Mmm...I've got mixed feelings about this. GameStop has been ripping people off for years but so have developers and console makers. This just pushes $ony even closer to enabling their no used games policy. As it stands, I would rather have GameStop and have an option.

On the bright side, the market should soon be flooded with even more used games which should make the price drop for a while.

Gamestop has screwed over devs more than pirates have. They can profit from a single game numerous times as opposed to the devs only seeing that money once

They still aren't going to see any more money from $ony either. They just want to be able to sell that DLC. That's all another debate though. Most games I've pirated I wouldn't have bought in the first place. Or you take games like Far Cry 3 that I liked so much I went and bought it because I pirated it. I'm sticking to my guns. I don't trust $ony and I think far more people are going to be unhappy with them when they get what they want. The Playstation core fan base is a very whiny and spoiled fan base. I can't wait to hear them when all I have left to say is, "I told you so". Saying that Gamestop screws devs pretty much means that devs should get paid every time anybody sells a used game. They get paid once. I don't get ripped off by GameStop because I'm not stupid. I sell my stuff on ebay or Craigslist first. But I'm not gonna give game devs a cut out of it. I doubt pawn shops, thrift shops, or anybody else is gonna give devs a cut from used game sales either.
