I agree 100%. People wouldn't have to buy used if games cost less from the get-go. That is a big part of the reason why I think games will get cheaper in general when the inevitable digital only era arrives.

it's already imoral to charge the same price for a digital game, since the download version doesn't feature disc, box and other lesser costs. so at minimum, digital sales should be $10 less than phisical copies.

I think it depends. When digital services first come out, it is more of a convenience so they charge more. But as something becomes mostly digital, they should (and do) become cheaper than retail (or at least have way more sales than retail).

you keep saying this, but ive yet to see ANY evidence of it being true. Music went digital awhile ago. Eve, cheapest price is 7.97 bucks new,2 cents less than the digital version. books, hunger games i can buy new for 2.07 dollars, kindle? 5 bucks more than twice as much. Movies are a bit complex, Transformers 3 10 bucks digital, DVD version new is 8.50. Blu ray 13 bucks, but the value is still better since the bluray comes with DVD AND digital in the first place, with those special features, so in that case i dont see why someone wouldnt buy the Bluray.
