Steam Alternatives: Green Man Gaming
Green Man Gaming, a company located in the United Kingdom, is about to launch a digital download store for the PC with a difference, claiming its store will be able to offer "pre-owned" digital sales. "Previously the minute you had paid and downloaded your game it had no resale value", says Gian Luzio, Green Man’s COO. "This is extremely expensive for the gamer and does not encourage the consumer to try new genres or franchises. Our leading edge technology gives downloaded games a value that gamers can trade-in at any time".
You’re probably asking yourself? "how will this work", the COO says "We will pay significant royalties to the publisher each time the game is traded in perpetuity".
And the follow-up questions, like "how much will pre-owned games cost?" and "who’s going to determine the value of trade-ins?", sadly those are going to have to wait until Green Man launches sometime around March.

I always gave off games that i have already played to others, but since Steam came i cannot do that anymore.
This might be worth a look if they will offer good prices for EU customers, but if they plan to use unfair pricing they can stick it somewhere. Not paying for any game anymore if it costs more than 10-15% more than in $, since i can get it for free anyway.
@Faky: Maybe you don’t know it, Impulse already supports it
well, I may be perverted, but isn’t that act of blowjob on that logo?
