Title: Evilbore PSP Piracy Poll!
Post by: Ichirou on March 06, 2008, 08:14:25 PM: I wonder how many people on EB are partly responsible for the PSP sales situation.

I only buy my games, btw!

Post by: Powerslave on March 06, 2008, 08:21:53 PM: a trap!

Post by: Ichirou on March 06, 2008, 08:26:14 PM: This is not a trap. I swear. I don't actually secretly work for Sony. :ninja

Post by: Himu on March 06, 2008, 08:26:47 PM: Only buy, never pirate.

Post by: Smooth Groove on March 06, 2008, 08:39:43 PM: Change the term pirate to download or use "free versions". No one wants to admit to being a pirate.

My PSP is still unhacked but I'm voting for the 1st option out of principle. I won't be playing a new PSP game until my PSP gets hacked.

I've been tempted to get one the last couple days now...

Crisis Core is calling to me :(

Shit, I want Gundam Battle Tactics, Gundam Battle Chronicle, Gundam Battle Royale, SD Gundam G Generation Portable and the port of Federation vs. ZAFT...

Yargh.

Post by: Ichirou on March 06, 2008, 08:50:09 PM: Get Battle Chronicle, avoid the other two...they're just incremental upgrades on the formula.

Title: Re: Evilbore PSP Piracy Poll!
Post by: APF on March 06, 2008, 09:30:59 PM: Download for emu purposes, buy for actual PSP games.
Title: Re: Evilbore PSP Piracy Poll!
Post by: bork on March 06, 2008, 09:39:45 PM: I download emulators and other apps for PSP and buy most games. The hacked PSP firmware is awesome because of what you can do with it to expand your PSP experience, particularly accelerating the system speed to make games play smoother than before. It is this and the emulators that made me hack the PSP, not piracy, but anyone who says this and thinks the vast majority doesn't pirate games is out of his fucking mind.

Post by: pilonv1 on March 06, 2008, 09:40:10 PM: I need a "do not use" option. When I did I bought my games and put them on a memstick.

i prefer the term "Evaluation copy"

I have about 120 PSP games, and that -would have- a susprising dulling effect on any guilt i feel from "demo'ing" stuff i'm not sure of.... if i ever did... which i don't... :S

Good idea. When my PSP is hacked, I plan to evaluate God of War until the end and then decide that it's not worth a purchase.

Post by: Rman on March 06, 2008, 09:53:33 PM: Buy only. My PSP is not hacked so I can't play homebrew or emus.

Can PSP playback divx/xvid now or do I still need to encode them in some shitty format?
Title: Re: Evilbore PSP Piracy Poll!
Post by: huckleberry on March 06, 2008, 11:34:07 PM: I need an option for "would download but bought a slim and cannot mod it". Otherwise I am in the pure buy only option - for now.

Post by: MoxManiac on March 07, 2008, 08:44:27 AM: I buy my PSP games, but I still play them off the memory stick.

I did download Warriors Orochi JP to see how the PSP version came out. I'll probably buy the english version.

I also run a CPS2 emulator that gets a lot of use.

Title: Re: Evilbore PSP Piracy Poll!
Post by: drohne on March 08, 2008, 07:45:49 AM: buy psp games, download some emulated games -- though i've actually ripped all the ps1 games i have on my psp, and i probably own the majority of the roms i've downloaded

Post by: HyperZoneWasAwesome on March 08, 2008, 02:34:29 PM: seriously, what for?

Also, I don't own a PSP, but my torrenting program is only used towards stuff I can't actually buy. So no games pirated, but yes to full seasons of Kamen Rider.
