Jeez only 250? I know consitent pirates who have bought that many legally just between '08 and now. And they have been playing since early/mid 90s. They contirbuted to the industry far more than you have. How does that make you feel?

Makes me feel good about myself. I know that I bought all of mine. Just bought myself a PSVita. Should have stole it, and tested it out first for a bit though. That's the cool thing to do right?

So you feel good about yourself that you supported the industry less? Strange way to support a hobby you like. Also, can you make any shittier analogies? Call me when I can make a perfect copy of a Vita without depriving anyone of theirs.

you don't make more sense to be honest.

just because he didn't buy more than the people you know who are pirating doesn't mean that he wouldn't have bought less if he would pirate nor does this mean that the people you know woldn't have bought even more if they wouldn#t have the chance to pirate.

the only question ist, would they have bought the same, more or less games without pirating but your statement doesn't prove anything of that.

My point is that he has absolutely zero fucking evidence to back what he says up. At least there is a trend that people that pirate spend mroe money, which way the causation goes though is still anyone's guess. He doesn't even have evidence to back up his claim that piracy hurts an industry (which a few studies have shown it actually helps, jsut saying). In either case, his stance is laughable.
