Piracy
A couple of problems: 1. It's not like this is just Joe Blow down the block. They would LOVE to be "vigorously prosecuting", but other countries are not going to let that happen. I mean, you literally have Bush going over to China with one of his major talking points being that China needs to enforce copyright laws more effectively. That screams "lack of serious cooperation" to me. So as it stands "vigorously prosecuting" is a "pipe dream". 2. The popular will to see a war on piracy isn't there. It's almost like a war on speeding. Sure, people will say their for it in general, but they don't really care and will quickly backlash if it did happen (see: Sony's latest anti-piracy trick that has brought a lawsuit from Texas or all the stories about fining Grandmothers and such when the companies do sue). People don't see downloading a song or game as "morally bankrupt". Not in general (nor should they, imo, but the problem is that it is viewed as a innocent crime). The companies are not retarded, neither is their lawyers. Their not suing everyone for a reason. Not to meantion the cost. Thats why they attack the software companies, much more time and cost efficient I'm sure. 3. For those who blame "lagging sales" (which is silly to begin with) on piracy, No. If piracy didn't exist, most of those download games would NOT be turned into sales. None of this is supposed to justifies anything, but in terms of fighting piracy and piracys actual effects, I just don't see where some of you are coming from. There is NO easy answer.

Too many "if's" in these rules. You need something more solid: 1. Be famous. 2. Failing that, be rich and good looking. 3. Failing that, be one of the above and funny. 4. Failing that, be funny 5. Failing that, pity sex

Instead of instantly deleating all my fan threads, I think you should allow some to exist. You know, for the fans sake.

I thought I was being clear that the PC is popular preference of people around here, obviously not universally, sorry if I didn't get that across

You know, this senseless cat on human and car on cat violence could be prevented if cats were just properly stored- The end is the beginning is the end.
I agree But some of the PC hanger-ons seem to view it differently. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nah Seriously, how do you think anyone views it as "stealing". Adding that word is twisting is what is being said, unless I missed a nut posting that. Bill Gates isn't stealing PC games from my house or anybody else. What is intended is that people view the PC as a superior platform for pure gaming. That doesn't take into account the costs to the devs, etc. Just the quality of product, taking into account the personal tastes of most people around here (PC RPG fans, aka Fallout or PS:T). Or to sum it up: the common saying "dumbing down" for consoles.- The end is the beginning is the end.
Not saying that I am saying, while I enjoy console games, I really miss the depth and maturity (not just more blood) that PC games tend tp bring with them that most console games lack, especially in RPG terms. EDIT: Obviously they arn't stealing games from the PC market. Tho I did find my Gamecube hiding my copy of Starcraft.- I Feel Bad For This Guy
I found the cat biting him funny I found the cat being executed a sort of shockingly funny The pigeon one was solid as well The moral of the story? I'm bad- The end is the beginning is the end.
As far as the PC/Console debate goes, I think it's clear that the damage has been done if your a PC fan. Both from the amount of games coming to the PC in the future and the quality of those released. I mean, every big PC company is at least testing the console market, if not flat out starting to favor it. I view the future of the PC game market to be similar to that of, say, the Gamecube. Sure, there will be the occasional blockbuster, but it's always going to be the red headed step child, that while be talented, is ignored. Not without reason, of course.- If you can change one thing about this forum...

I don't really care as long as it's a decent game. I seriously doubt it will turn me into a ravening fundie if I play it :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know! I'd kill to to play Grand Theft Ark!- The end is the beginning is the end.
