DeadSpace II scene cracked heavy anti-p2p tracking reported

This is where usenet becomes valuable. Unless they track you by having the game phone home (which a big "no-no" in development and can be blocked anyway) there's no way they can track your downloading.

That, and private trackers. I've almost completely abandoned public ones (aside from BBT, of course, since we don't really piss anybody off) in favor of ratio-driven private trackers. It's annoying to have to keep so many different ratios, but the added protection is worth it.

I remember a few years back an old buddy of mine bought Aion on steam. Too, bad, as it was completely unplayable due to steam installing NA instead of EU copy of the game. The hilarious part was that the workaround included dropping steam and install from Aion website using cd-key you got from steam.  ;D I am sure it works now, but fuck! This is just one of many examples where steam fucks up a game at a release.
