[citation][nom]Cats_Paw[/nom]Yet another reason to "not buy original games". If they keep this, eventually only pirated games will have any sense. Some time ago someone told me that piradted games had better support, had no buggy security settings (everybody remmebers securerom), people can add their own mods easy, on some OS the software simply "aint supposed to work", yet you pirate the game, and the dude will explain to you how to make it work.Finally this crap. So lets see: Option 1: I pay 50 Euros, i get a game that will probably not work for some time, then i have to battle the security system since i dont have the latest driver, then i get to play the game and if it crashes, wait a few more weeks till they patch it, then i can play it again, and once i upgrade my windows, i can throw it away.Option 2: I download it, i play it, i save it for later.Yeah, hard choice. So far i only see buying the original game a way of thanking the company for making a good game, and then beeing not harrased by legal lawsuits (as far as i know if you have an original copy of something, you can get a pirated version as well, since you already payed for the contenent).[/citation]
cracked games not only have better support and less bugs, they also have more features.
For example most cracked games can be saved to a 8-16GB flash drive and launched from any computer.(Most games don't make much use of registry values, all they need to be able to do is create a game folder in the my documents folder for the settings and game saves)
With many games, the DRM can cause issues such as random crash to desktop issues, as well as performance issues where the DRM runs periodic memory checks which causes lag spikes.
