Lies in documents, pirated, harmful products, etc. : download illegally pc games

السؤال

Assalamu Alaykum Dear Dr. Monzer, May Allah keep you in safety and in a good health ! The following is a question which we need your answer to it. Ahmad from Alexandria asks : Peace be upon you. I'm an Egyptian guy, I love Pc Games, it the main entertaining thing in my life. From a little period of time I used to download them illegally from internet. Then I discovered that that's considered violation of copyrights which is strictly preserved in Islam and that's considered transgression on other right. So I decide to buy them. The problem is this : there are no any game retailers in Egypt except just two in Cairo (Virgin mega stores and game valley). I traveled from Alex to Cairo to buy the games I want, but I found that they had a very small and old collection which I don't want, I asked them to import them from outside but they refused. I made a visa internet card and tried to buy the games online from Amazon, eBay and direct downloading sites but most of the games I want are restricted to Egypt. It can't be bought or shipped to Egypt because of VAT and other taxation issues. I messaged the company that produces the games in USA. I told them if they can show me any method to buy the games by any means. They completely neglected me. My question is : can I Play the illegal copy of the games ? Knowing that the company will never lose anything if played it me because there are already thousands of cracked versions are being downloaded from the net daily whether I download it or not and there is not any method to give them the price of the game. I really want to pay them but I don't know what to do ? Can I play the unofficial till I am able to pay them ? Thank you in advance
