Do you download or buy the games you play?

[HungAryan]

Simple question.

I used to buy pirated games most of the time, especially because it's hard to find English versions of games here (they're all Russian). However, I have since then switched my policy to buying legal English copies from companies that I want to support, like Paradox Entertainment, Spiderweb, Unicorn Games, and generally makers of games that are at least somewhat intellectual. I have largely stopped playing the "AAA" titles which have been growing increasingly idiotic since the early 2000s, but I'd have no qualms about pirating them. (I do play SWTOR though, but mostly for social reasons.)

Well both, if I'm loyal to a good company and/ or artists, I buy from them as a form of respect and support.

For people from 1st world countrys like Canada spending 20 bucks for game is nothing. But ppl from 3rd world countrys should download them ilegally (if they have money for PC)

I play old MAME games :thumb001:

[Pallantides]

I usually buy the games, to support the developers. Besides I can afford it.

[Jamovitz]

I do both :D

[Rædwald]

Games are often so cheap here especially with services like Steam there's no reason not to buy them.

[Iloko]

I buy on the Steam platform

[Latinus]

Home video games: I usually buy physical copies.
Portable videogames and computer: usually dowload from the net.

[NathanielByrd]

I usually purchase video game CD's from online stores.

[Linebacker]

Nobody buys games or music or movies here,not even super rich people.

My IT guy who I go to when my computers act up is a good friend of mine, runs a company that makes him 5 figure sums monthly and his laptop is full of pirated games, movies and porn

95% downloaded, 5% I buy sometimes from GOG, you can find old classic games and also recent games at ridiculous prices, discounted up to 90% when they are on sale.
