The CEO of EA just said they're looking at putting ads in $70 AAA titles. But they tried this before, and it was a massive failure. As did Ubisoft as recently as last year. And guess what? It was a massive failure. But as AAA developers try to squeeze gamers for more and more, expect prices and microtransactions to increase.
Add this to the reasons I don't play AAA games. And the recent Sony move forcing everyone onto PSN, then banning something like 180 countries because their laws prevent that.

But otherwise, if buying isn't owning, pirating isn't stealing..

Because there's nothing people love more than handing over a cedit card number to a game company. Their security is known for being so air-tight.

Oh, wait...
If you say that I don't own something I paid money for, then your IP getting pirated is okay by me.
