    You make up future hypothetical situations where 32 people will schedule with 10 copies of Madden, meanwhile I run leagues where 32 people with 32 copies struggle to get shit done.

    Yes, I'm making stuff up and wouldn't have a clue about the logistics in a 32 human Madden league.

      Rumours swirling that game trading is coming

      As the furore over the game sharing policies of the new consoles continues, it's easy as a PC user to look on bewildered. You can't share games; they're not even real! They're an intangible entity pushed through magic underground tubes, like some non-corporeal spirit of entertainment haunting your hard-drive. But if some lines of code found in the latest Steam beta program are to be believed,

            Sounds like an incredible game.

              No, it's an article, and it's Forbes. You keep throwing the word assumption around, I don't think you know what it means, considering the entire article is based on statistical research.

                Probably top #3 in the whole cycle. Haven't beat through a game in 3 days in years.

                    32 man league....usually 2-3 games per week have a scheduling conflict where people can't play. Now you never have to worry about the 10 people that have the game because they can play whenever they feel like it. That leaves 16-18 teams or 8-9 games, on average, to be played in a 3-4 day span on a 2x per week advance. That means 1-2 games need to be played a night from a shared library. You're telling me 1-2 games games can't be played from 10 shared accounts? If you can't do that, it's pathetic.

                      Good luck in your draft. Good luck that nobody needs to reschedule or run late for their "timeslot" to play for free.

                      You forgot to answer how EA and dev costs aren't harmed by your plans here.


                      I'm arguing with two people, one saying "used games going away will make devs more money" the other saying "we're going to buy less of their games and free share, you're retarded if you don't see how"


                      Amazing.

                        So great there was no need to keep it after 3 days. Sounds like the kind of game that would of been perfect for the game sharing scenario. They basically wanted to do something similar to what everyone on PS3 was doing with game sharing, but with restrictions.

                          So I share it with other people and am out $60, but you get it for free so...yay?

                          Oh but you'll share a game with me, so we splits on them and I'm just out $30....yay?

                          Oh but devs will make more money....right?

                            EA came out and said they were making the draft functional on the website, especially for this feature. It could have been done with solid communication, like people told you days ago.

                              Why not split it for $30 and then go sell it just like you did (which I still hold as a lie). MS did not restrict that.

                                You ever used one of the many versions of an EA Madden website? Sounds like it.
