I consider myself one of the last real games players in this world, due to the fact that I do not cheat at games, do not argue about which console is better, and more importantly, I do not buy pirated games.
Fact: It doesn't just go to help breaking your machine, it also goes towards breaking the law.
All the people I know, except for a couple of good exceptions who are parents, buy pirated games. I know it's a cheaper way of getting software, but in the long run it's going to destroy the industry, I love more than anything. It has to stop, and any piraters reading this, has to stop. What's a few quid selling these games, when you could do and probably feel better by just buying the proper games.
My second fact is, if you people want to buy cheaper games, just wait until they come down in price. It'll help the games companies, and hopefully give you a clearer concience when the industry ends, all because of you.
I hope this sinks in to a few people, because seriously, I hate this kind of thing and so should you. Try to prevent these games getting out, instead of buying them.

I a) Do not cheat b) Do not argue about console wars and c) Have never, ever bought or played a pirated game, as far as I am aware.

Do you live in Liverpool? Only 10 people or so at my school have chipped PlayStations and suchlike.
