It is and it isn't. They're the ones to start this, but if there's enough apathetic people who eventually realise they've spent too much and can't get the trade in credit on their existing games, they they might see a hit in sales.

The worst thing to do is not like it an then hand over your money anyway. Just do without.

Money talks, yes, but it's a two-way street. The companies will not stand a 2nd hand market kicking them in the ass, and factor the effect of pirated copies.

When gamers try to be inexpensive as possible, it's 'hip' (not Has or Xero's words, just what I've observed); but when the companies tighten their belts and make moves to increase returns it's evil or whatever.

Has is right about the apathy, but for now nobody's paying extra - games are still 60$.

Xero's also spot-on about some games costing 60$ when they don't have the same feature set as others.
