Why is the genuine PS2 game disc so expensive

Genuine games need to pay Sony a royalty for developing the game (you need to give Sony some money to develop and publish the game on PS2), the game developer has to pay a salary, the game needs money to use various new technology related equipment, the factory needs money to make game CDs, the game has to be advertised and there are advertising fees, and the company has to pay taxes, etc. This is all the production cost, so the genuine game is high. Piracy does not have the above problems, only the cost of a disk (about 1 yuan).

The quality of piracy is poor, and the machine that uses the genuine version has a longer life than the machine that uses the pirated version.

The more than 50 genuine versions on the PC you mentioned are aimed at China's national conditions"Optimization"Some of those are old games, some are shoddy, and some are pirated to fill the numbers.

However, PC games do not need to pay a premium, because PC is an open platform, but the PC of the same era is far behind the game console in terms of game function, so the development of games on the latest game console will use more manpower and material resources, and the cost will naturally be higher.

Therefore, in terms of production, PC games are rougher than game console games, so almost all of the stand-alone games that sell millions are TV games, and the corresponding PC games will be lower. But the price of foreign PC games will not be only one-tenth of that of video games, which is just a special case in China (in order to fight piracy, the profit is minimized, and the packaging is almost to the most simplified).

Why is the genuine one so expensive?

So I ask you, what do companies that specialize in making games live for? It's not worth it to make a game for a little profit, isn't it?

Piracy is not harmful to the machine, whoever plays PS2 and makes the genuine version is too big!

From my understanding, after all, the popularity of PC is much higher, so the market is large, and there will be more people developing the market, which will naturally cause a decrease in **. But it may also have something to do with the machine itself, such as PSP, why PSP's game masterpieces are much less than NDS, largely because the cost and time to make games on PSP are higher, and the profit will be less, so...

Because game manufacturers rely on Z version software to eat, plus the profits of intermediate buyers and retailers, as well as the price gap at home and abroad.

That's because other countries protect intellectual property rights more than China. Moreover, the foreign gaming industry makes money from games, not by machines. China is an exception, however. Because piracy is so rampant.

The quality of pirated discs is too inferior. But since it's piracy, you can't ask for too much

In fact, in developed countries, genuine disks are not expensive. Taking the United States as an example, an average American's monthly income is about 4,000-6,000 US dollars, and a game disc is about 40-60 US dollars, accounting for about one percent of its monthly income, if calculated proportionally, it is equivalent to us Chinese spending 20 yuan to buy a genuine game CD.

Or take the United States as an example, the retail price of their PC games, CD records, and *** movies is basically between 40 and 60 US dollars. You should not compare genuine PC discs released in China with game discs released in other countries.

In essence, there is no harm, but there is no copyright, and the genuine copyright and problems can be found by the manufacturer, and if it is serious, it can also be sued, but piracy will not work.

Pressure plate. Advantages: high reflectivity, which means that it is easier to read than the engraved disc without the pressure plate (an indisputable fact).

Disadvantages: quality is the only shortcoming of the pressure plate, I believe that the pressure plate I bought now, are very bad, I put 10 plates into it, there are 9 plates unbalanced, resulting in the machine vibration, there is a serious problem, there is a possibility of playing bald. Break it slightly with your hand, you can find that it is pressed with two plates. . .

General: It is recommended to use *** pressure plate, if there is a serious deviation, it is not recommended to use...

Engraved disc. Advantages: VB, 30 everyone basically uses this, it can be said that the biggest advantage of the engraved disc is that the quality of the disc can be controlled by itself, it can be said that 90% of the engraved disc will not vibrate when put into the machine, indicating that it is very symmetrical. 10% is that you buy fake disks and poor quality master disks.

Disadvantages: Due to the problem of dyes used in the engraving plate, the bottleneck of reflectivity is caused, and everyone says that the engraving disc is noisy. In the final analysis, it is a problem of reflectivity, in some games, the background ** has been making the bald head in the state of reading, and often needs the bald head to be shifted all the way to read the data, and the mechanical structure will inevitably be displaced, which is friction, which indicates that the machine should be oiled...

Comprehensive: If there is a *** pressure plate, you don't have to deliberately carve the plate to play. . .

I used to play PS2 with a lot of self-engraved discs, and I have used many types and brands of burning discs, so I would like to briefly talk about my experience.

Games are generally based on *** as the carrier, and there are very few small-capacity game CDs. Depending on the actual size of the game, it is usually burned on a D5 or D9 disc. D5 is a single-sided single-layer dish with a standard capacity, and D9 is a single-sided double-layer dish with a capacity.

2.Common *** burning discs are ***-r, ***+r, ***-rw. Don't worry about it - what do the latter ones mean, just remember one thing, PS2's optical drive has the best compatibility with ***-r burned discs, and some games engraved by ***+r can't be read.

-rw is a rewritable burner, and many games carved out with this one can't be read.

3.What kind of disc to buy,I provide a simple experience,Try not to buy a domestic brand,For example, Tsinghua Tongfang,The burning quality is very poor,Forget about it on the general computer,PS2The optical drive performance can not be compared with the computer optical drive,If the quality of the disc is poor, it will be very damaging to the bald head,It is not easy to read。 **On at least a burning disc with a unit price of 2 yuan, don't be greedy for cheap buy a few dimes of a miscellaneous disc, you must know, *** of the disc is more than ten yuan a piece, a few dimes of the disc can know what the quality is with your eyes closed.

If you pursue better quality, we recommend Weibao, Rhenium, Mitsubishi and other brands of ** burning discs. Most of Sony's discs are second- and third-class OEM products, and there are quite a lot of Sony's counterfeit products on the market, so they are not recommended.

The game is generally in ISO image format, which is the most common format, and there are other formats as well. = There are very few PS2 games available on the Internet right now. When burning, the image is burned into a disc, many people will make a mistake here, directly burn the image to the disk, into a data disc, PS2 is not readable.

It's hard to explain this concept in a nutshell. = Provide a simple way, burn the game recommended to use imgburn software, directly select write image to disk on it. As for the burning speed, don't be too fast, generally 4x is fine, and the fastest should not exceed 8x.

Domestic ones can be made, much stronger than piracy, and cheaper.
