Maybe I'm an optimist, but I'd like to believe that Sony has managed to change the gamer/customer culture. Before PS3, it was quite normal and easy for people to pirate PlayStation games, even though they had means to buy them. Then came PS3 and people who used to play exclusively pirated games had to either leave the platform or learn to adapt to actually buying games. In many cases, the change from pirating to buying was a positive one: where before people would sometimes have more games than time to play them, now they have to pick and choose and enjoy their games.
Sure, maybe PS3 is open to piracy now, but people who have adapted to buying games will probably find it too cumbersome to revert, especially if the rewards are questionable.
Or that's what I would like to believe... ;)
- Leynos 14y agoSurely the platform only actually matters if you intend on playing online. I've got a PS3 and 360, but never play online (although I don't use them for copied games). I used to worry about gamer score or whatever it's called, but these days I only actually use the ethernet functionality of either when I need to update the firmware to play a game that requires it.
