I understand the need to purchase used games, especially when used game prices are used as a barometer for a consumer to dictate what they think a product is worth to them. If Game X comes out at $60 new but it's just not that good, a gamer not entirely eager to get his hands on the title may decide "you know what, I'd rather pay $40 for this game when it's used in a couple of months." That's fair. That's logical. Just don't expect to get the entire package you would have had you bought the game new. And of course, for games not of this generation, buying them used is the only way to get your hands on them (with the exception of games that are available digitally). A thriving used market for older games is great, and something I've taken advantage of many, many times in my life.But if you were to go into a car dealership and demand a used vehicle for a cheaper price than what that same car goes for new, yet wanted all of the perks that came with the new car, you'd be laughed out of the showroom. You can have that brand new Chevy Volt with a fresh battery, OnStar support, minimal mileage, a clean and crisp interior and an impressive warranty. Or you can buy that Chevy Volt used, save some cash, and deal with the fact that the battery has degraded a bit, OnStar has been turned off, the interior has some stains, and the warranty has been downgraded. In other words, why is the expectation that when you're buying a used game you should get the exact same product you get when you buy the game new? You get what you pay for. And in the case of Resistance 3, you're paying for the single-player game without online access. Those who choose to buy the game new, as it was intended, get the whole package.
