Piracy level at Europe amounts to 90%

20th March 2008

One of the specialists of the recently closed studio Iron Lore has recently told on his misadventures and suddenly remembered about the problem of piracy on PC.
According to the specialist, referring to the data of an unknown study, the level of piracy in the United States amounts to 70-85%, and in Europe - 90% +. The information was so shocking that even the developer did not believe at first. Within the same theme, the former employee of the studio noticed that such seemingly purely PC games as Bioshock or Call of Duty 4 are sold under consoles much better.
He concludes that it is because of piracy, that many studios get closed, the company declare bankrupt, etc. Sad, but true - ? www.quartertothree.com
