Ubisoft Accused of Peddling Pirated Soundtrack With Assassin's Creed Brotherhood

[Physics Engine]

Actually this is a lot more common than you would think. Sometimes the pirate, cracker or fan communities are the only source for older stuff or even anything that the original devs/publishers simply don't have any more.

I just hope Ubi doesn't go after this arsa13 guy for saving their ass and instead thank him and/or give him a job.

I have the soundtrack CD from the PS3 version and i think the only probly with this pirated version could come if the quality is worse....then it feels like cheating. But if its the same thing then ppl really shouldnt worry about where it came from.

But i agree it is ironic and funny (if it is true)

amazing...

seriously if this is true... I fear for the fucking future...

Jesus Christ...

You know, the more I read about Ubisoft the more I think the company is secretly owned by Blutarch and Redmond Mann.

Whatever one does...

Blutarch: Ha HA! To defeat those cursed customers and their filthy piracy I shall craft a Download Rights Management system so diabloical that no man shall ever be able to play my games without my express permission!
I shall be able to revoke all those putrid little 'customer's' pathetic little products at my merest whim, all in the name of preventing piracy!

Redmond: Well HA ha! To you brother I present an equally diabolical counter. We shall peddle those pirates... THEIR OWN RIPS! How can you claim to fight piracy whilst your precious purveyances distribute it?

Blutarch: Damn you o'brother!

Redmond: Damn you indeed!

Helen: Five
Helen: Four
Helen: Three
Helen: Two!
Helen: One!!!
New game released!

Que the music!

Ubisoft, aka "Always Connected DRM" caught pirating?
If you can't beat 'em, join 'em amirite?

 

[godfist88]

i'm so confused right now...

 

[SovietSecrets]

If Ubisoft can pirate their own stuff, then I will too. Fantastic, thank you Ubisoft!

 

[RA92]

Double standard much?

Ah Ubisoft, you are such a...

http://i.crackedcdn.com/phpimages/article/4/1/7/41417.jpg?v=1You guys really expected a penis, didn't you? You pervs.

I dont know what to say but if this is indeed fully true then this is pretty damn funny

Nuff said.

 

[Buccura]

And just when I was starting to think more positively of Ubisoft.

 

[tman_au]

Don't surprise me in the least. Previously they've resorted to using scene cracks as fixes for people who had DRM issues and couldn't play the game. Seriously how weak is that?

 

[Sn1P3r M98]

Wow, nice going Ubisoft. Entertaining story, yes, but still a bit fishy.

 

[vrbtny]

Haha, it seems like Ubisoft's new policy on piracy is to just pirate their stuff right back.

Win^^

And pretty much Ninja'd.

 

[Wolfram23]

That's hilarious! Although I should point out that in Canada, it's perfectly legal to download music and movies for personal use from torrents. But yeah... sounds like some lazy work on their side.

 

[belderiver]

Delicious irony.

 

[murphy7801]

What makes it worse is they didn't keep it in FLAC. Music quality FAIL.

Because the same flunkie who dl the torrent thought no one with pc would know how use a flac file lol.

 

[gyroscopeboy]

haha this is great, good on Ubisoft. Pirating their stuff back

 

[Jagji56]

Haaa, Ubisoft.

PR Team:
'We are against pirating! We will not stand for it! Thats why we made a STEAM clone!'

Dev Team:

'I can't be fucked re-doing the coding for this. I will just downloaded it from Pirate Bay.'

What makes it worse is they didn't keep it in FLAC. Music quality FAIL.

Hahahaha, thats just priceless. They steal a stolen soundtrack and make it WORSE for paying consumers....hahahahahahahaha
