    Are you seeking validation or confirmation?  
    Don't let other people's opinions shape what YOU do, think for yourself.
    If you're looking for information to make your OWN opinion on the matter, here are some back and forth facts;
     
     - It's illegal  
     + Stealing a digital product doesn't actually take a physical object, so there's no loss on the company's end  
     - You're stealing from people that invested their talent and passion into their product (some companies... eh, no talent or passion, but still)  
     + There have been statistics that show that people that pirate games would have never bought it in the first place, so there's still no monetary loss for the developer/publisher  
     - You're clearly ashamed of yourself and are seeking validation/confirmation, thus, even you clearly understand what you're doing is wrong  
     + If you don't have the money to purchase it, you still get to enjoy it without giving the devs their deserved/owed money
     - Criminal charges may leave you with a felony record, accompanied by up to five years of jail time and fines up to $250,000
