[QUOTE="lordreaven"] I know, its so horrible, itrs not like the PS3 where nothing can be pirated or hacked............oh wait.lordreaven
piracy is more prevalent on the PC. you know this. i know this.
even the almight Crytek knows this
Oh, you have the numbers to prove this right? Since console Piracy is untrackable (why DL a game when I go to a mall in Toronto and buy 10 360 games for $5 and mod a console for another $30?). your points are invalid as Piracy isn't that rampent. If it where GOG, Gamers Gate, and Steam would be on their death beds.EDIT: And nice link, just a reminder EA takes most of the money when they publish a game, so They made money, but not the devs. Crytek is full of it in that article.
i dont need numbers. We all know piracy is bigger on the PC and we all know its so much easier to pirate on the PC. When I was in high school all the kids were playing Halo CE in the computer lab with cracked illegal copies.
But if you do want numbers, it was not but two weeks ago when IGN posted this article
