No piracy don't kills gamming, look at tunngle or garena, they made a service basing on lan over ethernet and created their own virtual adapter + network, and for free, gamming is for people, it doesnt matter rich or poor, but if you put prices like sony does,and then suddenly, the "masterpiece service" that they spent a lot of cash on it, gets hacked(twice), its like WTF!?, you paid for that security and it isnt secure, 2nd i like to test thinks before i buy them, and a demo version dont tells me anything about gameplay, on videos it can be awesome and realy is just a piece of shit, many games have lower prices and are much better than some games with huge prices. Pirates dont say, dont buy this game, get it for free, if you check some .nfo files, it says "If you realy like this game, buy it". So don't blame pirates for a shitty gamming, believe me, if a game is a masterpiece, the company won't fall so fast, just look at the elder scrolls, fallout, mass effect or starcraft, those games are still alive, and why ? Cause they are masterpieces. I buy only collector editions, of games that realy deserve it.
