GameStop the ScapeGoat: Why Used Games Debate Isn’t So Simple
Spectacular rebuttal to the “buying used games is the same as pirating it” argument from game developers.
“Are the game industry’s sales woes the fault of jerkface used games buyers peeing in the pool and causing every game publisher not named Nintendo or Activision Blizzard to lose money?
Or is it that not enough people want the games that they’re making for the price at which they’re trying to sell them?
If it’s the latter, then the games business is broken, and attempting to fix the used-games problem while ignoring the root cause would be like putting a Band-Aid on a tumor.”
