ROUNDTABLE'D: Second-hand games = second-class gamers

DRM and Online Passes are now cutting used-game buyers out of key game modes. Our panel of iconic game characters decides once and all how much you deserve that.

I think it was translated from "SQUAAAAW, SQUAW, SQUAAAAWWWW"

Games are the only thing people b*tch about the most when it comes to being pre-owned, more so than vehicles, movies or anything else for that matter.

If I'm remembering my Super Smash Brothers trophy descriptions correctly, he is actually "very intelligent."

Those trophies are canon, right?

Huh, didn't know Isaac Clarke was such a slut.

It's lonely out in space. And dead space is the loneliest kind of space.

piss of with your supposedly moral high ground.

the sooner you realise not everybody can buy every game they want 1st hand the better. how many of these twats have bought a second hand game before, im willing to bet its over 90% of them. im a gamer and i buy what i can and when i can. if its first or second hand shouldnt be these monkeys concern

The ultimate irony is that Team Fortress 2 is free to play, no online pass required either.

They make more money off of hats.

It's a hard issue. Mostly because of the business side of games and the costs it takes to stay competitive.

But at the end of the day, I don't believe it's the consumer's fault. Like any industry, the costs involved in creating the product basically filter down to the consumer... but if the price is too high, the consumer finds other ways.

There are so many areas that can be explored in design, development, and the business end especially. It's hard to imagine publishers can't find ways to cut costs that don't involve gouging the crap out of customers or fucking over their studios.

I just want 4k/1440p and 60fps support. And with little glitches too ofc.

Snookies1218d ago (Edited 18d ago )

This is about the PC version of RDR 1. The PC version of RDR 2 doesn't have a frame rate cap. Though I do agree, it is mind boggling that Rockstar still hasn't released a patch for consoles.

It'll be great if true

LucasRuinedChildhood18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

Hopefully 60fps on consoles for RDR2 is next then.

LucasRuinedChildhood18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

Honestly, a PS5 Pro isn't even needed for 60fps in this case. But if they wanted to use it show a game running maxed out at a high resolution at 60fps, I wouldn't complain. Just give us 60fps. lol

I think the Series X might have an issue running the One X version at a locked 60fps as that version was a full native 4K but they could just lower the resolution a bit.

I wish to play both stellar blade, and rdr2, on the pro, maxed out like an expensive pc,

would be good, especially for the price, even if thats £499/ £549

last I checked, a rtx 4070super was £580 for just the card!

DaReapa18d ago

There aren't many games I'd double dip for, but having originally gotten this for PS3, I would happily get this if true.
