Spore - Are you buying?!

[aavidbacon]

twesterm, you know, don´t you? that the majority of the pirates wouldn´t buy the games if they were to buy the official ones? I live in Brazil, a third world country and I see thi s kind of things everyday. Most of the middle class youngsters have a ps2 and they are on their way to get a new gen consol, but you know how many official games they have ? Very few. The ps2 success in Brazil was due to the easyness to pirate it and the main reason why ps3 will never succeed in here. The games are launched at US$130 here and most of the owners would never buy many games if they didn´t have an option. The wii and x360 can be copied and will make success down here. The pc games are three times cheaper than in the stores. Sometimes they don´t reach the stores, so we are forced to get them pirate or from abroad(like I do). So that story that pirates hurt their sales is BS. The US, EU and Japan(the big markets) are able too enforce the law, and also have a financial status that don´t make games so proibitive. This DRM thing is an agression to the consumer and people should boycot them until they give in.
