Dude... what?

You might want to talk to your doctor about reducing the dosage.

Is this an attempt to create a virtual disc-scratching technology?

OOOPS

wrong thread. I need to go to bed.

Do you have a patent for that technology yet?

Do you mean Windows maybe...?

Yeahbuwha...?

what is this genius?

How about EU Oracle ruling?

It will eventually trickle down to gog and steam.

A principle is better than cheat-out I find.

If I understand what you're saying. If such a thing were made, I would hope the creator was beaten up daily like a red-headed step child as a reminder of why nobody will ever love them.

lolwhat?

I'm fairly sure even Steam doesn't allow users to resell their "used" games, despite the DRM.

It's a tricky topic, since there's no real reduction of value for a fully digital product, unlike traditional game releases. On the other hand, why shouldn't people be able to resell a digital game after they've finished it, when they paid the same price for it as, say, a console gamer, or someone who bought a DRM-free physical PC copy.

I suppose one option would be, to only allow the original owner to resell or gift the game once, and to lock down any further account movements of that game.

I think G2A sells used codes all the time. :P

Since this could be considered DRM, no. And geez, why would they? Aren't games on 80% sales cheap enough?

But it does remind that there have been some games where the developers put in some anti-piracy measures that either degraded performance after a while, and I think there was one where you got pursued by an invincible killing machine of a monster.

Interesting concept, though it would require DRM out the wazoo.

Victim or perputrator? ;)
