This is the reason why video games are different.
A unsold copy can retain a high value, but the moment you purchase it, open it and play it, it devalues.
Try it, buy a game, go home, and play it. Then try to sell it back to a game stop, I assure you, it devalues.
I agree I feel that taken king should cost less.
However, me complaining will not change the outcome.

Then what will change it? Silence?

Edited by GigabyteZ3r0: 6/18/2015 4:20:26 AMThe concept that it can be changed is a foolish one. We, the consumers are responsible for the current environment. We support gamefly, game stop, pirated copies. A business only makes money from the initial sale, so to combat the resales lose they developed DLC. All those second hand purchases and rentals have brought us to where we are. Companies now expect to make more money off the DLC, because that can not be resold, or rented. You want to change it you have to change gamers mind set first. This is not a social injustice, this is not suffrage, this is not the holocaust. This is business, the moment DLC are no longer profitable it will change.

I understand what you are saying but GameStop imo is not a good example as GameStop is a business and just wants money so they try to buy the games cheap to make their money back.

Everything is a business. Bungie is a business. First rule of business, make money.
