I only buy 2 ori game
CSS and COD4 bcos can play online.
other is PR

I say yes to piracy...
Not all people are rich
By piracy is their only way of getting the games they wanna play

depends.. if ori they can bring down to about RM 100 or less per dvd, i will buy ori... but unfortunately, the games tat i want to get is all rm 200-300 per dvd.. so no choice but to buy dvd buatan malaysia (pirated dvd)

example.. gta 4 in india is selling as low as usd10 per copy.. why cant we make it rm40 per copy here..

are you serious???

does rockstar get any profit by selling them there??
I thought the price is fixed..

Then, lets just buy GTA V from india then..

yes, india selling at 499 INR, about RM 36 +.
is very cheap, usually new game selling at india is 999 INR.

of coz, is indian version.

back the a question that i ask before, if all game selling at malaysia about RM 80+-, but in bahasa malaysia, will you buy it?

i don't mind but problem is malaysia don't want 2 make one lulz if manual in malay but content is english, i am ok with that

and maybe giggle a bit

i dont like when dev translate eng to malay. it is broken malay. tunggang langgang bahasa. sape la yg translate tu ek. penulisan konfem fail. SPM bm too.

about income, if they work then ok la. but if student (uni & school). how? money support also from mommy daddy. most parents wont buy ori games for their son/daughter.



typical malaysian (most BUT not all) mom & son conversation when her son asking to buy new ORI game.

final option is of course, pirate. sometimes even pirate mommy daddy say would never buy. membazir kata mereka.

bros，

the game maker purposely make the local version in none english, so that those local version cant sell in other country.

otherwise, i will buy GTA 4 from india online since only selling at RM36. it even cheaper than pirated...

thats the logic, anyone here bought GTA 4 from india ? no right? unless you cant read their language.

To add to that...Publishers wont localise games if there isn't any demand....Which based on past records of localised games...they wont be too encouraged to do that.

It's only the manual and box is in their language.Other than that,the game is in English.Just like our localised version.

i hope parents r like this...cant suppot ori...but yet dun buy pirate also...haha
anyway shud encourage children go out for sport more
i mean real sport...physical de...haha

OT abit...cos i read in a mag...technology (or gaming?...cant recall)
saying y now NBA where r all de white player...
1 reason is they play gaming basketball instead of real basketball

so fill our kids withenjoyment...fill their time so they wont hav time to game...
den reward them once a while with ori copy...
haha...benefit to all...but not de pirates...

Good points there.
Original games will force people to do others things besides playing games the whole day.
I remember when I was a kid and we had just acquired a PS2, we only had about 3-4 titles.
Because there were no copy/pirated games so you would get bored of playing the same games.
But now people have over 20 games.

i dont know anyone said this before me in the 20 pages T_T im abit slow, missed out so many pages =P

there is a demo launched before any game EVERY game got demo~

if you subscribe to ign or gamespy they will give you newsletter ASKING you to download it and give it a try~ thats how i avoided buying tiberium wars the feel of the game just wasnt right in the demo~

with the demo, it will determine whether the game will be worth every penny of it or not~

but i has one thing to say bout ori games, abit guai lan need put cd inside to play lulz >_<

or some people buy pirated/download the game to test it before buying original~ those who terus buy i respect >_< olang kaya sial

yup...agree...u can alwis dl demo...
but agree la bout de ori guai lan pt...haha...need cd/online login...
for those buying terus is more like thay ady anticipate de game, and wanna get it cos they already wan it
not kaya sial

well stop playing pirated games, if u think u can't afford to buy it then don buy it !! Try some other thing . How pathetic that some ppl r still supporting pirated thing .....
it is unfair to the inventor/ creator. piracy kills creative !!!!
stop supporting pirated things

what other things can do? read book? books also expensive lar bang T_T

piracy so cheap thats why we do it =D unless the thing really good then we go for original to expect a sequel =D

you forgot the word life didnt you?

sports, socialising, getting a female, spending time with family, getting healthy, playing chess, watching tv, i can go on and on and on.

Valve really make me very tempted to buy original games just because of the multiplayer option...
Because of Valve i bought CS:S, L4D and Orange Box.
