The game may be cracked but you should browse a few of the forums attached to the P2P sites to see the hoops a large percentage of folk are jumping through to get the game working (mounting DVD iso's, mini images, renaming folders, importing stuff into the registry, editing the registry) and, quite often their game will crash on exiting the sphere in Rapture. Demonoid alone has 62 pages of posts with folk trying to get it working. In comparison to this I spent ?25 and ten minutes to install it and have been playing since day of release with no problems. I know which one I prefer.

yeah, but they're idiots, which is to be expected at a torrent site.

it's extremely simple to use and requires very little instruction. you
install the game as usual, let it update, when it says there's a disc
error you rename the bioshock folder than cancel. copy the crack files
over, import the .reg file. done.

it won't be long until someone creates an installer that completely
automates the process, if one doesn't already exist.


Which wasn't working for many - however they may be idiots as you say. Certainly sounds easy. Fact remains a lot of folk are having probs getting the crack running. For me that compares to the issues folk had getting the retail game running - piracy is not without its issues.

As an aside (and thinking about idiots) I wonder what the demographic is of those sites... I'd have thought inhabitants of those kind of member only sites would be fairly PC literate but I very often see the most stupid questions asked... "how do I play an MKV file" for example

I'm guilty of replying to said stupid questions at that site too.

If only TV shows aired here same time as the US eh? Like BSG S1 on Sky One before the damn yankees got to see it :P
