Jeezes Christ, you aren't even allowed to reinstall as you like these days. Rolling Eyes I really believe any human being who ain't braindead will properly wait for a nice cracked version, while the 'stupid' buyers are constantly being nagged and betrayed.

your an idiot - if all the 'stupid' people stopped buying games no one would ever make them anymore because they couldn't make a living out of it. So before you yap that trap think about it a little more.

It's thanks to 'complete-waste-of-DNA teenagers' that we have such strict anti-piracy measures.
At least 2K have 'obliged' us, the honest buyers Cool
Any company that does this:

And finally, I want to personally congratulate Racer_S from the Widescreen Gaming Forums, and his awesome user patch to expand the widescreen FOV in BioShock. I'm currently tracking him down via email, but hopefully, he'll accept my gratitude, and maybe an Nvidia 8800 to boot.


ROCKS!! headbang

I'm not an idiot. The Starforce-debacle showed what I mean. If you force people to make their system unstable, you won't get a best-selling title. People have become aware, and gladly bypassed the Starforced crap and left it on the shelves. Those people are NO idiots.

Piracy notice:

What do we see each new year, big publishers cry how they loose 1-5 billion dollars to piracy(EA, THQ, Ubisoft, NCSoft, Vivendi, EVERYONE).

Okay so every year, those big publishers loose more andm ore money to piracy. And the same time they declare bigger revenues at the end of the fiscal year.

I personally haven't yet seen a publisher/game develoepr to go bust IF he has good NEW games, when i say good NEW games i mean games that are good for the mainstream consumers(there are a ton of Homeworld fans, game is great, but the mainstream consumer thinks its crap) and in NEW i mean recently released.

So:

bigger loses = bigger revenues

How does it happen?
