And yeah, that $70 copy of Super Mario 64 feels great to buy, but the novelty wears off. Instead of going to Gamestop with money in hand, eager to pre-order or buy the newest FPS at the time, GoldenEye. It becomes a tedious chore after a while, espicially when demo's weren't available. Or I didn't have acsess to them. So then I would go to the store, money in hand, with mere hope, hope that the game I bought wasn't a big peice of shit that should have never been put on store shelves. I'm looking at you, Superman 64, that was $50 I would have rather wiped my ass with.
Point being, i dont like wasting my money.
1) Of course not. The technology to steal games for free didn't exist then.

2) Who in the hell is paying $70 for SuperMario64? You and iPhantom seem to like to spike prices to make your arguments.

3) I am sorry going to the store to buy games is "tedious". I know you are really busy with work and school, so making a trip to the game store is a chore. Still, that doesn't excuse piracy.

4) But now we have demos, reviews, the Internet...(I am tired of repeating myself).

Dude, do what you want to do, but don't pretend that stealing games makes you anything less than a pirate and a thief.

End of line.
