If it wasn't for used games I wouldn't be a gamer. It's as simple as that. I just wouldn't be able to afford games.

For sure, this is an issue a lot of people face. There are ways that this could be addressed as people wish to move to digital, but until they are, used game sales play quite an important role in the industry. For now I would say we still need them in their current system. I do hope that we can move to a digital marketplace though. The ability to lower prices by not having the costs associated with actual copies in stores is great for the consumer(in regards to pricing) and retaining the same profits for the developers. But the current mindset won't allow for it to really work that way. Issues with internet connectivity, trading, publishers being money hungry, killing store profits, etc. We won't be there for a while, and I suspect it will be a rocky road.
