gta4的故事

上次说到米国爸爸那边的发布比较有组织有纪律,但是从现在的情况看来,这个组织纪律性也正在受到挑战.

背景资料:gta4的发售日期是北美12月2日,欧洲澳大利亚12月3日.

大约在11月30日,thepiratebay上出现了pc版的种子,并很快的被转到了很有影响力的pt站demonoid和在国内还没被封的mininova上,很多人心存疑虑,不过很快他们就发现这是真档.

接下来的两天里,各种未经验证的破解在bt站上流传,其中有个用nfs里的paul.dll冒充破解的也骗到了一堆人,名为offline activtion的那个也是被哄抢,接下来还有一个冒充razor1911的假档.这些破解还是存在一些问题,比如第一个存盘点前会镜头乱晃,存盘后读档继续游戏就基本正常.

12月2日,一个0x0008的group在scene上发布了gta4,尽管在nfo里说了这段话,最后还是以stolen from p2p的理由被nuke了.

Notes to nukers: Before you nuke this release with reasons like    嘲 ?
 ?俺                   "stolen.from.p2p" and so on, please check proof   嘲 ?
 ?俺                   screenshot in 0x0008-dir on DVD1, thx.      

12月4日是一个值得纪念的日子,这一天scene上一共有4个发布,3个crack only的dox,和一个iso.

Grand Theft Auto IV (c) Rockstar Games *CRACK* *WORKING*     LOBO
bad crack, triggers will activate and make game unplayable
Grand Theft Auto IV (c) Rockstar Games *CRACK ONLY* *PROPER*     WURSTSUPPE
copy protection not removed
Grand Theft Auto IV (c) Rockstar Games *CRACK ONLY* *REAL PROPER*      FCUKTHESCENE 
copy protection not removed

最后这个很有挑衅意味的名字似乎是最开始发布gta4的那些人,nfo里狠狠的嘲弄了scene一番.

WELL WELL WELL FIRST WE RELEASE GTA IV EARLY EVERYONE BITCHS ITS FAKE OR NO SEEDS, THEN SCENE GROUPS
PACKS OUR SHIT UP AND RELEASE IT AS THERE OWN NOW WERE BACK AGAIN BITCHZ WITH THE PROPER CRACK
SOME MAY EXPERIENCE PROBLEM WITH WOBBLE CAMERA JUST RESTART GAME

FCUK THE SCENE! P2P4LYFE

oh yeah heres how ya do it

最后一个iso发布属于ston3d,他们在nfo里解释了那个paul.dll的用法,并要求使用者自己想办法去搞到序列号.nuke理由也是简单明了:stolen crack + not playable without serial.

当天,fed0r在thepiratebay上发布了他们的cam fixed破解,也就是那个27k版.除了无法使用命令行,基本没什么大毛病.命令行问题也在一两天后提供了解决办法.

第二天,0x0008又发了一个crack only并发表了退出声明.这个发布继续被nuke,理由是stolen from fed0r,并指出not a crack, this is a loader.0x0008这个存在时间没超过一个月的group,结束了他们短暂的历程.他们所有发布都因为stolen from p2p的理由被nuke.

12月7日,razor1911发布了他们的破解,老牌group果然不同凡响,一夜之间各个站点不再纠缠于proper和real working的名字,那之后,mininova上所有的发布都属于razor1911.

至此,gta4发布破解大战基本结束,p2p在发布速度和实用性方面占得全面上风,scene勉强在品质把握上扳回半城.银河的历史,又翻过了新的一页....
