i really think it doesn't because a lot of people downloading weren't going to buy the game or live in a foreign country where it is literally impossible to buy the game.

It doesn't hurt big companies.
And it happens everywhere.

LOL mage are you serious

also, i agree many get greedy with torrenting games but companies act like it is really a huge issue when it really isn't
steam sales have been going up for years now and has been killing piracy

They added it in the first place because people pirate EA's games so much. People like you killed it. Then everybody cried because EA was forced to play their hand like this. Yes it does hurt big companies. EA wouldn't have been forced to pull that if it didn't affect them. It takes profits they deserved. |

eh i dunno
some research found out that people who pirated a season of "Game of Thrones" were more likely to go out & buy that season's DVDs in a store rather than the people who payed for it with their TV provider. |

>people like you killed it
i've actually only torrented one game before and that was because i lost my disc for it
but anyways
>ea was forced to play their hand like this
but putting the drm on simcity only hurt their bottom line
maybe if they didn't want people to torrent their games, they could try changing their buisness model and try changing themselves as a more open minded company

You don't torrent games, period. Regardless if a company has a bad business model or isn't open minded. |

piracy only slightly hurts overall sales
used games are what's killing the industry |

that's up to the individual to decide
besides, do you really think you can stop piracy?
pirates will always be one step ahead of everyone

Just because I don't agree with piracy doesn't mean I intend to stop it. |

Depends on the game.
If it's an old one then no, not really. |

EA has said the always online thing was made to stop piracy. That is the thing that killed simcity for most people. |
