How would they block used games? The publishers that is. Sell an online pass, sure, that is expected but what else can they do?

PS3 has the ability to tell if a disc has been played on another console or not. They could potentially include the same technology and publishers could do that check each time you boot the disc up.

Or other possibilities. I'm gonna call BS on this though, none of these companies are dumb enough to block used games.

Don't be too sure. Capcom actually did it on the 3DS with Resident Evil: Mercenaries

say what?!?!
