Sony to block second hand games on PS4

Sony has patents on a RF tag that will prevent the use of 1 disk on multiple game consoles. This patent could kill game rentals!

RIP GameFly, we've had some good years together. 
So fricking stupid, pay $60 for a game like Dishonored (short campaign) or a game like Homefront (sucked balls) and you're screwed.
Can't sell on eBay, stuck with a shitty game and no way to preview/try it out before you buy.
Will have to trust reviews.

Not being able to buy used games is going to be costly

They better drastically bring down their prices, or go digital or something. That's going to be pretty ridiculous.
I'm not sure why they have this mindset. Wouldn't they rather someone buy the console even if to only play used games? At this point it just seems greedy

I wonder how big of an effect this will have on game prices going down within 2 years of release. I picked up assassins creed 2 for $20 last christmas and enjoyed it the same amount i wouldve enjoyed it if i got it on release day. Without a used games market what is gonna drive the prices of games like that down. I dont really buy used games because the price difference isnt very big, i have sold quite a few games tho

If the 720 does this than I'm going PC/Wii U next gen. This will also make older games hard to find later in the systems life.

Oh my, make it stop. Someone finds a patent among the thousands of patents filed by Sony. People write articles about it.
Then someone takes the same bit of information and makes a claim about a console that hasn't even been formally announced.
Gaming journalism sucks.

I understand but it's a bitch for those who can't afford $59-69 for a new game.

It’s rumored that this technology is already in development at Sony and will be used in the upcoming Playstation 4.
I really wish everyone would calm the frick down about this and let it play out. Sony isn't stupid and this would be a huge killer for them.
