This has recently been bugging me quite a bit.

The pc games industry has a major problem - piracy. Now I know this is common with the consoles to, but they need to be modded in some way, PCs dont - at all.

I gave a go at committing piracy "legally" (for least time spent "acquiring" a test sample, I went for "Tropico" - quite a low memory game) , legally meaning I have it, so I wouldnt be stealing this game - in a sense, if that makes sense...which it might not do lol

So I got my cd key off a certain place and bam - I have a free game.

I just think its pretty stupid that big companies like EA dont put in things to make it harder to get pirate games. Why dont they? The cd key does jack - getting a communal one only means you cant play it online - woopdee doo lol.

Also, if this kind of chat aint allowed, my bad, mod please dispose of it. I tried to be discrete as poss :D
