GameStop cuts a deal with Microsoft and now The Cartel is complete

Whatever doesn't matter just get rid of all our rights IDGAF.

Don't like it find a new hobby. Game are more expensive to make. People pirate all the time. Studios have been closing down left and right. They have to protect their investments.
Welcome to the real world. Being a whiny bitch does not help. They will survive without you. All your crying does is show everyone that you are a baby that can't deal with change and expects people to drop to your every needs.
I don't like it either but I have been gaming for so long I would not know how to live without it. I accept it.

Its funny every developer or publisher that I read interviews on or speak on twitter in private hates use games.  Every single one.  All hate piracy too but that's a given. 

 

One developer I spoke with stated he fvcking hates used games but he and his company has to put on a face to the public that they are against DRM and all for the gamer as a PR move.

This will be my exact response towards Microsoft when people finally figure out how to crack the XBone and pirate the next Halo and Gears. :)

Does Gamestop even exist in Europe?

You don't have to find a new hobby because you don't like this practice. You can just regress into the 40 years of games that didn't have DRM restriction. There is also the PC, Wii-U, 3DS, and possibly PS4 to turn to.

And this is how MS will get money from used games. People get fooled so easily.

"Today, some gamers choose to sell their old disc-based games back for cash and credit. We designed Xbox One so game publishers can enable you to trade in your games at participating retailers.  Microsoft does not charge a platform fee to retailers, publishers, or consumers for enabling transfer of these games. "

"Third party publishers may opt in or out of supporting game resale and may set up business terms or transfer fees with retailers.  Microsoft does not receive any compensation as part of this."

Oh really? :P

I mean if this isn't proof publishers are the ones who have been putting on the pressure, I don't know what is ...

sheep of society right here folks ^^^ Fvck consumer rights!

Gaming is a business, sure and as any modest business they must catter consumer attention through inovation, not cheap tactics that only exist to hurt consumer right. If they want profit give us value for their product. As every business it can thrive and it can fail. Thats how "business" works. That gives them no reason to fvck honest consumers.

The Xbox One is in serious trouble... this might help a little bit, however I still don't think it will fly. Microsoft has already damaged their reputation with all the negativity surrounding them. I seriously hope this shit never takes effect or isn't a hit. The policies surrounding it still suck... it has nothing to do with "changing with the times" that is utter ignorance. It is about not bending to the BS!!! The times do not HAVE to change, that is what these piss ants at Microsoft and other companies say and some consumers are like... "oh well it must be true then." Microsoft lost the HD format war, and I think they will lose this war too... however, this one is much bigger. Like a couple others said, if Microsoft wins.. you can kiss gaming as we know it goodbye.

1. Yes, I've that right. Dont you have the right to buy a used car? a used book? a used DVD? so why exactly are games diferent? Someone bought it, they gave their money. People should be able to do with the product they bought whatever they pleased.

2. No, you're wrong. Dont make assumptions taken out of your a**. Most games I bought this gen were new. However I sold the ones I didnt like and kept the ones I liked. So, if I dont like a game must I be stuck with it forever?

You're an idiot

thats why steam and gog do well in business.

One is easy to pirate and the other doesnt even have drm. Keep hiding behind pirating to protect microsoft. All you do is show how much an idiot you are.

Wow let the Lemmings Keep Xbone. Just look at the freaks in this thread with their subhuman level of reasoning. It will be great to have them all on Xbone like some forbidden island for the braindead. Let them have it. 

All we can do is hope that there are not alot of people as dumb as timbers out there.

WTF do you people expect. These are businesses. They are not in the business of charity. The entire ecosystem of xbox/playstation is designed to extract as much money as possible from the buyer. It has been so obvious that this was coming- look back at the last 8 years - DLC/MICROTRANSACTION/LIVE fees/online pass/avatars/10bucks to change your Screen Name etc... They probably made a million bucks from people changing their sn. Numbers dont lie folks.

None of this will matter because as soon as the general masses realise the hassle and hoops they have to jump through just to play some games they'll stop buying the xb and go to either sony or nintendo leaving ms to pick up the wreckage that is the xbone.
