Is it morally wrong to buy a used car? Of course not. I've bought some used games and it's simply the publishers fault for not printing enough copies. Their loss.Nifty_Shark
No, There's a used market for everything and no one complains. Games shouldn't be any different.BuryMe
The guy who compared buying used games to buying a used car pretty much hit the nail on the head.

I'm on the fence on the issue, but i thought that it would be worth posting to point out that the used car argument is intrinsically flawed. The reason is that cars (and any mechanical device, really) suffer from degradation, or wear and tear. digital products do not suffer from any comparable amount of degradation. Buying a brand new Cadillac is not the same as buying a Cadillac with 10,000 on the odometer, whereas a used copy of Fallout 3 will play exactly the same as a new copy.A game is really no different then any other object bought or sold. Used cars are a perfect example. A lot of people factor in resale value when buying a new car and with games I do the very same thing. If buying or selling used games is immoral then garage sales, flea markets and ebay are all immoral also.
