Best Buy to undercut Game Stop - Best Buy hopes to undercut Game Stop’s used game prices by selling brand new titles for the same prices as used titles at the competition. The panel debates the ethics of buying used games (which put no money in the pockets of developers), discusses some of Game Stop’s more controversial policies (like loaning employees games) and ultimately asks what the long-term implications of Best Buy's policy could be.
