Heavy Rain developer estimates $13M loss on second-hand sales

The car analogy isn't a perfect example, but it isn't utter crap either. Lets be generous and say that it takes two years for an average driver to rack up 100,000km on their odometer... you won't find a two year old game on the shelf going for it's original release price; hell, you can get Arkham Asylum for all of $5 these days (released in 2009).
As for your breakdown of the economics of game prices - I figure you're probably jut making that up because used games barely factor in to the calculations. The reason (aside from general inflation) that game prices are going up is that development costs are going up... studios are sinking hundreds of millions of dollars in to producing AAA titles these days.
