You completely misunderstand this thread. I'm telling people they should act on principle. If their principles are that used game trading is bad then they should be supporting Microsoft and Xbone. I'm totally serious. Sony fans who think the used game market is bad should be buying Xbone.
In the interests of full disclosure I've stated my principles.
People should make decisions based on principle, the stronger the support of that principle the more firm and obvious the decision should be. I am strongly in favour of an open used games market, even though I mostly buy games new. Thus on principle I oppose what MS is doing. I don't oppose MS because they are MS, or because they are not Sony or because they competing with Sony. People who are strongly in favour of shutting down used game trading should be buying the console that most closely aligns with their principles. I happen to think their principles are based on false premises, but if they are their principles then they should be guided by them and meaningfully back up companies that are aligned with their principles.
Sony and Nintendo fans should seriously consider their views on this matter, and if they find their views in alignment with Microsoft then they should be buying Xbone.
How is my advocating that some Sony and Nintendo fans should by Xbone poisonous anti MS hate? I really do mean it. They should be buying Xbone. If they are only buying PS4 because of Killzone, or Knack,. or exclusive Batman costumes then they are woefully misguided.
You get that I am basically criticisng a segment of the Sony and Nintendo fan base right?
