Charging $20 to unlock the multiplayer on a used game is kind of bad, but at least it isn't punishing new game buyers too.

Maybe it doesn't seem that bad for me because I'm not entirely in the camp of trading in games that I own. I paid for the games and I intend to keep them whether they're short or bad or whatever.

It's a personal preference, I know, but still.

I do think it is a bit more fair, but yes.

The gaming industry is trying so hard to combat used game sales that they are just pissing off consumers left and right.

I absolutely loathe the idea behind project 10 dollars.

I think the best solution, at least to me, is a system that rewards new players. Sort of like Gears of War 2 giving new owners, exclusive maps and weapons. This encourages people to buy the game new, doesn't penalize anyone really, and doesn't cost extra.
