game makers hate the used game market.
Yep.
PC was well ahead when it comes to going the way of digital downloads.
I really wouldn't mind if consoles went the way of digital download only, at this rate, they will be. Maybe not this next generation, as much as after that. But they really just need to constantly flood those deep discount offers like Steam does.
Developers do their best to inconvenience bootleggers, but end up pissing on legit gamers in the process too.
Have been saying for years that PC developers just need to abandon physical media & go digital download only, if they want to effectively combat pirating.
