When I was a kid, my parents bought me these bootleg pirate consoles that always broke in a couple of weeks haha - - - This was when we'd visit my home country for the summer, I don't think you could find things like that in regular stores.

I use emulators if I wanna play old games that aren't available on Virtual Console, I don't feel guilty about that.

only games, expensive software like matlab or catia and movies and sometimes music but never i mean never porn, I got principles



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

I only pirate games that are hard to get, like retro games. I currently have a external hard drive filled with every N64, PS1, NES, SNES, Genises, and Sega Saturn game.



Right now nope, ALL PS3, PC, PSVITA games I want to play deserve my support.

But in the PS1 era, I was a late adopter, and I only bought the new games coming that I wanted to play, so for the huge backlog library the PS1 got by the time I got one, I did not have enough money to buy most :(, and also I was not sure if they were great games. But I made sure to buy the jewels (according to me) of the PS1 era, like MGS, FFVII, FFVIII, LoD, Chrono Cross, Vagrant Story, Bloody Roar 1, Bloody Roar2, Xenogears, Grandia, Breath of Fire 3, Breath of Fire 4, etc. I have 30-40 PS1 original games, but I have played like 500 or more lol XD.

Since the PS2 all original: 250 plus titles bought new XD and $12500 plus spent FUCK YEAH!
PSP: 40 games and $1600 spent.
PS3: 200 games so far (not counting PSN games), $12000 spent so far (not counting Collectors Editions)
PC: +- 130 games (since 1990 XD), $6500
PSVITA: 4 games (full games) so far, 165$ so far

TOTAL: $31765 Not much I guess, considering I have been a gamer since I was 6 years old lol XD



My gaming habits aren't that expensive, and my lowering playtime limits demand; I've spent around 1 euro daily this generation. Just like buying a daily app.

I'm a pirate and probably always will be one. I've never pirated anything big or expensive though like a modern video game as it seems to complicated. I pirate movies, tv shows, Photoshop, ebooks, etc primarily. I may download an occasional NES or psONE game, but nothing too serious though. I probably have about 10 gbs of pirated data on my PC. 90% movies & tv shows, 5% of some obscure retro games, and the rest ebooks and miscellaneous stuff.

I'm not proud of my actions, but at the same time...I regret nothing.

P.S. I'll fight Jesus in the street if it means I can continue to pirate porn.


LOL, why would you pirate porn? There are plenty of free sites that provide high quality porn.



I voted for I am Jack Sparrow even though I don't even pirate. I just like the poll option.

No I dont and never really have.

My main question to pirates is doesnt it take a lot of time to do? I mean maybe it doesnt idk exactly how it works but it seems like it would be difficult always looking up the stuff to download, figuring out whats real or fake, and then getting it to work

It's really easy.

You just download a torrent program like vuze, and then you look for torrents on the pirate bay.



I LOVE ICELAND!
