AnthonyW86 - If those people couldn't afford to buy the game then it didn't impact sales. You're assuming those people could have actually bought the game which is a huge mistake. Even assuming they had the money, it's a mistake. One in four people in the Western industrialized world (which already only makes a tiny fraction of the whole pirating pie)

Yep and if they can afford a pc to play advanced 3D games they can afford to pay for the games. But you can't pirate hardware, which is why they can 'afford' the PC but not the games.

yea thats a moronic excuse.  if you have a computer that can play these games you can afford a game.  hell there is never and excuse to pirate a game.  they are just cheap crooks, who think digital media is fine to steal. 

 

some say that they woudlnt' buy the game in the first place anyway, or just like to demo it first before buying to see if good.  Ha.  Can I go to the movie theater and get into a movie for free if I tell them that I didn't really want to see this movie, I just have free time and you have open seats.  I'm not hurting anybody now am I.  Or tell them I want to see the movie first before I decide if I want to buy the movie when it comes out. 

 

There is no excuse to pirate, not even if the game isn't brought to your country, or whatever reason you feel you have the right to pirate a game.  You can always find a way to buy a legit copy through the internet.  And if you are able to pirate that means you have an internet connection.
