Hello Escapits!
First of all, if you don't know what Project 10 Dollar is, here's a video that'll explain (by the way, how's life under that rock?):

Anyway, this question was sparked when I had a choice to make a few days ago. I saw Dragon Age 2 new for $30 at a local Walmart. I was thinking of buying it now that it had finally gone down in price, but then I remebered I would be going to a used entertainment store (not Gamestop) in a few days, so I decided to wait and see if they had the game. The used entertainment store is an hour and a half drive away from where I live (the closest place to buy used games from where I live) and it was there for $20. I thought about it and decided that I'd buy it used for two reasons: the extra DLC wasn't worth me going back to Walmart (by "local", I meant it was 15 miles from where I lived), and because I wanted to spite EA.
So then, my question is, do you think Project 10 Dollar is really stopping a portion of people from buying games used, and do you think the people who buy the game used pay that extra $10 for the DLC they missed?
