But in theory you can sell them on? The Angry Joe interview said you can"gift" a game once. So you just slap it up on eBay and sell that game.

I never had a issue with Gamestop. The people that I know are Gamestop are very nice people and I have got good deals with a pro membership. It's people like EA who hates used games when we never had this issue during the 80's, 90's and most of the 2000's. People bitch about companies selling used games but no one bitches about selling used cars.

All this hate in this thread because of authenticity checks.  You guys realize when you buy a game now you are only buying a license.  Have you read the agreements in game manuals?  The only difference is that the technology to authenticate this license is more available than it was in 1995.  That is why Steam exists.  There is a reason when you buy a game you cannot return it. The only product you are buying is a disc, so yes if its scratched they will replace it; otherwise you are purchasing a license to the software.

BTW, I just bought Last of Us on PS3 - a first party game.  There is a 'voucher' code in the sleeve to enable any online features.  Sony is actively imposing online authenticating/ DRM on their own titles.  If I were to sell the game after activating the code, what is the pre-owned value now?  The PS4 supposedly will utilize similar methods.  This is just another way to discourage used game sales.

Yeah that exists but only for multiplayer as of now. Xbox will lock you out of the game completely.

Still your licence to do with it what you want, if you want to sell a game on Ebay you can, what Microsoft want is to dictate where you can resell your games.

Ruling was passed In Europe to allow you to resell your online games too, of course none of the companies actually follow it but it's there.

Sony have already said they're removing any kind of online passes in their first party games for PS4, publishers can still do it though if they want.
