anyone with a brain knows that this is a smart business decision, and all u cry babies need to shut it, game comapanies have been droping like flies, all devs are not millionares at all, they are not adding cost to new game buyers, just wait untill it drops in price if 60 is too much, amazon drops games to 40 after a month or so, buy it there, there are other ways too, sony isnt doing anything wrong here...and i got no problems with this

We will see how well it works for you when the online community for the game you bought dies a year after it is released. Used games contribute to the long term success of an online game on a console. Sony is just experimenting with this until next gen when they start charging for their online multiplayer.
Community dead on 1 year.? I still play Warhack from time to time and there is always like 170 games going on and is and old game. Used games don't contribute to sony in any way.
[QUOTE="hexashadow13"]So Sony making you pay for the games that you play online with is wrong, yet MS making you pay on top of buying the games isn't? Buying used games is more or less piracy. It robs devs of money, which is the same thing that piracy does. If you find piracy wrong and not used games then you're a hypocrite.EmpCom
Lol yeah right you could say the exact same thing about buying anything second hand but i dont see the car companies complaining or the electronic companies or furniture makers etc etc .
yeah a guy selling his great car gets to buy another great car!
and if the car is well made he can sell it for more
companies tell me that buying the game used is not as good as buying the same game new

It's not. The publisher and developer who actually made an investment in the game aren't seeing a dime and for all intents and purposes it's a lost sale. It doesn't contribute whatsoever to future game development and only serves to line the pockets of retail merchants.
Publishers owe people buying their title used absolutely nothing.
This is why I throw my games in the trash after I'm done with them
