I pirated 95% of my PS1 games, 100% of my PS2 and now 100% of my 360 games. To me it is as simple as if I don´t buy pirated games I won´t buy real ones, so no company is losing real money because of me. Games here are so expensive it is impossible for 95% of the people in my country to buy.

What a classic excuse. I do agree with stof, that pirating games is not the biggest sin in the world, but I still do not appreciate the people that do. And if you wouldn't have bought the game in the first place, then plain and simple, you shouldn't have it.

I'm not condoning the act of piracy here, but you really have no place as an American to tell someone from Brazil whether they should pirate games or not. Brazil gets screwed royally up the ass in game prices and I personally give anyone from that country my blessing to pirate, because they don't have the same priviliges Americans have with game prices.

 

You know hes right...some of ya'll can accuse and call people theives, but be in some peoples positions...I lived in zambia with my PS2 about 4-5 years ago, and the only store that had a wide selection of games was 4 hours away, and I remember my dad got me a game that cost K700,000, in dollars that cost about $150-$200 at the time, you think thats fair?
