Maybe if publishers come out and tells us the reasons why they want used games blocked, people would understand.I don't know if this is possible, but what about this? Each game has a unique code. When you put it in the console, the code goes into a server (whatever you would call it) and is stored there. When you trade it in to Gamestop, they can retrieve the code from the server, and it will treat the game as a new copy. You can still lend your games out without any restrictions. But once Gamestop retrieves the code, Publishers make money off of it when the used game is purchased.
