hypothetically, if there were a site where you could download hypothetically complete copies of hypothetical games, what would this hypothetical site happen to hypothetically be.... this is just a hypothetical question of course.. :) 

I would guess it would be some sort of, vague bay of some sort... perhaps with some guys with eye patches. 

Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special. -_-

yes, and talking about where such things can be done is not allowed. Hypothetical or not.

When in doubt, re-format.

it would be a file sharing site and if you happen to be in Sweden and you get charged with ilegal downloads there is one hell of a fine waiting for you lol

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Steam, it's technically a website, and they do allow you to run full games.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

You would be reported and shouted at by a couple members here, than a mod will come to your topic and lock your thread and maybe even give you a warning point.

Of course that kinda depends on what you are asking and/or providing. Linking to illegal downloads holds a heftier punishment than just saying "yo fams, where can I get some free vidya games??"

I am not a professional. I am not an expert. I am just a smartass. Don't try and blame me if you break something when acting upon my advice.

No one gets charged with illegal downloads anywhere (well, maybe in North Korea or somewhere else, I can't really say "anywhere").

 

In some places you can get charged with illegal upload, though. That can get some downloaders in trouble when using P2P clients, as with those downloaders are simultaneously uploaders, and can be charged for that last part.

I'm out. It's one's choice to pirate, and they may suffer consequences. Forums wish to be free from being accessories to crime. 

so... you're suggesting that I pirate video games??? that is illegal and I would never do it if I ever get in trouble for downloading games (I wouldn't do that) I will say that you told me to because you did... thanks for the help

you can get charges against you for torrenting movies and such in Sweden, not small ones either IIRC like $200 or something. they are not activly monitoring all trafic but if someone reports it and shit you can still get a fine for having torrented a movie or something. the Swedish goverment shut down a common free movie streaming site and are now running it to catch people who sign up for free accounts to watch movies. i just kinda want to move to Romania where there is basically no rules around this stuff lol

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...
