Eh, seems overexagerated. I mean, what are the chances for example that your ten friends all have the EXACT same game prefrences as you and would buy ALL the same games?
Also think about when your adding people. Do you personally know 10 people who are going to get an Xbox One?
Ten that share similar tastes to you?
If not then you have to go online to find people. Where you'll be worried about scammers joining up and never buying a game. So you'll be hesitant to add strangers. Sure people on sites like this MIGHT have it made. (while probably still running into your fair share of scammers)
However people on videogame sites are actually a small minority.
I'd guess most people stick with friends they've known in person only. Who may have very different gaming tastes.
As for used games. Used games could get well more then 10 times over if we're talking a short 5-9 hour mostly single player expierence. Which is where games have been going lately.
