What happens when people pirate a game dev simulator and then go broke because of piracy?

I thought this was hilarious justice and sad at the same time. Comment on the hypocrisy and self-entitlement of far too many people who call themselves "gamers." TL;DR: >Greenheart Games releases a video game development simulator called "Game Dev Tycoon." >Secretly, they also upload a slightly different version to a torrent site. >Pirates download the "cracked" version (which is actually the secret, slightly different version). >In the "cracked" version, over time, piracy causes your company to go broke and you lose the game. >People who downloaded the "pirated" version complain about piracy in the game. Some even suggest that players in-game should be able to implement DRM. >Lol's and tears were had by all.

  • Funny .. guess that does fall within the bungie spirit of funny. It reminds me of a studio named bungie, [url=http://www.andymoore.ca/2011/08/the-third-cloning-of-steambirds/]who assisted in the theft[/url] of a mobile platform game. But good ole bungie played the gag one step further ... bungie [url=http://tarr.uspto.gov/servlet/tarr?regser=serial&entry=77950813]abandoned[/url] the whole project (but only after sucking every ounce of press out of the "[i]we love indie developers[/i]" story line). So burn the original game idea ... Then burn the developer you promised to help ... And what did it cost them ... nothing ... well done.
