Lame NoCD Cracks !

[kosmiq]

Uhmm.. Just a little thing I've noticed here... Isn't this thread about "Lame NoCD cracks"?

Or it might just be me getting it all wrong.
Please do not take this the wrong way now, the discussion is indeed a very important one and has some good arguments going.
And sure the thread creator do mention "The only people who could possibly find a LameNoCD crack useful are people who don't own/have the original game CD, you know who you are! ".
But still, come on...

Anyway now when the discussion is up and running I can contribute with my little part to...
Sure warez ain't really good as they do hurts the creator of it and brings down the profit. But in some ways I can see usefullness in warez too.
If you are little unsure wether to buy that game or not. It is always on the web and you can try it out (I am no "go-warez thinking here, only realistic).
So when you've tried it a little you might think "this game kicks some serious *ss. So what do you do next? Well you buy it of course.
So in that way you can save your precious money (in case you don't have that much to spend on games) and not waste them on some crappy games.
Sure this will result in that the developer won't get as much cash, and may stop future development from them. But still, from a consumer perspective it is good as you can find out which games to support and not with your hard earned money.
Where the real problems is with those that downloads everything to simply play, brag, delete and never think of it again.
Those are the people that kills developers. Serious gamers owns the original and uses that. If they ever bought a crappy game it will be changed for something else anyway.

Live as I learn, no way!
