since gamefly would essentially be shut down overnight once the new gen consoles come out, I can surmise that they have already left flaming bags of crap on Microsoft and sonys doors and have already worked out a deal with them on used gaming, else we would be hearing a shitstorm from gamefly and every other used game outlet
Shouldn't the devs get the money instead of Microsoft? if not, then what the hell?
It was a retarded proposition from the start, why the FUCK would they go through with it? This is going to topple them, and PS4 is already looking WAY stronger as a platform. This could be the nail in the coffin.
this was confirmed as false by the xbox support twitter.

[QUOTE=Joeyl10;40741436]this was confirmed as false by the xbox support twitter.[/QUOTE] No, the support twitter is wrong. It has been confirmed by several people now. The support twitter is pretty much the equivalent to someone working in a call centre, they don't actually get told all the details.
^What a shitstorm of misinformation. Microsoft fucked up hard by publicly talking about this issue at all. And if this is true then they have fucked themselves over by trying to fuck their consumers over.
