The fee for used games is $52. Microsoft & the publisher want their share of the cut to make money of used games because if a game is traded in the publishers get nothing out of if the store that gets the traded game get the profits.

But them again is not like they lose money, because if you are buying a used game is because you will not buy a new one, besides this is rather dramatic, they are just trying to play victim with this.

So if GS has a special deal where they only charge $10 bucks for the pre-owned code wouldn't that help them out? I guess it isn't really well known yet or something so maybe that is why the stocks fell.

Then again I don't understand most financial stuff for shit so who knows.

Nothing has been finalized from my what my friend told me. He did say digitally lending games may be possible.

But you can still bring games over your friends house and play for free. You can also get 2 copies of the same game for the price of 1 which means borrowing is kinda moot (unless you have more than 1 gaming friend) when you could just give it to your friend for free. That's something PC doesn't do. Trust me when I say I'm a cheapass and have thought this through thoroughly with the current information provided. Even if PS4 follows suit, I think you can do this on there too but I'm not familiar with the DRM system that PS3 has.
that second copy would be for backup purposes. im certain these machines will crap out just as often as the others. and what if i dont want my friend to be at my house for the ENTIRE TIME it takes him to beat that singleplayer RPG that i wanted him to borrow? you're insane if you think i would lend him my machine. also the PS3 doesnt have a DRM system(except for maybe downloaded titles, but as i said i stopped buying those a long time ago.)
It was just a possible scenario. Your reading into it too much. I mean EA has games on Wii U but don't intend to make anymore for them.

I will also note that EA wasn't gonna support MS on 360 unless MS let them use their own servers for their games.

thats because EA is an evil and greedy company that needs a REALLY SERIOUS reality check.

We have two xboxs in my house. I want to be able to let them use RPGs I buy without them paying extra money, just like we can do now with all our consoles.
