Peter Moore Warns Against Suing File Sharers >
2008/08/21 11:51:32: Posted by DM
Peter Moore, the former Xbox man, spoke to Eurogamer at Leipzig, and said he does not support the move to sue consumers for file sharing. While he does agree that stealing intellectual property is wrong, he cites the music industry's horrendous handling of the MP3 file sharing situation, and points out how that backfired badly. We agree, there has to be a better way. In fact there is at least one way -- make quality games that inspire consumers to regard developers for their work by purchasing retail games

"I'm not a huge fan of trying to punish your consumer," he said. "Albeit these people have clearly stolen intellectual property, I think there are better ways of resolving this within our power as developers and publishers.

If a game (or cd) is worth the price, I'll buy it...even if I can get it for free via rip. I am all about supporting quality. I agree with Peter Moore & DM.

Wow Peter Moor is actually right about that !

I get lot of burn games and so on, but that's cause they are not worth it, But I never got a illegal copied game, that worth the money...

So start making good games :p

90% of VideoGames released to us consumers SUCK! (On all consoles) Most games I don't even bother pirating because they are terrible, now that is sad if I won't even download your game for free. Make good games, I got no problem shelling out 50 bucks for a good game.
