Well then only the USA and EU would be playing games and everyone else would look at a nice piece of wall all day long ..
I didnt even try to justify it i just stated my reasons and thats it.
You say you are makeing 2200 a month where ever you live and thats probably good money over there but its just as much as 150e here.
Now imagine that a game was to cost 1500$ would you buy it ? Honestly ? I dont think so.
Thats all coz games are made in the US mostly and thats their primary market so they charge just as much here as they do there. If they were made here for our market they would cost 5$ or maybe even less.
You are looking at this issue from you point of view and dont see the big picture and dont even try to understand what others that pirate coz of the price are talking about but again imagine that a game costs 1500$ and place your self in a position of buying it .. man more than half of your pay is gone on a single game that youll play for 15 hours and than its worthless.
Its not like money here doesent have any buying power i can buy hardware pay the bills and everything i need & want and have enough left to have fun all month with the cash coz the prices are low but this problem with games has not been settled in any way .. i know this is a transitional coutry and things will get better but for now piracy is the way to go .. even the goverment and everyone uses pirated versions on windows why the hell shouldnt i ? Its even easier i install vista no serial needed no activation needed just install and play on.
Again i didnt try to justify it i just stated my reasons as did everyone else here. I know someone put in hours and hours of work every day to make the software but in the end its like do i give back my 8800GT 512MB and pay up another 50e for a 8800GTS 512MB or do i buy a game ? hm.. not a very hard decision if you ask me.

Still doesn't justify it. If you cant afford something then you go without. I earn £2200 a month, so i can't afford an Aston Martin DB9, doesn't mean i'm entitled to go out and steal one

Sure your not entitled to go out and steal one but you can if you choose to and the fact that there is noone to stop you and noone to chase you and track you down only makes it easier. Again im not talking about whos entitled to do what or what is rite and what is wrong i just came out and honestly said why i do the things i do .. And i dont think im entitled to pirate a game. Who is entitled to do what is not the subject of this thread nor my post nor did i ask/seek your approval for anything and i dont think game publishers/creators should in any way approve of pirating for any reason.
