Well, there are things called a "Hacked ps3 and Hacked 360" and I own a hacked ps3 which I hacked myself and GTA V is avaliable for free on hacked ps3s/360s (and it was avaliable for free 2+ weeks prior to public release) but does that mean that GTA V got devalued? Probably not... Rockstar is an old company that has ported virtually every single GTA to PC and Piracy isn't a new thing. So yea, its certainly not cause of that

Hacked PS3s and 360s account for a WAAAAAAAY lower % of pirating than PC gaming. You can pirate virtually any game I want on PC with no effort. Console pirating is used by 5% of the console population at most, it is used by probably about half of PC gamers. Every PC gamer I know pirates from time to time

Firstly, no duh console piracy is lower than PC. Everyone knows that but the point that I was trying to make is that, just because something is avaliable for free doesn't mean it will get devalued like crazy and people won't buy it and Rockstar is certainly a company that has been porting GTA games to PC since forever. Another example is that you can pirate songs easier than games but does that mean that music artists won't put their songs on itunes cause its avaliable for free? Of course not... Secondly, can I see some proof that says that its probably "half of PC gamers" are pirates?
