So how does everyone feel about this? Or about used games in general? Will this make anyone here change their mind about choosing Microsoft's next console when it comes out?
I honestly think the whole "no used games" thing is pretty ridiculous. I buy a lot of used games, especially when it comes to games I'm not sure I'm going to like. And to me, a lot of the games coming out these days don't seem like they're worth their $60 price tag. I have purchased very few games that were longer than 10-15 hours AND were good enough to play through again. When I shell out $60 for a game, I expect it to keep me busy for a while. However, if they enforced the "no used games" thing AND lowered prices, I think I'd be fine. Lowering the price of a game seems like a doable thing, because developers won't have to make up for losing profits through used games.
So what do you guys think?
