Quoting myself from another topic:
I for one am REALLY REALLY happy with the MW2 numbers. Serves those idiots at Activision right. I certainly hope it got pirated more than it sold on the PC.
Before anyone says "ZOMG PC PIRACY!!111eleven" notice that all top 5 of the games on the PC sucked the big one hard, except maybe the Sims, which probably sold more than Thriller.... |
I just don't get this philosophy, are all your brains hurting?
If you are against the product, you could be happy that it doesn't sell well.
Why are you happy that it has been pirated?
Do you want every politician you don't want to vote to be shot or do you just don't give him your vote?
|
See, not only do I not igive him my vote, but i vote for the other. Same with piracy. The way I see it, if you pirate it you vote for the alternative. If you don't buy nor pirate you just don't vote at all.
Thankfully, MW2 got pirated a whole lot and it will continue to do so.
@BladeofGod
MW2 was utter shit. It was basically a direct console port with nothing else for the PC, in other words shit, it deserved to be pirated hell of a lot more than it already has and sold many many millions less.

If you pirate you just break the law...
That's about all there is to it. You can try to disguise it as much as you can but that's what you are....
|
Yes, and in Nazi Germany it was illegal to not kill jews... I guess that makes killing jews just fine then.
You are picking even more at straws here with the whole "legal" issue. It isn't even illegal everywhere.
|
Ahh yes, when you run out of good arguments, it never fails to make a comparison to Nazi Germany. Now, if you actually had a clue what you're talking about, and that comparison actually had anything to do with this discussion at all, then it might be a valid point, but since it's not, quit trying to belittle the Halocaust to try to strengthen your argument.

Ok you want more examples of why saying "it's the law" is a bullshit agument?
It was legal to hang blacks in one point of time or another. It was legal to treat them as livestock. At one point it wass illegal to consume alcohol. At one point it was illegal to have an abortion now it's kind of legal and it might be illegal again. At one point drugs were not illegal. Just a few decades ago it wasn't illegal to drive drunk. In Wyoming it was legal to drive drunk up until 2005, I think.
Had enough or do you want to admit you know shit about what you are talking about?
|
How about pointing out current laws instead of ones that haven't been overturned? You really think there's legitimate comparisons to be made between laws pertaining to people and laws pertaining to property? Get over yourself. I'm not going to be told that I "don't know shit about what I'm talking about" by someone who thinks it was illegal for Nazi citizens not to kill Jews. Open up a history book sometime, you might learn something.
