Looks like PC Gaming will be the only reliable gaming system in the future.

Main three reasons I never buy a game when it's launched:

1. Incomplete (they'll release the rest of the story later via Paid DLC)
2. Terrible (Boring broken game and filled with glitches/bugs)
3. Overpriced (Ridiculous price)

After 3-6 months the price has decreased, but the used copies are usually cheaper, and when it's "used - like new" I have no reason to refuse it.

Except, for those with Online Pass, I'd hate to re-buy it for 800 MSP.

I happily paid for The Walking Dead episodic game by TellTale Games, it was extremely cheap, though.

Have a feeling this is a ploy by Sony to force used games companies to hand back some of the profits they making on used games to the devs/publishers. If they don't they close the market that feeds them, getting others like MS, Ninty, EA, Sega, Ubisoft etc on board would do that.

the only reason i will probably buy a ps4 is for gt6 (game actually takes enough of my time that i feel buying it new is worth it).... i'm going to buy a ps4 used though i'm tired of sony's crap, and all this bs about devs not getting money from games...

3. Overpriced (Ridiculous price)" - fanboysarestupid

if gaming companies would work on their games for a year longer debugging and release a complete game, then i would pay full price for the game, but if they continue to release half-complete pieces of crap and then want to charge me more for DLC that they had done before the game was even released screw them! i'm not supporting crappy devs anymore... i'm tired of seeing the same crap in every new game that comes out. (i'm not saying gt6 devs are holy or good, but the driving aspect of the game is always good, and really hope they dont make it so freakin hard to get cars like the current ucd in gt5)

Who are the Devs really? EA are not devs.

What I am about to say is NOT true for every case but for most cases it is. It is just the ****ty corporate world we live in.

EA are not Devs. When EA makes a game it is usually made by another 2nd tier dev, who could and this is for real be outsourcing up to 90% of the coding to the 3rd world. Yes that is right Mr Patel/Apu (from Simpsons, i couldn't help myself sorry ) at the corner store/7-11 down the road's sister's husband's 2nd cousin's cleaner's half brother's son could be the poor SOB writing some of the code in some shanty town in India and be getting paid 33 pence or around 50 cents an hour for it. When you pay the extortionate amount of money you do for a full priced game 1st time then every other shark in the supply chain gets paid off that boy's hard work who ironically believes he has made it in the world!!!!! poor sod. I was told from a reliable source that this was the case for one of the FIFA games in the past few years. However it was not India it was somewhere close to it though.

So when people keep saying support the developer, support the developer! to me that sounds like we must support the Egyptian slaves buy allowing Pharaoh build his bloody Sphinx or Pyramid. But that is okay as long as the poor slave who is shat on, screwed from every orifice slave thinks he has made it in the world. he has got a job, he counts... No friend you only count as a statistic!
