Who pirates all of their games?

The economy is pretty bad and I have no job so Heck Yes!
I have no soul but guilt sometimes makes it way to me but it quickly goes away when I play my modded ps2 or xbox360.

My thoughts exactly, I bought Special Edition Resident Evil Pack, and my Chris Redfield Figure is looking nice on my work desk.

I do however regret buying the Assassin's Creed Special Edition, the game sucks ass and I kept yawning after playing 5 mins into the game.


I download some games for my PSP, but mostly buy new ones because I like to have a collection of my own.

I wouldn't buy something that i could download.... though mostly i only download gba games...

if the game/film is a "big" file i buy it but if it is "small" file i just pirat it 8)

I mostly hack but i do buy when it's on special offer or used, like 2 years ago i saw that:

the Playstation 2
2 controlers
2 memory cards (a ps1 and a ps2)
Final fantasy 7-9-10-tactic
Prince of persia 1-2-3
Star ocean 3
Lord of the ring the 2 towers
God of war
All games are originals, in good condition.
Total=180$ CAN

The dude was only 30 minutes of car away, i went right away to buy. Since i never played any of those games and didn't own a Ps2 but kept hearing how great it was, best deal in my life ;p

I pretty much always pirate my PC games. The only time i actually go out and buy them is when i can't find them online or when they would just take to damn long to download. One time i tried to download a game but when i found out that it would take 4-5 weeks to finish i said "F*** it! I'm buyin the game."

ha! live in the Philippines
piracy country for you

In b4 RIAA

For me, I like my console games on my console (bought), and I like my old NES, SNES, GB, Genesis, etc. . . on my computer (pirate). I mean, why pay for something that a) I have already payed for. b) isn't sold anymore. or c) isn't worth what it's being sold for.

I wont download if the game is over 4 gbs. Its not worth it. My download speed is way to slow for good games. Besides buying games with a good serial number allow you to play them online! 8)

I don't buy 360 games. Price tag is ridiculous. Everything else is generally lower then 20$, so if I know the game and it's good and I've got the money, then yes I'll buy it

i have only took 1 game and that is an H game it is fun but i am looking for more to try

Just the old games.

Yep, pirates can sit pretty in Philippines. I know it's bad to support them but, I'm going to sin for it. PIRATE ERE, AYE~R!

I do

Im a proud retro gamer what can i say

i only like a couple of Next gen games...Also hate alot of Mainstream games(Halo 3 call of duty etc)

I'm completely against piracy! it fucks up the economy in the gaming industry!

PS Games


WII Games


PC Games


And when I'm not on the computer

Simply put: yes, I pirate a lot of games.

Mainly because developers charge way too much for a game that may only last 5-10 hours. Even 15 hours, for 50-60 bucks? No thank you.

And Demos seem to have become endangered, I am not paying for a 'chance' of enjoyment.

If I like the company, or know that it's a game I'll like, then I'll be happy to pay for the full version.

1 - Creating a game costs money (production, developing, paying the workers, comercials)

2 - They sell their product to gain back the expenses plus profit.

3 - if pirated they loose income

4 - Loss of income means less money to reasearch future games and keeping the company running

5 - to gain more income the prices raise

6 - The prices raise, people want to buy less and pirate more

7 - Repeat from step 3


This is the actuall problem really. if pirating didn't excist then I'm positive that all games would cost half of what they are now.

Sometimes I do. Mostly imports, sometimes new PSP games as well just because I cannot afford them.
