After hearing a bunch of news on the new xbox, what do you think about the new rumor saying that the new xbox games will come with a code on or somewhere in the game case which locks the game to your hardware? Do you think that the new rumor if true will cripple [b]Gamestop[/b], even if only the xbox will be doing it?
Here is a link to an article about the Next gen rumor

This is a whole s*** storm of market crashing. Bluntly putting it: If second hand games are eliminated I'm sure second hand game retailers will be crippled naturally, we won't be able to trade-in our games anymore which slows how many games we can buy, which will decrease the amount of gain the devs get anyway. I think it is a vicious cycle that will repeat itself many times and will work in a model similar to that of a recession.
