Re: Halo Offline

In Response To: Re: Halo Offline (davidfuchs)

: "You should be thankful to me for stealing your game and giving you
: exposure" has to be one of the most entitled justifications for
: piracy I hear.

That's not what I meant at all.

I was referring to Spider's specific example, that I personally would feel thankful for more exposure. Obviously, I don't think that MS should feel that way, but I think they are definitely over-reacting.

I am not interested in getting in a giant debate over piracy.

I just think it's ridiculous to refer to a free beta being downloaded outside the intended region as "stolen content." The modders were dishonest and douchey, yes. I just don't think you can say they stole something that's free, offline-only, beta.

That's equivalent me downloading and modding the Halo 3 Beta on my Xbox and telling other people how to download it...
