Hey, if I want to look at the shite from Dtoid, I can go on VGC now.

 

Don't forget that KZ3 has just leaked as well on torrent, or that you could get the Black Ops and MW2 360 version on torrents before the PC version. 

Also, it's quite funny to see console based sites talk shit on the PC crowd by making more publicity of the availability of games on torrent games, while minimizing the leaks on consoles. After that, we'll see a lot of die hards 12yo fanboys who will say PR industry shite like 'oh noes, the poor developarz' while spreading this kind of info. That's a great advertising for piracy you pretend to loathe, morons !

 

If you want to pay 100€ or more on games in the future, go for it, and support the industry whose only goal is to make money. And whine while you can, we will see in ten years when you'll have a proper job and kids and no time to play games.

 

EDIT : Oh btw, please tell the truth , it's in fact a leak coming FROM Crytek. So don't bash everybody as an argument to ur holy crusade against piracy


What a way to explain Away that you are cheap and most likely don't have any respect for anyone. I bet you borrow money and never pay it back either. It's called having some Pride and paying for what you like.  It doesn't matter who steals more or not. It is the point of not doing it.  You will push the games to 100 dollars a game, you will. Not the person who pays out of pocket for what he loves.

Look how many studio's we lost because of people like you. You think your doing gods work. You are a thief and criminal and that is it.

I can download house tracks for my shows for free but I don't because I would rather see the DJ get the money.
Don't justify your reasons with bullsh-t. Then  you go on to  talk about the industry only wanting to make money well most of are not. have you looked at the earnings for software companies. It's so hard for them to turn a profit that they don't go out of there way to try new things anymore. Put out games that are shorter and why is this.

You f-cking pirates are making it harder to turn a dollar. So people that pay  hard earned cash get screwed because you pirates are cheap.

You come out saying sh-t like this and you expect anyone to agree with you, you pirates are pathetic.

How many companies went bankrupt because of PC pirates and not low sales and high costs on consoles this gen? You should look into it and be surprised (quite a few developers of phone games also died recently, hardly PC pirates' fault). This generation marked a movement where developers and publishers are moving farther and farther away from the PC as a gaming platform and they lose more and more money in doing so. Steam is also being attacked by many of them or boycotted all together, shunning the best digital alternative (let's be honest; MS and Apple are bitches to work with in development and distribution) on the PC market digs the grave ever deeper, reminds me of the music industry being so loathe to embrace digital distribution back in the day (some still are, and they're not doing so hot). They also release half-assed and gimped PC games for the sake of console gamers, effectively making their products useless and they have the audacity to whine about low sales. Crashing servers, lack of patches and horrible interfaces and menu solutions, limited visual and sound tech and base gameplay garnished with hollywoodesque stories to melt the brain and wrap the mediocrity or outright shit they publish in suitable paper.

Mind you, I'm not defending pirating by any means, I buy 90% of my PC games on Steam and the rest in bargain bins at the store (are you opposed to bargain bins as well by the way? They net the publisher and/or developer little to no money). My point is; you need to wake up and start seeing nuances, a lot of people do. This is like blaming video games for violent behavior and murder; the story usually goes deeper.

To those who don't like Gamestop and other, similar stores; I agree. Gamestop's philosophy and business model are unfair and cowardly and they are just as bad as pirates, almost worse seeing as how its all legal (for some reason). Why aren't developers on their ass as much as torrenters? I don't buy anything from Gamestop at any rate.
