A designer at Saints Row: The Third developer Volition has welcomed reports that Microsoft's Xbox 360 successor will include some kind of anti-used game system, saying such a measure would be "a fantastic change for our business." Writing on AltDevBlogADay, design director Jameson Durall says that online passes work, and welcomes Sony's announcement that digital versions of PS Vita games will cost less than at retail. He reserves special praise, however, for Microsoft's reported intent to block pre-owned games at hardware level.

Apple has removed a host of cloned games from the iOS App Store, all of which are apparently the work of a single developer. The games, developed by Anton Sinelnkov, had instantly familiar names, including Plant Vs Zombie, Angry Ninja Birds, and Temple Jump. In a tweet, iOS developer David Smith noted that last week Sinelnikov had 68 apps on the store; at the time of writing, that has fallen to nine.
