This could potentially mean Valve’s platform — and others like it — will have to allow uses to sell their game codes. So, assuming that happens, what would it mean for gamers? > The UFC Que Choisir, a French consumer rights group, filed against Valve, alleging that the company was illegally prohibiting the sale of personally-owned property (in this case, the purchased codes). Since Valve has no serious competition (yet) in terms of digital storefronts, this creates an unfair scenario for the consumer. The TGI de Paris, the court before whom the case was tried, ruled Steam’s prohibition against reselling purchased items isn’t enforceable, even those not tied to a piece of physical media.
