No one ever answered my question. If a computer (which is good enough to play Cricket 2004) costs around $2000 and a PS2 costs around $250 then why won't they have the money to spend on a cricket game?

I think it's worth it... But the whole point of this thread is the guy was saying that they're not wealthy enough and blah blah blah to buy this game. But if they can afford a PS2 or a PC then they should be able to afford a game.
i didn't....i simply run it on my laptop which has a...lemme check.....Trident Cyberblade XP chip... so it works on that with only 16.0 mb ram...anyone else having the problems about slow gameplay?? i could only fix it by reducing the color depth to 16 bits from 32....some graphic loss tho... i doubt i'll go purchase a new card it runs fine on my laptop!

Having read through this thread i must say...
PIRACY IS WRONG.... full stop!
1) it stops people developing games
2) if you REALLY want the game you`ll pay the money for it
3)"the game isn`t worth x amount of money" arguments don`t wash...if it isn`t worth it then DON`T BUY IT!
4) People from pakistan...you can order it on the `net
5) EA market their games where they can sell enough units to make a profit...not all games are released worldwide...GET OVER IT!...(take final fantasy xi...not out in europe but i ordered it off the `net!)
i`m SICK TO DEATH of people condoning piracy...that`s why i have to waste time typing in codes etc just because some people can`t be bothered to buy a game... if i was an EA developer reading this i woudn`t bother releasing another cricket game in the sub continent with some of the views expressed here (appologies to all the peeps who have a legitimate copy in India and Pakistan!)
ok i`ll come round and nick your computer/house/dog rahul sharma 1980 cos buying a new one "isn`t worth it"would that be right or fair??

Well everybody gave their opinion on piracy and now its my time 
: :
Some guy in this thread said that the game is 70$. You see, in Pakistan, 70$ is about 4000 Rs. which is almost one months pay for an average guy. If an average guy wants to buy it, should he spent all of his pay roll to by a single game. Thus, he goes for the pirated version which is about 30 Rs. Now, whar EA can do to stop piracy is that drop down the price. Like if its 70$ in Aus, then it should be arround 70 Rs. in Pak. This way , people will consider it worth buying and it will help end the piracy. Coz I dont see anyother way of ending piracy in third world countries.
PS. I havent bought the game (PC version) as it wont work on my PC.

it is wrong to supprt piracy but also u have to understand ntot everybody has a great economy like australia or the us ...plus EA dont even sell it in pak...store owners jsut buy them off the net and sell them....and so the piracy is created from one store owner to another....look u cant stop it in pak plus it doesnt really even make a effect ot EA as that one guy bought that orginal copy...the money still goes to EA but EA dont even put the game in pak so that is welcoming piracy as EA just didnt bother to sell it there

Downloadin Music brought the Music sales down by 2% (approx) worldwide n experts say tht if downloadin music never ever existed, the music sales wud have beem down by 4% (approx) .. This is the study over the last 3 years keep in mind... but of course this is just a study I saw on a Techtv show called 'The Screen Savers'
but downloadin Games n Software I am not sure
