I honestly cannot see Microsoft blocking used games unilaterally (due to consumer backlash), but if both Microsoft and Sony block used games together, I can't help but think that consumers would be more likely to accept it. Playing the bulk of my games on PC has sort of made me forget about used/rental gaming (in addition to buying MS, Sony, and Nintendo exclusives new), but I imagine that this is a huge deal for some console-only gamers, or simply gamers who like to borrow or rent.
