I don't really understand this fascination with used games, I have never sold any game that I have bought and I don't believe it's some basic right for us to be able to do so.

On a more practical front however are you saying you would prefer the console scenario where you buy a game for R600 and sell it for R350-400 instead of just buying it for R50-150 that is often the case with Steam.

For me buying a game is like purchasing a movie ticket, it's your passport to experience the world of the game for as long as you want and as many times as you want. Like it or not second hand games screw over the developers who make these games that we all love so much. So if I can't afford a game I would rather wait until it gets cheaper and pay R150 that actually goes to the people who made the game rather than paying R400 which at best gets circulated between gamers and at worst goes to pawn shops and second hand retailers.
