Valve's online platform, Steam, is many things to many PC gamers. And according to outspoken Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter, it could soon become something else: a place to trade and exchange your PC games. |
One thing I liked about greenmangaming is you could trade your games in you don't play anymore for a not so shabby price.

And he claimed that if you exclude MMOs, the PC market is 6-7% only.

Great, another way to rip-off customers. Do you really think it would be worth the effort if such a system was in place? Trading in games has been a huge profit income for stores since years. I'm sure digital distributors will do it too in the near future, but I doubt it'll be even close to fair.

i proposed this ages ago, but sadly this isnt happening, no matter HOW good an idea it clearly is... because as weve all clearly covered, how valve USES steam as a distribution tool, is a fucking joke... something like this would not only make sense, but would suddenly make digital distribution much more viable...
but since we know that valve are fucking clueless morons when it comes to how to USE steam, its pretty safe to say we can write off any proposals that would actually make it GOOD....

If we lived in the world where Patcher's statements were always true you'd be correct.

no publishers would ever allow this unless they got the same profit as they would from a proper sale so its never going to happen
