Regarding XBOX One!!

This political move is not in regards to the gamer, its got everything to do with companies like Game Stop, Best Buy, GameFly and other profit leaching smaller gaming stores to stop selling used games.

If the company sells you 1 copy of a game they make 60 bucks. Then you sell to a 3rd Party for alot lower you get 5 - 19 dollars. Then the 3rd party resells that copy at 55 dollars, which is rather common. This goes on and on for years and 3rd party sellers are making more than the company that actually developed it. How it all does this make sense?

It Gamestop, GameFly, Bestbuy resell program, and other smaller companies that are keeping the price of games so friggin high, because they are not seeing the profits, those other companies are. Go ahead and pull up the ticker simbols.

So now Microsoft is paving the way, and when they are pulling in higher profits and less cost of goods, then you will see that this was a good buisness model.

I cant wait to see the reaction of your face when you pay 60 dollars for a new game, but for me when I buy my Xbox One game its only 40.

Better yet when you buy a used game for 50 bucks and im buying new ones cheaper than you can get a used one.

Blizzard Entertainment was a prime example when they released Diablo 3, World of Warcraft, Starcraft II by attaching these to a Battle.net account, 100% of the proffits came to the company, not a 3rd party.
