A lot of people don't buy PS3s because simply, it's impossible to play pirated games on them. Some people only buy a few pirated games... they only buy originals when they want to play that game online.

I don't think many people buy ' pirated games' the whole idea about pirating is not having to buy.......

I beg to disagree. Take into account most developing countries, which consist basically of PC gaming. Original games should sell at least for twice the price you pay on a developed country (meaning US$100 and upwards). Pull that one together with lesser acess to high speed internet, lower wages, overpriced electronics and so on. One could pay less than $5 on a pirated game with cover and even disc art haha so that's quite a money saver.

Piracy including bought pirate games, share from friends and etc. should double or even triple that PC piracy numbers. PS2 should be on par with it.

 

EDIT - Oh, I missed Chiri... whatever is his name (sorry for that, dude) post up there. Still, there you have.
