Well, this is just hysterical. Posting on the Batman: Arkham Asylum PC forums, user "Cheshirec_the_cat" complained that Batman's glide wasn't working in a certain section of the game, leading to his death by poisonous gas. Before long, Eidos moderator Keir informed him that he had actually stumbled on an intentional glitch in the game that only affects those who pirated their copy. "It's not a bug in the game's code, it's a bug in your moral code," quipped Keir.

every game should have a bug like this. game breaking bugs would BE ALOT better than that DRM ****

HA HA!! I agree this is the kind of stuff game developers should use. You are right ATi, this is leagues better than DRM.
I'm so getting this game BTW. Saw the video review on gamespot and I'm sold.

Funny thing is the crackers have already patched it so yea it was good for a laugh, and worked for what less than a week. I am sure it took the devs longer to put it in the game than it did for a talented group to invalidate it.

**crainger** · 09-12-09, 10:26 AM

It's a good idea as long as the devs let people know.

Titan's Quest apparently had the same sort of things, but didn't tell anyone until after the studio went belly up. Intentional? Or just a way to cover up game breaking bugs?

Let me just state this in case anyone has any doubt:

The game itself does not have any bugs. PhysX implementation is a bit problematic at this time but, it works fine without PhysX. All the "bugs" are copy protection triggers. If you buy this game (and you should as its worth every penny, best game I've played in ages, have it on the x360) you will not have any problems at all with running it. No triggers, no show stopping bugs...
