GameZone's Matt Liebl writes, "Imagine a world in which you could not play any previously owned games on your console. Given the seemingly tightening restrictions placed upon the used game market through Xbox One, and possibly the PS4, it's not too hard to envision this. A scary thought, indeed. It's well-known and well-documented (thanks to a recent #PS4NoDRM campaign) that consumers oppose any sort of DRM on used games. Yet it seems console makers and publishers don't seem to care much about what the consumer thinks -- though they say they do."
"The Barcelona-based (Spain) indie games publisher JanduSoft and indie games developer Juan-Mod, are today very glad and proud to announce that their 3D arcade action-platformer "Teared", is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch) via digital stores." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord brings back the classic experience with revamped graphics and other improvements.
"The Spain-based indie games publisher Firenut Games and Granada-based (Spain) indie games developer Trigger the Monster, today announced with great joy and thrill that their dark fantasy adventure/management game “Search of Light” (AKA SOL), is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
for once I agree with you
Normally, I don't agree with the man. but he's spot on in this case.
Thank you captain obvious.I'll use an example i used yesterday.
I bought Red Dead used since no game stores in my area had new copies.I loved the game.I ended up buying all the DLC Bam R* just made extra money back from all their DLC i bought.
Wow, is the world ending? Am I actually agreeing with Pacther? Then again, you'd have to be real dumb to think otherwise.
Gamestop & other retailers are not better off without used games.
There I fixed it, used games takes money out of the developers/publishers pockets which to me is bad for the industry. Or did GS start developing games that I don't know about.
How is taking money away from the people who make & create the games we enjoy not bad for the industry?
