Yes, yes – Gears of War 2 has begun showing up on popular torrent sites across the internets, with a gigantic 6.76 GB file in convenient RAR format currently being seeded by hundreds of inconsiderate asshats around the world. I won’t go into details because quite frankly I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t even consider leaks news anymore. It’s going to happen, be it a week away from release or a month away. The only difference between now and any other time of the year is that more high-profile games come out during the holiday season, which I suppose means this is a busy time for everyone in the industry, pirates included.
I think the most important thing to note in this post is that my spellchecker (yes, I use one) still fails to recognise asshat as a proper word. I know I can add it in myself, but that isn’t the point. Until the word is officially recognised these leak posts will continue to make me a spellchecker rebel, living on the edge, clicking ‘skip all’ like some kind of madman.

I guess making a quality game is not enough of an incentive for people to buy them anymore.
Report PermalinkI think its time for them to increase the amount of anti piracy measures.

Guess it’s time for EPIC to bail from another platform due to piracy.
