Then again, some of the smaller developer companies. I guess it raises a new topic. Do people here think it's a big deal to play bootlegged games? The more people playing bootlegged games, the more it effects everyone in the long run. *shrug*

I see your point, but then look at mine.
I have a belief about games: you pay for the work that has been put into a game. And by work I'm not only talking about the efforts and development put on the game, but the costs and all that stuff.
Well, once I bought a game, I paid for all that.
But then I buy a bootleg of a game I had previously bought. I'm just buying a copy of all that work that had been put in the original.
Thus, I'm stealing nothing, I'm just paying the price for a DVD, but not a whole game.
Now, if I buy bootlegs of original copies I had never bought, then maybe I could be compared to the thief, even though not as bad, sinc the mother fu**er did not pay a single penny for all the shit he got.
And there's several maintainance guys in the complex, plus the management sucks ass, that's why I'm moving in 2 weeks from that shithole. But there's nothing I can do about my games, I just lost them and I accept it.
Time to move on :B
