    what do you mean for less than 50 is that to but the software or each time,
    would it work for new generation games?

    i imagine he meant that you can copy a game for under 50 euros which is in or around the market price for games.

    I don't think he did Cremo, that would be absurd.

    Nah, i meant less than €50 for modding the machine to play the copied games. Copying a game costs you about 20 mins of your life and the 50 cent it costs for the blank media. I assume anyway, i dont do it myself :p

    You forgot to add in "it's not for me, it's for a friend"...

    Copying games w/out buying is bad for developers. Shame on you all!

    Pc games are very easy. A iso, A copy of sd4hide, and key generator. And a program like alcohol 120% or deamon tools to mount the media.

    console games are a bit harder. As the console usually has to have a mod chip soldered to the board.

    Older consoles are harder. But you can get the roms from the net with ease.
