So as those few readers that have looked, the stupid poll is not working again. I know these things are free, but darned it!!! Free Blog Poll will no longer acknowledge my query, and therefore I am unable to actually give statistics on how many folks would buy a console that is unable to play used games. I do know that a few folks indicated that is an acceptable situation, and I wonder why they make that statement. I mean honestly the lack of used games makes the rental market a little more difficult and you would be required to buy all your games new. I for one just see that as a bad precedent since I could not even gift games I have completed to friends. It is an interesting situation, but one that I think is still being felt out by both console manufacturers and publishers. I, for one, hope that used gaming stays as part of the market since I am so far behind on my gaming that it is impossible to acquire some titles new any longer (Psychonauts) in some locations.

Anyways, I will get a new poll up on Friday and hopefully it will become a much more routine thing (I hope!!)
