(Anonymous) 2011-05-17 02:48 am (UTC)(link)Here's a funny thing, when I can't afford anything, and as of two weeks ago, I can't anymore, because gaming companies are going south...I don't get it. Imagine that!

Funny thing, brosis? If they pirate it because they can't afford it, they... wouldn't have bought it anyway. So you'd still be out of a job because the video game companies are going south because people can't afford to buy it.
But, again, that's logical.

(Anonymous) 2011-05-17 04:43 am (UTC)(link)Honestly, it's not wonder this one is out of a job. His mental capacities are obviously not particularly impressive.

(Anonymous) 2011-05-18 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)We've got a 75% torrent rate on one of our iPhone games.
That's right. iPhone. You're telling me that people can afford iPhones, but CAN'T afford the $.99-$6.99 for a game? That's interesting!

(Anonymous) 2011-05-17 04:41 am (UTC)(link)Even if I hadn't of pirated a few games (and of those, you have no idea of knowing whether or not they came from a company you worked for, which just makes this even more ridiculous), I still would not have been able to help you keep your job, as I cannot afford to buy the games you made. I would not have been able to contribute. So how is it my fault?
And by the way. The PC gaming market has been in decline for years, and it's not because of piracy. Every new wave of PC games that come out have higher requirements requiring better hardware to play them. A system that was able to perfectly play one game will not be guaranteed to play another that comes out six months later. And right now, in case you haven't noticed, many places are in a state of declining economy; people can no longer afford to just buy a new computer whenever a new game comes out. People can't afford to upgrade their systems every few months anymore, so they can't play the games, and therefore don't buy them. THAT is why the PC market is declining right now. Piracy has been around for as long as there have been games to play, even throughout the golden ages of PC games; it wasn't until the economy took a dive that the market took a hit.
Also, do not preach to me about not being able to afford anything for a scant two weeks. Go eight years living so far beyond your means that your next meal is never guaranteed, where the very next week you may be sleeping in your car, and then talk to me about going without. The only reason I even have a working computer -- which is several years old and put together from spare computer parts that were given to me -- is because it is a requirement for the little money my family is able to make. I do not, EVER, have a spare $60 to spare on something as luxurious as a video game. So tell you what. You go eight years without a single luxury to your name, and then tell me I'm so horrible for downloading a few games online.
Asshole.

(Anonymous) 2011-05-18 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)Also, not all PC games are $60. The games I sold weren't. They were less than a price of a meal at McDonalds. Sometimes, less than the price of a gallon of gas. They can be played on systems older than my dog (he's 7, by the way)
You are horrible for stealing. Sorry, but you are.
And I'll see your eight years of sleeping in your car, and raise you eating the same sandwich for four days, without refrigeration. I've been there too. Except I didn't have a working computer. I used the libraries.
