I understand that they are not the same, but listen to this vid which Badge likes to post, it is scary: |
What does Sony giving you a chance to monetize said virtual goods bad? This also comes down to user choice. EA is making anti consumer choices. Think they'd continue trying to sell guns and ammo if people don't buy? People should be bitching and complaining. Sony is actually giving users an option to sell your virtual items. What Sony is doing, if this article is even remotely right, can only be good. Finished up a DLC you're never going to play again? Sell it to someone else. This gives consumers a way to sell digital items that you'd not have been able to do otherwise. Reading the article again, I'd also like to point out that the writer speculates this is how Sony was planning to handle used games. I really don't see how he came to that conclusion really, so if that's what's bugging you, it's purely speculation as is the article. Though my last words, if this article is right about Sony creating an auction house to sell your virtual goods, which you've bought and is never able to sell, good for Sony. This is quite possibly the first legit way to resell digital games. Not even Steam has this option (Which I wish they did). Which comes back to point, how is this auction house, which gives users more power to do what they will with their goods, as bad as Microsoft's attempt to take away your power with your goods?
