GameStop makes all their profits from used games and accessories. They pay out the ass for the new products, so when products come back to the store they become used and GameStop gets to KEEP the money from sold used games and accessories. So the way I see it, if anybody is being greedy it's the game companies, either making you pay full price or making you pay 10 or 20 bucks for content that SHOULD have came with the game
@AgentZombieMan Well they DID make the game. It's not being greedy. The reason why they made the game is to make money, which Gamestop is taking away from them. Who cares if you have to pay full price for the game? It's only 5 to 10 dollars more, and a lot of the times Gamestop doesn't tsp the games so while they may look good, they're actually broken.
i honestly dont think that they should continue doing this crap where they would put these passes in games because if you buy a used game at GS you dont get the code so you would have to strictly buy new only and renting games they dont put the code in it.,i get we shouldnt complain but we as humans are going to complain anyways
it Would be nice that Basically Game stores Sold Online passes like this. Buy a Brand New game Get the Pass for Free. Buy a used game and have the choice of the Store Adding a Online pass for 10$. theyre not stopping anytime soon. So might as well save us the hasstle of buying a PSN card or Microsoft Points Card, Putting in the Digits, Surfing for the Pass and Waiting FOREVER for it to Download.
I don't mind a pass for online multiplayer, It's games like Rage that piss me off. Actually locking the player out of single player content, it's disgusting. Sure, you can word it differently to spin it into a positive thing, still pisses me off.
My favorite controler was the Big Ass xbox controler becausse its the only controler other than arcade sticks, that was big enough for my hands. All other controlers = tiny
Sony already makes trillions, they own a majority of the music industry, a mass regular tech area, computers, and much much more. Sony does not need to make more and more money off the gamers ignorance. They already get rights to a massive majority of the music in their games. They already save money by using music they can basicly through into any of their games. They bought out one of the biggest record company, a long time ago.
@Bob0p Its worth noting that not only sony will be doing this in the future, alot of other smaller companies will begin to adopt this system aswell. Which is a plus side as more money per game=more money for companies which leads to more small companies surviving.
On the other hand this will be a huge thorn in the side for the retail stores selling their games preowned. They have to buy new games for just under full price ($40-$50)and this makes it difficult to turn a profit without used games.
Hey, why was Lego Harry Potter left out of that November list? Granted, Skyward Sword is what I'm most excited about, but Lego Harry Potter is a big name game coming out in november, too.
I think a law NEEDS to be put in place for used sales. So they have to give a cut of the profit to the devs! Cause its only $5 off and honestly WE ALL KNOW they could drop the price even more but they want to make money! Go to cash converters and you can get a brand new game $40. So they need to either drop the price OR keep it the same and share the profit! Damn greedy bastards!
I don't mind the online pass thing, per se. I rarely buy used games and even more rarely play online hehe.
What bugs me, though, is how the gaming industry for some reason feels *entitled* to a piece of the second hand market. No other business acts like that. You know?
Like Craig said, though, it's happening whether we like it or not. I just can't figure out the way the gaming industry manages to translate potential earnings into actual losses.
Let me guess, they're all pissed about that list not having Samus?
People Samus Aran is a fucking bounty hunter. That doesn't count as a space marine. Although I do think Craig needs to be knocked a peg for forgetting that Fox McCloud has been outside of the Arwing in more than just Star Fox Adventures. (Dude, do your homework)
On the online passes thing, there's an easy solution for companies to do for people who rent games to try them out.
They could provide a temporary pass for people who play the game for the first time, so they can try out the online component and decide whether they want the pass or not.
@drappke woah really? thats kinda strange, well then again in Mexico the closes thing to even play a game is a hacked arcade cabinet with ps1-ps2 games
@sasukegir66 the same loby'ists who got this deal for us now shut down the pirate bay... (but were to stupid to realise there is something like proxy-servers) but I had never heard about those things in mexico...
I play cross hand on arcade sticks as well, but thats because i have cerebral palsy in my right hand, but it don't effect me i still can kick ass at soul calibur 2.
Jared has been playing Minecraft for a year and a half (exactly as long as I've been playing it) and he said he bought it during beta? It wasn't in beta a year and a half ago. =P
To be honest if they rent out games couldn't they just include an account with pw with the game registered ? If you change the PW or so on they have you're name or whatever to check, its the same as if you don't return your game so why wouldn't some place do that. Or if you want to trade you're game in make a new PSN account register the game there play it trade it in, or sell it with the account.
srsly guys, girls nowadays get into porn when theyr 14-15. theyr not much different then guys . before when por wasnt easiliy availible it was correct that it was almost exclusivly a male thing ,but the last 11-10 years its been totally changed. Msot girls these days are into porn. not addicted like amanda but yeah. youy need to drop that old moral pretense that girs in general dont like porn.
Screw YouTube. First this doesn't come up in my inbox and then my comment disappears. Good thing I check ScrewAttack regularly, otherwise I would've totally missed this episode :(
the blunt truth that craigs getting at is...video games are a big buisness and if you dont know by now big buisness will grab you by the neck and squeeze every dime out of your ass
online passes dont matter because you can always wat for the game to drop in price and pick it up new at a discount.the avg game tends to get down to 30 bucks within 4 to 7 months the time can be slower or faster depending on the ttle and its popularity. if youre patient and have a backlog onlne passes are a joke.
