    I'm not saying I'd do it (way too time consuming for very little profit, if they'd even sell that well) but I wouldn't put it past some other people.

    Or you can just never buy gutted "new" games. I haven't for about 10 years now.

  3. Good. Used game sales are going to kill the industry. Games aint cheap to make.

    It is rather sad to see how many people buy games used though. In the new Battlefield you get extra maps for buying the game new - when one of those maps pop up online, the server just empties out because people dont have the free map code.

    Used game sales have been around since games were sold. The industry has grown from zero to a $25 billion industry in the US alone in that time. There is absolutely nothing of fact backing up this statement.

    Or make a good enough game that 40% of the copies aren't sold back to Gamestop within two weeks.

    Just an idea. Throwing it out there.

    I'm always amazed that whenever a thread like this appears, there are always some nutjobs defending practices that have negative effects on the consumer.

  8. Haha look at what the Battlefield gameplay designer just tweeted:
    News Flash to people who buy used games. You might be playing our game, but you're not our customer. You're GameStop's customer now.

    Used game sales clobbered the industry from the tiny niche dork hobby it was in the 90's all the way down to the giant it is today.

    We must stop used games before it is too late.
