I don't know what it will do to MS's Xbox live numbers, and I think it will suck for consumers - it will certainly result in more new purchases of the game and fewer purchases of the game used. That means some of us that routinely rotate through games (buy games, sell/trade and get other ones) will have to shell out some extra $$$. Those of us gamers that delight in buying new and keeping our library of our favorite 20 games will probably not be effected at all - this time. It's cool to make more money but there is a point where the big businesses behind the games can go too far - I'm not too sure yet how I feel about this, but I must admit I won't be playing online so it will probably not effect me, plus as luck would have it I've reserved a copy anyway.

It's going to be terrible for consumers, and it may hurt their xbox Live numbers. That doesn’t make a lick of sense. It’s going to be terrible for consumers, and it may hurt their xbox Live numbers.
