| Euphoria14 said: For those who care I paid $600 for a PS3, $350 for a 360, $250 for a Wii and all of the titles I own were purchased as new because I don't like used for some reason. So there is thousands and thousands pumped into the industry for you. How much has Superchunk pumped back in? More than this pirate right here?  |
oooh call me out oooohhh....
This gen only. (Keep in mind I've been gaming since Atari 2600 on consoles and PC).
I've purchased Wii, 360 (for brothers at launch), I always buy games for bdays/xmas, so probably around 20 or so 360 games for others and about 10 Wii games as presents.
I own 20 vc/ww games and have purchased another 20 or so Wii games new. Then another 10 or so used. I spend a lot on games. Its my only hobby as I work full-time, currently obtaining my MBA, and think that it is vital to spend a lot of quality time with children.
So, yeah I pump in my fair share.
As for your arguement about "well i wouldn't buy it anyway" bullshit. As I mentioned earlier that is irrelavent. You obviously could rent it or buy it used or use your gamefly account to try the game to see if you would like it.
Lastly, IF YOU TAKE SOMETHING YOU DID NOT PAY FOR THAT IS STEALING and it rises the costs, especially in PC gaming, for everyone else.
