As the
games come to the network: While a
game is in the process of
developing or testing within the producer, security is very rigid. Half
life 2 was an exception, because part of your source code was stolen
within the Valve. A hacked into the server of the company and did the
dirty work without their own hands. For other games the schedule was a
little different. There is a term in the games industry says that when
the game is "gold", the program has been finalized and is ready to
enter phase of manufacturing. That is precisely where the leaf catch:
this stage the game is going through many places and for many people
and not all are well intentioned. Halo 2, which began to be distributed
illegally nearly four weeks before its release, was hijacked while it
was being localized (translated and adapted to the language of the
country) in France - rightly so, the "generic" is all in French.
Already GTA: San Andreas was copied during the production of DVDs and
came to the net on 19 October 2004, a week before the launch in the
United States. Literally was a "Grand Theft Game" that Rockstar has not
yet clarified. Author: Eduardo Trivella
