Third world is not an excuse. Of course if you live in a third world country, there's a lot of stuff you can't buy, because they come from countries where people are paid much more for their work than in yours, because life is much more expensive in their country. There's still a solution, buy Indonesian games and consoles.

Haha, I'm Indonesian, and I have an Indonesian PS2, and over 100+ Indonesian PS2 games from Indonesia. My parents couldn't find a decent job in the states (until they earned their Medical Degree) and piracy was our only choice.

You did have other choices: 1) Buy fewer legal games. (What did the 100+ Indonesian games cost you?) 2) Not buying the games at all.

I'm not the one you're asking the question, but I can answer from my experience, Indonesia should be similar to Argentina in that matter
I've done a quick recount on my cash spent in all my PS2 games, I have 7 that costed me 13 pesos, and around 40 that costed me 1,40 pesos. That amounts, more or less, to 150 pesos. I've seen a Greatest Hits version of Shadow of the Colossus selling here for 200 pesos. That means that with all my spending, I wouldn't have bought a single GH game, let alone a recently released one. You do the math
