Classic twilight zone episode!

Time to plug in my PS1 and wipe my old Crash Bandicoot 2 CD with ethanol

and that’s why they say piracy is a service issue

if the game you purchase can’t be played without an internet connection, either always online or a once-in-a-while check in, but the game you pirate can always be played regardless of the status of your internet connection . . . one of those is clearly the better service

for example, if my internet connection is up, I’ll play an MMO. when it goes out, I’d like to play Skyrim, but oops, I haven’t loaded the game in the last 30 days and now it wants to check in with the Steam server . . . but it can’t because the internet is out. so i never get to play the game i bought - what good did it do me to purchase a legit version of Skyrim?

jokes on u i dont play triple A games

Unironically this would be so cool. Time to learn how to crack games, a way more fun pastime than just playing them

My man forgot the mod chip.

(Except it’s a PC, not a console, so my joke makes less sense…)

Windows XP

so it survived the tests of annihilation

Wait, so he only had internet only games installed in his computer?!
