Evilbore PSP Piracy Poll!

I wonder how many people on EB are partly responsible for the PSP sales situation.

I only buy my games, btw!

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.

If I had a PSP, I'd only buy...

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

You should get the Char's Custom PSP that came out a few weeks ago.  Of course, you'd have to buy Ghiren's Greed along with it. :lol

Get Battle Chronicle, avoid the other two...they're just incremental upgrades on the formula.

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.

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.

Buy only.  My PSP is not hacked so I can't play homebrew or emus.

This will show my PSP noobishness...

Can PSP playback divx/xvid now or do I still need to encode them in some shitty format?

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.

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.

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.
