Poor Kai Sheng... he just expressing his opinion that he buys original games using his allowance money.. perhaps to show that even a student can afford originals. But then out of sudden one fella appear and bamm him because he didn't follow his father advise not to buy original and instead... go buy pirated stuff sweat.gif doh.gif .

Even if the money comes from his father.. he has the right to use the money anyway he wants... unless his father tells him "Don't you dare use the money I GAVE YOU to buy originals games". His father only thinks that buying originals is a waste of money.. he didn't fully restricted him from buying originals (correct me if I'm wrong though Kai Sheng). What kind of mindset is this matrix-fella?? It is a good thing for people like Kai Sheng to have the determination to buy originals instead of "stealing by buying pirated products"... and to go as far as saying that RM345 is not a big sum of money as if you actually despise a college student buying originals using his allowance money... shakehead.gif Who's talking big now??


@Kai Sheng.. heh.. you have the same problem like me when I was still a student too. I remember I collect all the money my parents gave me and try restricting my meal everyday just to save enough money to buy CS:CZ and C&C:Generals. And I remember my parents got angry with me because I buy a new RAM for my PC. But year after year they started to understand my interest in stuff like this. They didn't care anymore if I want to buy original games as long as I don't used too much money and make sure my result is top notch. I believe you father have such mindset because he thinks wasting RM100 for only a game is too much when you have the option of going pirated. Try explain to him about this.. I'm sure he will understand about it and won't care if you buy original anymore... as long as it is truly your money (either your allowance or maybe the pocket money that you save up when you get it from your parents)... don't go back and buy pirates just because this matrix-fella bombard you like this... blush.gif




I wonder... when some people state that they buy originals... suddenly one guy appear and criticize that guy saying he can afford it because he is rich. When a really not-to-rich student state that he buys originals too... another fella appear and criticize him saying he is still dependent on his parents... haiz... doh.gif

and you are a confused person because you didn't bother to understand that those 2 scenarios are not comparable.

regarding the parents issue, it's fact that while you're under your parents control then it's wiser to understand that they're the boss. then of course, educate them if possible. if they insist that you go for pirated then what can you do?

of course most importantly is that when you CAN, you go for originals. simple as that.

Okay.. noted. Sorry for that...

I just want to mention that there will always be a reason/accusations for people who buys original games.

Regardless that... I still encourage people to buy original.. try to educate parents about stuff such as IP and so on so they will understand it better.
