Something that is on the lips of many in these times is the piracy of new generation games (speaking especially of PC, Xbox 360 and Wii), and measures taken by some companies like Ubisoft with their pathetic DRM , the now so famous online service ban on the xbox 360 and wii updates them if they fuck you console chip.
First of all, I tell you if you consider yourself gamer, and buy pirated games, because that fucking bad gamer you are, you do lose the people that make your favorite games. Typical excuses
putting to chipping their consoles are: 1 .-
Mam is not very expensive
2 .- I want to try before you buy it
original 3 .- I have no varus / fair / pasta / Money
Come on, seriously: FUCK HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT IT COST TO MAKE A VIDEO GAME!. No mamen that is expensive, you know that games are so expensive, because companies must recover even some of the missing millionaire who gives piracy. God that had it not piracy are satisfied that the games would be much cheaper than they are in stores. Also if we look at production costs basically looks like this:
PIRATE GAME:
- Getting the game: It is practically free if you have internet home, and another game in mind, or an ISO stored on pc.
- DVD-DL (the Xbox 360 and Wii): 18 to 22 pesos Mexicans
- The burner comes with the pc
- COST IN PLACE: Between 40 and 60 pesos.
Considering that the only thing that is spent is the DVD to record the game, a hacker has gained almost twice what it produces, so it is a fraud, coupled with the problems that can come with this copy ( scratches, do not read the console, that you banned the console, etc), where which I do not think that the pirate fence will repay the money you invested.
ORIGINAL GAME - Cost of production (planning, development, soundtrack, payment to the engineers, artists, musicians, writers, etc.): From 30 million dollars up (considering GTA IV cost 100 melons the production of pure green).
- Cost of distribution: To bring to the stores, or make different versions for different consoles.
- Translation into other languages, the vast majority of new games are now translated into several languages, in which this work depends on the voice actors, and businesses have to let good varus.
- anti-piracy measures and price adjustments taken by companies to combat the problem of piracy.
COST OF AN ORIGINAL GAME: Between 500 and 1000 pesos (60 to 90 U.S.).
Come on, if they see all the hours and effort required to make a good game, is a mother insults people, that spend less, buy a stupid game on the street that does not innovate at all and lives the work of others, please think before you buy a pirated game, think of the hours and hard work they invested a lot of people to bring this game to your console or PC's.
When you purchase an original game:
- We give thanks to the developers for making the game, and motivates them to continue doing a great job, and may draw further consequences.
- Do not expose to failures of hardware / software on your console or PC
- have secured the multiplayer game.
- If the game has manufacturing fault, you can return, and that ALL SET IN THE MARKET HAS WARRANTY.
When you buy pirated games:
- I spit in the face of the large number of people working in the videogame
- You give the mother to your console, they ban you to the service online, and you can not play multiplayer line.
- Faced with failure, you have no refund, since they have no collateral, and the chip put to the console, it also loses warranty.
So you know, always think twice before opting for piracy, and as always emphasize, what you pay. Already
end, I give some tips before buying and after buying the game.
BEFORE BUYING A GAME:
- Takes into account your budget: Every time you play, this has its price a little high, and often beyond your means. Considered not to buy it instantly out of the game, with the advance of the time these are devalued and often left to a more manageable budget.
- Read reviews or see which deal with matters of gameplay, music, graphics, etc. Come on, there is a chingamadral of these on the Internet, and pass them on TV (examples would be the 3 fat bastard, Elite Gamer, Joystickeros, to mention some in English), can give you more general information of the game, and more interested in these, but for the love of god avoid that have spoilers in the plot, you fucking shit the game experience (in particular the review loquenderitos that according to them is to copy and paste information from the wikipedia).
- Compare prices at other stores, many times, the price varies from store to store, or payment pages, where they tend to be up to 500 dollars cheaper than in stores.
- Play the demo, that's what the demos to try games before buying, there is no excuse, Xbox Live, WiiConect24, and PlayStation Network, has a decent amount of demos for you to review and games.
ALTERNATIVE IF YOU DO NOT REACH THE VARO:
- Rental: Stores like Blockbuster, and the positions of the corner video games give you the chance to play the games to see if you like, or send them to hell.
- change: there is always someone who wants a game, and this has a game that you want, take the opportunity.
- Compralos used: There are a lot of people selling the games do not use, and often are of good quality, but as a precaution, ask them to try the game before buying.
PIRACY IS NOT OPTION, IT IS A CRIME, ALWAYS BUY ORIGINALS GAMES
