Mafia II is now available in North America, announces 2K Games, saying the open-world crime sequel is due on August 26 in Australia and August 27 internationally. Word is: "This pistol-packed period piece transports players to Empire Bay, a fully realized and immersive urban cityscape set in America during the 1940s and 1950s. The action unfolds with white-knuckled car chases, explosive gunplay, compelling characters and an engaging narrative set against a backdrop of meticulously detailed period environments that showcase the difference a decade can make in the evolution of music, fashion, advertising and automobiles." Those interested in sampling the game should check out the recently released playable demo.

If I play a game and love it, I'll pay full price (sometimes even more). If I think it's just decent, I'll wait for the price to drop. If I hate it, I won't buy it at all. The simple fact of the matter is that most people would never pay for it, or wait for a $5 Steam sale, even if they liked the game and got many hours of entertainment out of it. Even the ones who, like you, pay money for the game they like would often find justifications to pay less than full price even if they loved the game. People are selfish shits, in other words, which is why nothing relies on the honor system you propose. You realize this, I am sure. I am also sure your comment will be something about how "well I am not those people," but the point is that the ability to do that is still hurting PC gaming because most people never pay a dime.
