    Well, I'm not paying for new games that get money to a certain publisher (and/or when they're the developers as well). That's all, nothing beyond. No one told some developers to do business with the devil...ain't my fault.

      I dispise crap stop so I go the route of selling on amazon. I make more money off selling my games than gamestop and I reinvest the money for new games. I cut out the middle man and I don't feel jipped after leaving gamestop. The developers are the ones who hurt and if this trend continues of used games hurting the new games market, we as consumers will suffer because there will be less innovation and a lot of similar games

        They need to focus on release games that we aren't waiting for the 3rd patch to fix major issues that we find in 20 minutes. Don't feel sorry for the developers one bit with used game sales.
        Love how its the in thing now to be against saving money and rising up for the "poor" developers... SMH

        Have no idea where you get the "Less innovation" argument from.
        Similar games. The markets always full of similar games. Has been for years.

          I don't have a problem with Gamestop. I don't understand why, with new games costing upwards of $70, publishers expect to make even more money on resale. It's a money grab IMO; they don't have a leg to stand on.
