LEGITIMATE COMPANIES DO NOT REQUEST FREE SAMPLES

Never been easy to find and now that the PAL version has been cracked demand has risen once again

The certainty that PS3 consoles will be spectacularly outnumbered by demand in the UK suggests that it is in fact the XBOX 360 Console that may be the smart choice for the enlightened trader in the period leading up to Xmas 2006.

Demand is quite high at the moment with about 30 pirate games already available and more being patched every day although it is likely that the current ability to use Xbox Live with copied games will come to an end but even so it is pretty tempting when you can pick up an XBOX 360 and 30 games for about £500*

We don't condone piracy and we are completely in awe of companies like Microsoft and Sony but it's the nature of the scene that people are going to find a way around copy protection one way or another and it might be considered as a fair exchange for the many times that we support their product releases only to find them flawed or soon out of date.

This item cannot be sourced in small quantities. In fact it can't be sourced in any quantities. I think we have had about a thousand timewasters and just 2 factory orders so we will leave this product for now although we might start shifting a few nearer to Xmas 2006 if droog is proved right.
