    There is nothing more ironic than large game companies throwing the largest temper tantrum the second a single person pirates their game but then years to even decades later decide that they are gonna profit off the hard work it might have taken a cracker to remove DRM by selling copies with the cracks and act like there is absolutely nothing wrong.

      Don’t forget the part where they screwed paying customers for over a decade by forcing them to experience the game the way a pirate would have…

      Except pirates never had a bad experience because Razor was smarter than the crack protections coded in by Rockstar 😬

        I have a far better gaming experience buying than cracking garbage all the time. I’m not sure what crack you are on but most of my games are installed via remote app and playable in one click.

      No there isn’t. They would stop the cracker if it were worth the time. It’s not so they are forced to deal with it.

      There is NOTHING wrong with turning around using that code used to steal from them.

      They probably did? But there wasn’t any, it doesn’t seem like. Razors crack fooled securom and simply bypassed anti crack measures. Back in the day, it was usually the patchers and tools that got flagged.
