@Wesleypipes777 Exactly, they are seeing all the money left on the table and want a piece of it, and can you really blame them considering the costs and effort Gamestop puts forth compared to the devs/publishers when making a AAA title? I don't think I can.

People keep making book, movie, car etc. resale comparisons, I see the similarities but I also see a massive discrepancy. These mediums do not have a single international multimillion dollar entity that controls the vast majority of resale.

I think the 'ride' he's referring to is the $5 you get from Gamestop for selling them a brand new $60 game which they then turn around a sell for $55. I'm not sure how anyone can defend that especially considering the amount we save as consumers is minimal at best, and the revenue the company makes is absolutely massive for the effort/money they put in.

To me, the best comparison I can think of for the used games industry is the bottled water industry, who sell common tap water for massive profits. I don't know why people defend it so vehemently.

@MetalZombieII Sure you can, it's no different than a greasy politician flip flopping on a highly unpopular and controversial issue. They change their position not because they want to, but because they have to.

@AloeVera4 The 'voice actors' were pre-recorded people playing the game with an edited in 'over the radio' sound.

P.S. You're both morons arguing over the internet like a bunch of dudebros.

So? Could have got XCOM: Enemy Uknown, Dues Ex: Human Revolution, and Uncharted 3 for free on PNS+ last week. And those are just the ones I took note of because I liked them, there were a few others as well.

@HenrySix They didn't admit they were wrong, they just caved to public out cries. There is a difference.
