!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

It's about companies that are against piracy for games they don't sell anymore and don't provide a way to play them. If they gave us a way to play them piracy wouldn't be only option.
But even new games can have similar problem because of the price. Main reason why I don't have any current gen console is because I need to pay hundreds of $ for it plus 80$ per game (they cost that much in my country). That's insane in my opinion. Two years ago I got second hand moded Wii with 200 games and paid it less than I would pay for just 1 AAA game. I can't afford (or justify) spending so much money on games when emulation exists.
