idevice sales to combat this. Even if they ever did have to close up shop they would probably say "well, we had a good run." Of course they are all millionaires ... would suck for me and other part timers. I enjoy my job there as a nice diversion from college. I suppose I will have moved on by the time Gamestop goes under or restructures itself to the supposed digitial market of the future. Some of my friends, however, that did not go the college route will have to find something else ... not easy now, and I doubt anything they find will be as enjoyable.

Part of me doubts this rumor though. People will not tolerate this since so many rely on used games just to even make video games as a hobby economically viable for them. They get away with this crap on PC because it is a different market, but I don't see this working on consoles.
