Basic treatise: If you buy a publisher's game used then you're not a customer of theirs so they don't really care if the "one time use" code thing pisses you off:

And boy did the responses start coming in:

And now they've started posting some of them (with permission, I'm assuming):

We can all name reasons how video games are different from <insert random object here>. But thats not a reason they cannot be sold as used just like tons of other used items that are purchased in garage sales and pawn shops around the country every day. Oh, I know, it doesnt stop there. Next you'll have an excuse for how what gamestop does is much different and/or worse than what pawn shops and garage sales do. I dont want to hear it.
A used game at gamestop is an object, specifically, it is a dvd or blu ray disk. You can tell me about how its special and different from everything else on the planet until you are blue in the face, but you are wrong. You can go on and on about how its different than a used car, or a lamp, or a dildo, or whatever you can come up with.
