@Dude, lmfao.

@OT, I live in Canada and you can't buy pirated copies of games anywhere (or maybe there is and I'm really out of the loop).

If I'm in Bulgaria I buy pirated single-player games. If I'm in the US I buy them legally. Prices are ridiculous over there and I refuse to pay that kind of money, also it's a pain in the ass to actually find even one legal outlet for games. It just so happens that when I come back I carry the pirated agme with me for the journey.

I get a guy who comes into our resale shop all the time trying to sell us movie rips from theaters...one time he decided to just give us some, so I took them home and watched them...they were beyond crappy quality shaky cam...why the heck would I pay for something like that when anyone with internet access can download a much higher quality rip?

I guess with videogames there's hardly a question of quality though because it either works 100% or not. I don't pirate games though, and I've explained why countless times on this site.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
