my friend pirated the game what should i do

Here's what you "Could" do, not what you "should" do:

Set a pack of fast zombies on him.
His game will stop working sooner or later anyway, thanks to VALVe.
Call Gabe.
E-mail Gabe.
Punch him in the gonads... Rather hard.
Run a bus over him.
Tie him to the Jet engine of a Mig.
Throw knives at him.
Trap him in a room full of Snarks.
Phone the police.
Chop him up and claim you've never heard of him when the police come round.
Go round to his house, wait 'till he leaves the room, and throw his computer out the window.
Enter his house with a baseball bat and break his computer.
Steal his Graphics card - Then blame it on Half-life 2 that it went missing.

Lots more...

Quoted for lameness :p
 
Kill him, then rape him. Not a big deal if he downloads the game, he'll just eventually have problems with it working.
 
What do you do? You do nothing. If you're a friend you won't narc him out.
 
omg that's the lamest thing ive heard... who cares if he narcs him out. my god when u know someone is doin something stupid or illegal u should bring it to the attention of the people who can do sumthing about it. hey im brutally honest ... :cheers:

well thats some big pile of elephant crap
 
well i dont think ill rat him out since he was a huge halo fan...but he has been converted
 
I'm afraid that you're going to have to kill him. There's really no other way.

It doesn't have to be painful, just a little cyanide slipped into his tea.
 
Valve WILL catch up with him anyways. Need do nothing. For those of you that think Warez is cool. Well you are the only lame ones. Depite the fact that a lot of it carries virus's of one type or another, Warez is completely illegal. There is no difference between Warez and walking into EB and stealing the disc off the shelf. Many of you would not do that.
 
Ok, now here's what you should REALLY do:

Stop being his friend because you make yourself look bad when you're friends with someone who is so god damned cheap.

We, the warez lovers, OWNZZZZZZ.
You go out and pay for your stuff, while we get it for free w000t

Your such a freeloader, has some respect for the people who spend years developing games. The law will catch up to people like you sooner or later, it is just a matter of time.


PS: Get a damn job.

The only thing you own is a small scrap of dignity tucked away into your dying husk of a self. And with a post like that, I think you just threw it out.

IRT Topic

Don't do anything. Ratting your friends out like that is cheap and uncool. If Valve get him, then okay.

I think that's the most annoying post ever.
 
If you gotta kill anyone who got a game illegally, by downloading, copying, borrowing, or looking over your shoulder while you're playing, you will become the greatest serial killer of all times, maybe you will even beat uncle Adolph!!!
 
I have tons of freinds that have downloaded it illegal. Do I care? No.
 
Call the FBI, tell them your friend is hiding the plans to assassinate the president in his computer and they'll blow his computer up with a BFG... then him...

All in a days work! :D
 
Well I hate to buck the trend of "Kill him, then rape him in the bunghole" but you know what I think you should do?

Buy the game for him. Maybe for a Birthday present, maybe just a Tuesday present. It would clear your conscience and help your friendship!
 
It's something most people have done at least once. It's not right, simply because no one deserves to get any piece of commercial software for free. The amount of developing time that goes into a game or piece of software is enormous. Even Half-Life 2, for example. Six years in development (though most of that was the Source engine) is a long time and that's a lot of people's wages and a lot of other costs too.

Perfect example is at last count, according to Gabe Newell, HL2 cost around $45 million. Why should someone get away with getting it for free?

And you all complain about something like Steam that helps stop this, but I'm certainly pro-Steam. They deserve every penny they get for Half-Life 2, and therefore they're within their rights to develop something like Steam. Sure, it's had a few problems but all in all it's doing quite well.

All I'd advise the first poster is for his friend to stop playing the illegal copy of Half-Life 2 and register a legitimate copy onto a new account. Chances are his current one will be banned eventually anyway. In fact, maybe you should accidentally on purpose slip his Steam account name to someone at Valve. Teach him a good lesson in the hard way :p
 
I definitely endorse the idea that you take his graphics card.
 
People like .Jesus are the reason why we all have to put up with something like Steam in the first place. If him and his 'haxxor' buddies didn't get off on thinking pirate softwareis in someway cool we'd have been able to install HL2 in under an hour!
 
Ok ok, I know what must be done people!
Send a bunch of hookers over to his house...
By the time the nights over..things will happen..
But something that he wouldn't expect during the night does happen..
There man hookers dressed like women!
Then they rape him!

Trust me, it works!
(If he has a good computer send it over to me!)

Well, there is. Downloading warez is loads easier than walking into a store and stealing it, and you have about 1000th the chance of getting caught. :p
 
people ratting on there friends :x

If I have an friend and he will be a rat on a friend of us both i will beat him up myself.
 
I hate encouraging people to be a rat, especially to rat out a friend, but you should call the Software Piracy Assocation. People need to learn that it is not ok to steal. Besides, you might get a reward ;)

Send him to Nova Prospekt. That'll teach him.
Damn! I missed that one!
I still say contact Gabe so he shuts your friends account/IP...
Snarks sound good too... Lots of snarks.
(Goes to play OP4 some more)

Also, look at your friend, open the real life console, and type "bind "point" "ent_setname [your friends name]; wait; ent_fire [ your friends name] ignite", and then point at him... That'll set him on fire, or at least that's how it works in HL2... :E
 
Just hit him with a crowbar, and scream, "YOU MAKE ALYX CRY! YOU MAKE ALYX CRY!" over and over. Poetic justice.
