PSP Piracy in the Philippines



Buying pirated PSP games here in the Philippines is like buying a candy from a store

Piracy here in the Philippines is not legal, but hey, shopping malls out there tolerate these kind of businesses and the government is like sleeping their ass out over the matter. Take for example the picture above shows downloaded PSP games for sale over the counter.

They sell these stuff Php30 per game and Php150 per CDs that contain downloaded games. Heck they even have a list of the available games and you can also request a game not on the list. How cool is that?

These are the reason why Sony didn't officially launched the PSP here in the Philippines *sigh*

Somehow I have little doubt how to clean up piracy in the Phil. They had that for years and years even before consoles came out. No one had the brains to clean it up since most decision makers dont really care or lack the understanding.
