Ubisoft found Pirating the Pirates!
Quote:
Have you ever bought a game, and then not managed to get it working on your machine? Have you ever had to resort to downloading a 'no-cd' crack to get it to run? I know I have, and I know that the games industry considers me a massive pirate due to buying their software, then running it in a way they don't like.
Which makes this thread over on the Ubisoft forums all the more entertaining. When faced with a version of Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 that wasn't working on lots of machines, ubisoft did exactly what you would have done. They went and got a no-cd crack off the internet and released it as an official patch.

Re: Ubisoft found Pirating the Pirates!
It's a wild wild world. Imagine using a pirate patch to fix an original game. Shame on you Ubisoft.
