Still no excuse for piracy. You couldn't take a family to eat a decent meal for that, or buy a carton of cigarettes, or play a round of golf at many country clubs, take a family to the movies or any of those very temporary and fleeting frivolities you wouldn't dream of stealing. Why do it for a game you could play and enjoy for years? What did you spend on the graphics card you bought to play the game, or did you steal that too? Your bleating fails the smell test.
String him up, boys. The only good pirate is a dead pirate.
