Back in the PS1 and PS2 days all of my games were pirate copies, but that was because original games didnt got to my country not to mention that i was a little kid who only got 5 buck a month... so even if i could get my hands on original games there was no way i could actually buy them, after that on the 7th gen era i finally was able to buy original games although they were really expensive on my country (80 bucks each) and then i finally got a way to buy games from Amazon (US) and import them (whcih is actually cheaper than buying them in my country) and i have bought tons of games since then.
And to compensate my times of "piracy" i bought almost every PS1 and PS2 game i truly enjoyed on the PS3 (Legend of Dragoon, MGS 1, 2, 3, Breath of Fire 4, Zone of the Ender 1 and 2, Syphon Filter, Dino Crisis 1 and 2) and i still want to buy some more but im waiting for a good sale on PSN.
