It's wrong. Buy a legitimate copy. You don't like it? Get a refund/sell it. I don't see how people don't see how dev's lose money when people get a pirated version.

reselling or refunding console games is the same thing as a PC user installing 1 game on  all his friends  computers and putting on a CD crack.

only the game stores receive money. not the the publishers or devs.

Only time pirating a game should be aloud is if the game company that sells the game quits selling it and you can no longer purchase it.
I'd go more along the lines of a company that doesn't exsist anymore, but if the developer is still around and has the digital copy avaible go with that.

Time to bring this out

Developers deserve money for their product. Publishers that screw us over do not deserve a dime.

Don't pirate games.

Demo or not, you still have that group of people who is going to steal the game and get it for free.
Oh, of course, there's always going to be someone who sees they can get the game for free and does it without giving a second though to the developers
