And what's this bit about not selling games that pirates would want to steal? Should our only video game options be those that pirates don't like or something? WTF kind plan is that?

I can see why you would think he is a hack when you don't get his most important point. Now pirates are just like normal people, they have the same tastes in games as normal people, so what are the only games pirates don't want to steal? Well the ones they can't of course. Now exactly which games can pirates not pirate? Well a good deal of the ones that use the internet.

I mentioned I bought the last few games I played even though I admit I'm a pirate, and why? Well I bought the orange box, tf2 is a great online game, also I have no clue how I'd pirate a steam game. I used to play WoW, even though I think it sucks now, can't really pirate that game, and I just bought starcraft again since I lost my copy a long time ago. Wait now why would I want to buy starcraft, I could of dled it for free. Well you need a cd key to install it, and they check that key when you try to get online, meaning its easy to pirate it if you just want to play it alone, but not so easy if you wana play it online.

He didn't really say much about the copy protection they did use in that article, but I read a few post by people complaining about it. To be able to update the game, you need to register it using a cd key, well normally cd keys are easily cracked, but they have a database of keys that multiple people have tried to use, so they can blacklist your key from being able to get the latest version. So you can play it for free, that is unless you want to get an updated version.
