Developers on used games (interesting feature)

It's interesting to note the very high number of opinions that say people should be concentrating games users 'want' new, and don't want to resell, rather than trying to stop them reselling.

Re: Developers on used games (interesting feature)
Haven't bought anything brand new for ages and even then it was probably budget releases. I mad a point of not buying mechWarrior4 untill it dropped to £20, for example  ;)

The last game I was like OMG!! when I saw it on the shelf was Street Fighter Alpha 2 on SNES. Although having that made me Mr Popular at school.  :cool:

I'm either tight or just not interested anymore...... :doubt:

I tend to end up purchasing games a month or two after release. It is not intentional, actually. I just do.

Having thought about it, Oddworld:Strangers Wrath was the last brand new game I got. Prior to that, Metal Arms on GC. Both after reading Edge reviews too.
