Some legal downloaded ubisoft games had a bit of glitch, so ubisoft decided to download an illegal crack and distribute it.
I got this info from some dude who sounds like it’s a bad thing. I say it’s a great thing. I say that the people who created that crack, deserve a job at ubisoft. They deserve to not have any legal actions put on them for coming forward and explaining exactly how they created it.
Now I don’t hate the guy who posted this info, Infact I think he did a great job.
Someone needs to remind the guys from ARS Technica that the Xbox and and the ps3 have been dissasembled and mods have been made. The day GTAIV hit the shelves, hundreds already had a torrented version.
Google any Current Gen Console’s games and see for yourself..
Remember there are far more console gamers these days than there are of pc gamers. You don’t have to know how to upgrade a video card to own a console.
Microsoft said late Tuesday that it will no longer charge a fee for PC game players who wish to connect with each other over the company’s Games For Windows Live online service.Games For Windows Live is “now offering completely free online multiplayer” service, Microsoft said in a statement posted on the service’s Web site. The company previously charged a monthly fee of $7.99. However, the emergence of several free online gaming services may have prompted Microsoft to drop the monthly charge.

Microsoft introduced the Games For Windows program last year in an effort to bring console-like dependability to the PC gaming market. Titles bearing the Games For Windows logo are guaranteed to be playable online or offline on systems that meet certain specifications, according to Microsoft
I will be passing this on to my kid. I found this on Digg.com
Here is something I put together for you guys,
and well for myself to look back on, about tree years ago.
Here is the actual location of what you see here
First let’s make sure you do have either a
dual boot machine, or and hard drive with
your install of each game , on it.
I of course am doing this from my windows
partition, but do not doubt using usb type
portable thumbs,which is kinda cool.
I will work this week with grand theft
auto vice city .
Ok, Let’s go get some Wine .
you are going to need it.
Screen shot of install of wine This is
scrolling by like about 90 letters a second
FleX
Next you might need what I needed Flex ,
I use RPM Bone because I am not going
to spend a day trying to learn how to
build a package when I can
just do a search. Well whatever. If you
get a notice that you need to install
anything, the bone will help you, just
select the right distro and you are
good to get.. another File i needed
was BISON.. two seconds three tries
the rpm went well.
Console Usage
Open a console window and type:
apt-get install bison flex libncurses5-dev
Now when you begin the wine install
with this command ” ./tools/wineinstall ”
go get a soda or beer or what ever,
you might wanna grab a
couple, this sucker takes a while, but
look up from time to time it asks a yes
or no and asks you to type in admin pass.
No Cd
* You now need the no cd
crack, I can not legally
* point you to it but be sure to get the
* one that is 15 mb or so, and scan it
* HERE
Navigation
*
When you navigate to the
*
location, which for me is
*
/disks/C/Program Files/
*
Rockstar Games/Grand Theft
*
Auto Vice City where I have
*
the game
*
installed, the command
*
is “wine gta-vc.exe”or “gta_sa.exe” (which ever game you are working on) and
*
your screen will go all
*
win 95 looking in the
*
crummy resolution sense.
*
It will take a few
minutes, you might
*
want to hit the enter
*
button to get it to start,
*
it’s a tad freaky.
*
*
When game starts, look at
*
the cars and think about vice
*
city stories and liberty city
*
stories and how amazed you where
*
about the glossy cars…
Do you now see how cheap it was
*
when they did it? Screen Shot LOL..
*
cool ehh ?
Will update later when I get done
*
transferring the audio files from
*
cd to install directory.. not all
*
audio is working for me just yet.
* Ok you might get an error like this one
err:wave:DSDB_MapBuffer Please run winecfg, open “Audio” page and set
“Hardware Acceleration” to “Emulation”.
which tells you that you are not getting car motor sounds and peds sounds… well.
If you do that you will get those sounds back.. but at a cost… no radio and when you exit game.. dear god it’s a loud noise
Two new commercials came out 4 days ago.
The one that counts though is
the commercial they did for GameStop
at the very end of it, it says
and I quote
“Yes Liberty City has something for EVERYONE
, but it gets crowded. SO BOOK YOUR TRIP NOW TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT.
LINK HERE
Click on “updates ” at bottom right of the screen from
the main page, or heck, anywhere.. it will show that
the game stop commercial came out 7/17/08
Who is “everyone?” ps3 360 and pc? sounds like everyone that matters.
book your trip now? does that mean reserve the game?
Will there be a limited supply ?
Yes the video is old, and has been out for a while, but they just put it on their in the updates section.
This means they are now fishing for the people looking for clues.
Rockstar Games put up a new page
It looks like the pc version of any grand theft auto, has once again been put on the back burner. It looks like we just might not ever see grand theft auto come to the personal computer ever again.
A fourth game to come to a portable gaming system, is the third portable game to be created and not be ported to pc since GTA San Andreas. It is so far the fifth game to have been created to not be made for pc gaming.
As of now the games to not be moved to pc are as listed. This includes portable and full blown console games.
1. gta advanced
2. Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories
3. Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories
4. Grand Theft Auto GTAIV
5. Grand Theft Auto China Town Wars
I am assuming they are going to use the china town section of liberty city from GtaIII and Liberty City Stories. If this happens, can we see a port coming to Nintendo Wii? can we see a few Gta Rockstar grand theft auto games coming to the Nintendo Wii soon? I think we can.

No News of pc GTAIV
No news of any psp releases yet

Here, Grand Theft Auto Five Speculations and Rumors
It seems to be happening before the heathens can even play the game.
Funny this kid got mugged for his game, but he got it back.
These guys fight over a place in line.
See it’s idiots like these guys that make the media jump all over the place and blame the game makers because pattern keeps happening. Really and truly, I remember hearing of parents fighting over cabbage patch dolls. These parents are the age group and trend chasing media whores that are out now, scoughing at youth’s interests these days. I mean if you remember the cabbage patch kids, and you are the age group of the kids they where pushed on, you would remember the racist issue the parents forced on us. Black kid’s parents wouldn’t give them white kids and vice versa, and all around the spectrum of complexions. Again the rednecks and the beanie babies. That wasn’t the kids fighting, it was the generation that is out now who is all burned out from the acid they took in the sixties and seventies chasing rainbows. It’s these guys who thought they had a better understanding of how life “SHOULD” be, who are leading and voicing their opinion about how life “SHOULD BE” now.
Some day , very soon, my generation will be in control and we will make a mockery of their wanna be leadership.
Okay, sorry for the rant.
Grand Theft Auto is out. Go buy it – don’t fight for it.
Wanna see what you might see?

See the side by side of GTA IV on PS3 and on Xbox 360.
If the video does not load in your browser here is another link to the video .
The current estimated specs for optimal running Grand Theft Auto IV Is 2 gigs ddr ram,7200 nvidia with 128 megs ram, 3 gig processor/cpu . Direct x 9, but ten will give you more,so you might want a dx10 video card. All resource hogging junk in vista turned off. Basically you are better off with XP and heading to black viper’s site and use his method of turning off themes and everything else you do not use when you are a gamer. 800mhz fsb . Broadband internet.
Be sure and run the best cooling on your machine. Pretty much all of what is out now, is going to get hot as hell when you are playing the game (GTA IV) on your computer.
The water detail is amazing, with trash floating in the water, not on the water, but really swirls around in the water as you walk or drive in it.
There is no official announcement of grand theft auto IV being out for pc gamers as of yet, but there is no opposing info. So let’s not completely rule this out. So yeah, I have hope.
I have a spot where you can vote for a pc version at iworkwithtech.com/gtaiv It’s better than a stupid petition.
