Im pretty much against it. People argue that they want to try the game before they go out and buy it. That's what rentals are for. If you don't want to spend $50, wait 6 months until its down to $20-$30. There is no reason for people to just take for free what people have worked 10 hours a day for 3+ years on. |
Can you spend 20 to 30 bucks for a game if you earn $50 a month working 10 hours a day 6 days a week?

Where the hell do you work that you make $50/month working 60 hour weeks? I help out on Saturdays, working for 8 hours, in a friend's snowboard shop, and make about $80 plus commissions for the DAY.

The Philippines. And we have ~70% jobless rate. And that's not the worst in the world. Try China.

Damn dude. You need to move to a 1st world country. That sucks.
I think that the issue then is, videogames fall under that luxury goods section - they are products aimed at those who live beyond survival, just like expensive cars, fur coats, etc, just not NEARLY as expensive. So being in a place that doesn't really give people the chance to enjoy luxury things, I can see how it makes it difficult to want to try to maintain such a lifestyle.

Yeah, and the Philippines would have been a state of the US if it weren't for those dumb heroes who fought off the Americans back in pre WW2 era. Then the US would then have to pay for the trillions of dollars of our debt to the IMF
