UPDATED!!! People like second hand games but software companies can't handle the cost.

Selling them back with my brother and them has nothing to do with how good the game is. It has to do with getting money back. Do you get what I'm saying?

I used a example, my brother and his friends. They will finish a game in the first week, just to sell it back. You understand know. Without gamestop, this would not happen at all.

First of all, I'm still not seeing what your anecdote has to do with what I said, except perhaps to confirm what I'm saying - that those games do not inspire their owners to keep the game. I'm betting your brother has a few games that he hasn't sold back to gamestop.

Second of all, I don't see why gamestop is to "blame" for it. If people didn't sell it back to gamestop, they'd sell it to pawn shops, or they'd sell it through eBay, etc.

I get  your point but I see this all the time with younger people like my brother. Your thoughts are only your interpretation of whats happening it's not everyone else's. So in a sense your just guessing whats going on. So my anecdotal evidence has just as much worth as yours.

Before gamestop, software companies didn't have the problems they have today. Also cost where lower. So the only other option is to raise cost or code the game. I rather pay less because people are to cheap to buy new.
