Yeah,...if someone comes on here, claiming that they killed Lacy Peterson, how far would you take it??
Not very.
Piracy sucks, and it hurts sales.
I am totally for downloading imports though, that have been deJap-ped.
It was the only way I could enjoy Tales of Phantasia, Treasure Hunter G, and Bahamut Lagoon, back in the day.
Considering, I played through the translated ROMs, and loved them, I hopped on eBay, and bought the Japanese versions. LEGIT!
I think for some titles, and under certain circumstances, it should be allowed.
What about all of the homebrews out there. I've played a bunch, and while playing, I thought, "geez,..this is so similar it should be illegal".
Although they're not.
As far as Doom 3 goes,..... only a total DICK, would try and damage sales. People have waited an eternity for this game, and then decide they can't wait a few more days. So they support the hackers, and screw everyone else.
You know, without piracy, games could have been as much as $20-30 MSRP.
Don't give me the perfect world b/s. Look at how much a company spends, preventing, battling, and backtracking, just to ensure their rights are upheld.
It's like driving your car. It's a privilege, not your RIGHT. Is it alright for you to carjack someone?? Or, to drive your car recklessly?? Endangering the lives of anyone in your vicinity??
No one owes you anything.
You're the moron who preordered from a store, without getting a guarantee. You're online, so you should've tried an alternate route. It's not like you couldn't pick it up somewhere else.
What a lame ass excuse.
Anyways, I've contacted the neccessary people on this matter. Hope you can mask your IP. You've been tagged, and this site has been linked.
Enjoy.
