Macatak911's solution is more simple: offer a $10 discount for digital games. One less copy on the market for resale. But we all know that won't happen.



I don't see why they haven't figured it out already. I went on the Playstation store a few weeks ago out of extreme boredom to see if there were any interesting games to download, and the prices were insane. They were charging $30 for Uncharted 3. The game is almost 2 years old and is available used online for $8. frick, they can charge more than that and I'd have bought it digitally out of convenience, but at least come close.

It's because they have to make as much as possible off of first party sales since they lose so much to second party/used sales or they have no incentive to be in business. Even on two year old games
