do chinese like FF,they would do the best to pirate it

Are you recommending that people pirate a game that isn't even out?

no i am not recommendsing anything.looking at the last few weeks and how people have been talking about the PS3 memort hack(pbviosly its not complete yet).the reason why PS3 hasn't been hacked yet is because  very few people have tried it and the cost's are too high.

 

but if FF13 was to be insanely popular in china,then they would go all-out to hack the PS3

 

I don't think that'll work on slim....it's only for FAT ones (Sony changed the hardware design for slim....)

and it still a long way to go to play a pirated game on PS3 since Sony has a lot of protection in the hardware...

 

The reason why PS3 hasn't been hacked...it's not very few people doing this (according to my information...many hackers in US/EU are trying.)

The main reason is first....the game on PS3 is too big......especially for exclusives...second...there's hardware protection in PS3.

(especially in Cell...a hacker in Taiwan told me that...)

 

And I have to say....the version told about in Taipei Game Show is traditional Chinese version....

This language only used in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao...

 

People in China use simplified Chinese....most of them can't read traditional Chinese....because the words of each don't look the same,

and they think the words of traditional Chinese are too complex to learn....

 

So.....since most of people in China can't read traditional Chinese....

how come they will help hacking PS3 because of FFXIII traditional Chinese version....

And don't forget..there's no PS3 official release in China..

theres not much difference between simplified and traditional chinese, just fewer strokes. it was introduced to increase literacy in china since traditional characters are harder to write for illiterate chinese people. chinese dictionaries have both simplified and traditional so people can learn it by themselves easily. all chinese calligraphy is written in traditional chinese. all the popular chinese newpaper in usa are in tradtional chinese and mainland immigrants have no trouble reading them. ironically, chinese government publish their news in traditional chinese for hong kong readers since most of them doesnt know simplified chinese because its not taught in schools. singapore also uses the same simplified system as mainland china now.

as for the gaming industry in china, most gamers play pc games. recently nhk news reported that chinese gaming industry is only second behind usa in terms of revenue and will increase next year.
