So we're saying "ported" instead of pirated? More advanced pirating? Seems to have fuck all to do with the idea of Sony themselves ditching exclusivity.

Well the porting wouldn’t be required if there was a PC version to pirate.

Maybe a new term. pirorted.

It's still a port even if it's unsanctioned and spread through torrent/etc.

Pirates use ports so it's okay.

There's no PC version of the game, so it's not pirated. At best you could say counterfeited, but it's not really that either
