@twztid13 Yeah people don't seem to get that it's not publishers vs Gamestop but it's publishers and Gamestop vs our rights and the rights of independent retailers. We need to avoid Gamestop and we need to avoid SP Pass and OL Pass as the independent retailers can't survive without pre owned games were as Gamestop can, and that will result in us guys having less choice and getting bad deals.
Rather that supporting it's costumers Square Enix as defended Gamestop? "As part of Deus Ex: Human Revolution's boxed offering on PC, Square Enix included a third party coupon. GameStop was not made aware of this inclusion and Square Enix respects the right of GameStop to have final say over the contents of products it sells and to adjust them where they see fit in accordance with their policies." This is asinine. We are being treated like this and Square Enix is taking Gamestop's side?
It's clear that Gamestop is in the wrong, but I hope people are smart enough to know that just because Gamestop are bad doesn't mean that Onlive or DD are a good thing. They all are as bad and we can fight them by shopping at independent game shops and and not buying in to intrusive DRM or SP/OL Pass systems.
I'm glad that Gamespot is covering this story in such a big way, but they need to do the same with the Single Player Pass that id are using with Rage as it is just as bad as this.
