Rampant piracy threatens PC games

[Linedawg]

I wish I had time to game.... the new job keeps me going till the evening then sometimes I'm finishing up at home. thats why I've been AWOL on the board. Don't have time to even surf the internet like at the helpdesk.

I feel your pain. Between work, school and the new baby I have limited time to play any game. But the up side is I’m in game development so I can play them as a part of “HOMEWORK”

But my job is my biggest road block in this. Originally I supposed to work as desktop support lead. But now I have that with supply demands, and personal on site tech to several VIP’s and get phone calls all hours of the night. I cant wait to get into the programming field. But entry level job in programming are hard to come by.

Really? I would have thought there would be tons of graduate positions - since in this current skills shortage, grads are the cheapest, cos mid-range bums like me are asking for too much money

Keep at it though, talk with Doohg, he just started doing freelance-contract software development... #1 tip is to always keep practicing

back on topic, not sure how bad the piracy is, tons of fake torrents, or they're nuked 0-day, or worse, riddled with trojans! It's not that the games industry is winning the 'war', more like criminals are contaminating the scene
