On one hand, you're causing a lost sale to the devs, and on the other, there's no lost sale. Uh oh. Buying used games gives money to the store selling the used games. The developers agree to these terms if a game is used, because someone must have bought it before and paid $50 for the game. Someone pirating a game makes the developers lose money. Also, how many people that pirate games are actually poor and can't afford them? Link to comment

What's the different from that and 5 people pirating? Used games are on a huge scale, and if you think it causes no damage, think again. Link to comment

Not the developers or the store selling the game. 5 people buy the game used, and someone already paid initial price to the developers, and give 60$ total to the people selling the game.
