| Re: What game are you playing thread For me emulators and roms are simply the only way to keep my library manageable. I own 98% (if not all) of the titles which I have pirated; while this is still not strictly legal, I find I can sleep at night knowing I've given my money to the developers and publishers already. I also tend to use newsgroups rather than torrents in order to download any roms I may need, because I'm technically not a part of the swarm and not constantly uploading -- another point which helps me justify and live with downloading these games.
I'm in my 30's, and have been playing games all my life. I own almost every system, from the Oddyssey, to the Playdia, PC Engine Duo, to some of the strangest systems any one person should spend money on. I just don't have the room to keep them all connected to my Television, the games alone could occupy a dozen full-sized DVD cases. |
