 yea but there a people like me who barley make money ( 2 weeks pay cant even buy a full game Lawlzors) and want to buy games, and they cant. so tey pirate games. just like if you dont want to be seen listening to a cd player, you get and ipod and dl songs ilegally.


Then gaming isn't a luxury you should have.

You think a heroine junky is going to go to a dealer and say "But dealer, I can not afford to pay my bills! I hardly make money." You think the dealer will be like "its okay have as much as you want"


Just like i'm not going to spend 70 bucks for a brand-name t-shirt, but that doesn't mean i have privilege to steal one from department store.

Who wants to keep the analogies alive?

wow so you guys would buy games for 70 bucks, ( 5 games a year = 350$) when you could easily just download them for free or mod ur console and burn rented games? same goes for music.

seriosuly,no one will find out... ive been playing pirated games for over 10 years and ive never been caught. its eitehr you guys are like very good people, or just want to have that game cover with the sexy boxart. i dunno man.

And by the way, I don't pirate, but if I did, and if I liked GT, I'd sure as hell pirate GT5:P. What a waste of money; Sony's getting greedy. Anyone who wants to pirate that game, I encourage them to. the less people who buy a half-baked demo for $40, the better for the future of the industry, IMO.

That makes you loose all credibility. "half-baked demo" would mean its half of a demo(like it would stop before you even finish a lap around the track).... but its more than a full game.... WTF!

errr...'half-baked' doesn't mean half...half baked means that something is...well...halfway to being done. Duh.  And demo? I believe prologue is a demo, albeit an extensive one.  So, you ''loose'' all credibility for your shabby grasp of the English language.

Wow that sucks for the people who bring their systems over to their friends house to download games because they can't afford a good internet connection.

Or you're just a scum bag. When you grow up and you don't make enough money in your career for that new BMW are you going to jack it? Seriously, life is ALL about money controll. If you can't make ends meet SACRAFICE SOMETHING! AMERICANS HAVE BEEN DOING IT FOR YEARS! It doesn't give  you the right to steal!

You're the reason cops shoot people. They try blamming it on being poor so they go mug someone.

 Yeah, but the "me not having much money" thing is actually just subsiadiary (and also, i cant work, i go to school 12 hours a day for my f&* master's then i study) i have to live on a grant (and not a very generous one that is)

My point is, don't give money to those who don't deserve it, but hey, if you're ok with giving away nearly 100$ for bullshit be my guest.  I'm tired of pretty commercials and f&*% marketing evil geniuses making up for the poor job of devs, a blank dvd costs me nearly as much as a rental, only without the hassle, and yes i keep the copy, what? should i burn it? i'm not fucking using it, and that is what counts



Listen to the voice of reason, then do as I say.

Matter of principle, man. If you can't afford games, economize and suck up and game less...maybe make MONEY instead.  The point is, we live by a stricter moral code than you. We don't care whether or not we ''get caught'', it's illegal either way.  Would you kill a man just because you knew you wouldn't get caught? Man, I love analogies.

Thanks for proving me right. A half baked DEMO! you said DEMO! not Half baked game. How can a DEMO be half way in being done???

 Don't go overboard, asshole. Just because you don't pirate games doesn't mean you're a shining beacon of moral perfection. Just because you've become a mindless slave to a cyclical capitalistic system doesn't mean all of us have to live that way.

I can understand piacy in certain locations. It seems piracy is very big in countries like Brazil because...(GASP)...they get massively overcharged in those countries. I would probably pirate games too if the price tag rivaled a hospital stay.
