free games download!Why is it illegal to download games from the Internet for free?

See, I love to download Nancy Drew Games for free. But, when I was searching for questions requiring Nancy Drew Games(of course!). I was intrigued by a question that asks: Where can I find a website where I can download free Nancy Drew Games? And the best answer was: Don't download games from the Internet for free. It is illegal. Now I was hoping that you can tell me why free game downloading from the Internet is illegal.
It depends, is it for a console because then it is copyrighted software and therefore illegal to share online.
Good luck - I myself have been trying to find these games. You can buy them (sadly, I know) from herinteractive.com)
I want to buy about 10 different ND games which cost my $200 alone,NOT including P&H


hi..If you are able to download it for free on the internet


well everyone does it and it is ilegal


A game is a piece of work someone has created, thats in the form of a software. Bfree games downloadecause software is something that can be easily transmitted and copied, people think its ok to download for free. If you download it for free then the gamemaker doesn't get any money for his work! Its just like illegally downloading music, except worse because these days most decent games cost upwards of $30mill to make.

If everyone pirated everything, then there would be no more game development since why would someone develop a game that would make them no money (or a loss).

It's like stealing a patent. However as long as your illegally downloading your game for home usage (no reselling) than the charges that will go against you if your caught won't be as bad.

Maybe that is a a free game paid for via advertising (freeware or trial software).
These companies paid good money to develop these games, and they want to make a profit. That's like asking why it's illegal for me to come into your house and take your TV for free, it's not mine and I didn't pay for it.

Same with games, if you didn't pay for it, and you download it, it's stealinfree games downloadg (unless the publisher is providing it for free, which is rare).
If you are able to download it for free on the internet, who would buy it in a shop? If everyone dowloaded it for free from the internet, the company making the game would make no profit and it would be pointless for them to create another.
it's bad and i swear i don't download millions worth of free software and music. what? i don't. i swear. }o)
People have spent ages creating games to then be sold in shops at rrp, its the same with music and films, people have put alot of effort into the games, music, films
Because it is Copyright by the Company/Console which is breaking the law.
copyright laws is one thing.
Another is that the gaming industry don't get any more money if people can download games for free.
because its like stealing...you see a free sample on hot dogs...you want more...you take the whole hot dog!
because its like stealing, thats if its copyrighted..
Its against the law.
