I'm not fluent in English, but you've misunderstood : what we call "used games" shouldn't be any different than a "user blu-ray" or "used ipod" or "used jacket" in that it is something you bought, you own and so you can do whatever the hell you want with it like you would with any other "used" product.

So what greedy publishers are trying to do by controlling, preventing or taxing the lending, giving or selling of what you own is a first and should be completely illegal.

Obviously most people agree but what kills me is those media trying to make us agree by bending arguments, and the few people who end up agreeing.

I understand what you're saying, in that publishers try to control the game aftermarket with an EULA, but as you said, the first sale doctrine basically makes EULAs completely null and void for physical copies of games.  Therefore, by circumventing it with these anti-consumer DRM schemes, the companies are arbitrarily deciding that the law doesn't apply to them.  They'll get away with it somehow, like they have been with PC games, but not before getting hit with a great deal or legal conflict.

For the record, in case some big publisher is magically reading this, these same practices are why I can count the number of PC games I've purchased in the last decade on one hand.

Exactly. Since they cant legally use the EULA on us until the games are fully digital what they've put on the books are only warnings which basically mirror what is current in PC gaming. They have decided to monitor their product which they are selling to you. If a company does that...thats the way they feel. 

You title confused me a bit there....

Just like the dude in the video, I'm tired of repeating myself as to why used games are not the problem (people just don't fucking listen). But it's all corporate greed. These publishers/dev think too much about short term and not enough long term when marketing their games. They think can make big money if they invest all/most/a lot of their budget on one game.

Most of these companies think they're Hollywood. They invest 60+ million dollars on a game with pretty graphics, hardly any content, and not enough game play and depth. It's a few hundred thousand to a million or two shy from their expectations. What do they do? either complain that things like used games weren't helping their sales, or they start providing DLC for a premium price to make up for their losses.

That's what they're doing. They develop/release a game with very little replay value that gamers don't feel it's worthwhile to keep. They age so much faster that they're not that fun to play anymore.

If this keeps going then we might see another crash. Release a crappy game, it doesn't make money, closed for good. So yeah the concept of used games will cease to exist someday.

Okay. I wasn't trying to offend, and I kind of guessed that English might not be your first language. I do basically agree with what you're saying, about corporations trying to control shit. Thankfully, Nintendo and Sony seem to not be falling in step behind Microsoft, which is good.

To join on in on this "licencing" and EULA argument (and again I won't target anyone, but I can't fucking bear people trying to defend these recent and corrupt laws)

What licensing defines, is absolutely not the ownership and every right that are tied to it like lending or selling, but merely defines the conditions of used.

And these conditions are not written in the constitution or law : it's a contract between you and the company you bought de product from BUT it DOES NOT cancels or circumvents consumers laws and such. That's why licences are contracts defined by companies that might even be illegal

Im getting an Xbox One. Makes laugh that it pisses of so many people.

Your entire premis is just plain wrong.  When you purchase mass effect you are not buying the intellectual property and ownership of mass effect you are purchasing the rights to play mass effect.  Just like when you buy a song or a cd or a book or a movie you do not have the right to market mass effect. If you sell mass effect you sell your rights to the use the game.

the only lie being told is the one you are suggesting.

It doesn't matter. Enjoy your Xbox One. Other gamers care about their rights to ownership and for Microsoft to put paywalls and account locks on peoples accounts is screwed up. If you don't think its wrong, thats perfectly fine, enjoy paying full price for all of your games in a weird economy and having zero ownership over your games.

Stage you continue this notion that you own "your game", you do not.  You own the right to use the game under the terms of sale.  It is not a jacket, a table, or a car...it is intellectual property that while you do have the right to sell your rights to a used game store, when you sell you sell your right and the used game store inherits that right until they sell.  

Microsoft Is not saying you can't sell your right to use the game, all they are saying is that new purchaser of that right must also pay royalty to the publisher,  this is the correct understanding of the law and just like peer to peer jerks back in the music theft days gamers need to respect the law.
