Steam versions of certain Rockstar games are actually cracked pirated copies; something the company’s been doing for at least a decade.

So, if you buy Manhunt legitimately off Steam for £5.99, you’re essentially getting an unplayable mess, since the game thinks you’re a pirate who acquired your copy illegally.

This was first discovered back in 2010 and a number of negative Steam reviews mention the fact but it was never fixed. As a result fans have created their own patches to work around the issue, since Rockstar has done nothing to help. Incredibly, this is not the first time something like this has happened, although ironcially the other famous culprit was… Nintendo.uncovered evidence of the company repurposing a pirated version of the original Super Mario Bros. and then selling it on the Nintendo Wii’s Virtual Console.

At the time, Nintendo denied the accusations, although it didn’t issue an explanation for why references in the game’s files matched other pirated copies of Super Mario Bros. and not the original game.
