Buy games? You make me laugh.

Pirate.

Why do you pirate games? :S If you can't afford to buy the games then why bother buy the ps3? :S

That's my opinion... The worse thing that could happen is that your console will be blocked totally. I don't think you would want that?


If i was to make pirated PS3 games now and play it on my PS3, when I download the latest firmware updates, I won't be able to play again my pirated games. Sony is constantly updating game security codes which will render pirated games useless esp if a game requires a patch to be downloaded before you will be able to play it. This is the main reason for incorporating internet on PS3... it's not for our benefit but for the benefit of game developers and Sony themselves. To constantly monitor our systems for piracy.

It's a waste of time, especially for the hackers, who make these' cd's considering for a burner 2 - $400 dollars, bandwidth... it's a total nonsense and a waste of time, considering firmware updates are regularly..

I'm guessing under £100 for the last year (now and 26/07/08). I rarely buy console games at the moment. I only get them as presents If anything decent appears for the Wii or PS3, then maybe, but at the moment the Sims 3 is keeping me busy, and that was only £44ish pounds (or lower, can't remember).

I get around 20 games a year but at some point I trade ALL of them in for new games which last for quite a while. Then I go and buy more.

If you can't afford to buy CDs, why bother getting a CD player.

Urgh you speak garbage. The PS3 hasn't been cracked, modded, flashed - whatever you want to call it. Nobody has found out how to.

Anyway, I get forty games a year and spend £100.

A CD player? I think I saw one of those on the antiques road show.

Figure of speech smartguy. I pirate games and I refuse point blank to pay for something I can get for free. The idea is laughable.

Also, if you think the industry is going to die soon is a good reason, then think again. Just look at everyone in this thread paying so they can make games I can get for free. Thanks guys.

I get maybe 4 or 5 games a year so..
