The man is David Braben, a guy with a few games under his belt. He claims that the used game industry is inflating the prices and limiting the sales of games off the shelf. The core of his argument is that retailers would rather buy back games used from gamers, than purchase new copies from the publisher. Also, that game publishers should get a cut from every used sale, the same way Ikea gets a cut when you unload your old couch. Oh? Ikea doesn’t? Hmm. Gamasutra has the story.
