All trace of Silent Hunter 4 wiped from Gamespot? - Page 2

WhiskeyBravo · 04-26-07, 03:00 AM

Didn't Gamespot host a review that pointed out 'bugs' that were in fact part of the copy protection system indicating that they were using an illegal copy?

I'm probably remembering it wrong but it's good to add to the conspiracy theory!

Some people had those issues with legitimate installs.

I can find literally NO trace of that game anywhere on the site. The forums dedicated to it have been pulled down, the reviews are gone, videos are gone, entire game PAGE is gone.

Sh3 is still present, though.

What's up?

The reviews aren't good.

One magazine misjundge the game.

The truth is the game is pulled incompleted and buggy.

Some vitriolic reviews there for sure. This one is a blinder...

"I do not wish to be construed as racist and frankly as someone of polish descent I have nothing against eastern europeans, but this is what happens when you outsource production to eastern europe as Ubisoft has done."

As soon as you read I do not wish to be construed as racist... but... you just know you're in for a treat...

LOL. Yeah no-one ever starts "I'm a member of the National Front, but aren't foreigners just wonderful".

It's zero to do with Romanian developers, and everything to do with being rushed. I've got a hundred "Western" coded games with swathes of bugs and things.

Ah well. Nothing like a battle of wits with the unarmed huh.
