<\/p>\nWhat do you do if you happen to receive your copy of Skyrim a few days earlier than the rest of the world?<\/p>\n
Why, you pirate it, of course.<\/p>\n
At least that’s what has happened today, when a few gamers were fortunate enough get early play on Bethesda’s next big thing – with hours of footage from the game popping up all over the net.<\/p>\n
And as far as Bethesda is concerned, don’t ask them how they feel about it, because that’s a stupid question.<\/p>\n
When confronted by a rather obnoxious question along the lines of “what do you think of my friend pirating your game” over Twitter – Bethesda Director of Marketing and PR, Pete Hines, hit back with a biting and sarcastic remark.<\/p>\n
“No, I’m completely nonplussed by people who pirate our games, whatever their defense\/rationale,” he tweeted.<\/p>\n
“What are you expecting me to say? Someone has a pirated copy of our game and is streaming it pre-launch. Um, I’m overjoyed.” He says in another tweet, which probably followed a similar question.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yeowch.<\/p>\n
Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit – unless you’re a peeved off Pete Hines who’s had his biggest game of the year pirated, it seems.<\/p>\n
Catch Skyrim – legitimately – this Friday on 11-11-11. But you never needed me to tell you that, right?<\/p>\n
