FILEnetworks Blog: Steam version of F.E.A.R. 2 - Project Origin leaks on BitTorrent

One of the most anticipated PC titles of 2009, F.E.A.R. 2 – Project Origin has leaked on a well known private torrent tracker as well as on several public BitTorrent trackers 3 days before the game’s official release date. If you are a pirate and thinking of downloading the leaked version, there is something you should know – it does not work, at least for now it doesn't. The release which is around 11.3GB in file size appears to be the Steam version of the game (Multilanguage including English and Russian).

UPDATE: Pirates Crack F.E.A.R. 2 : Project Origin Steam Protection

As you may already know, Steam games are protected by a release date check (among other things). Since F.E.A.R. 2 : Project Origin has not been officially released yet, release date check will fail and those who download this will be left with a non working 11GB archive. However, pirates have successfully managed to bypass steam protection on previous occasions using hacked or cracked steam clients, emulators, custom installers (such as the one Razor1911 created for Saint’s Row 2). Whoever uploaded leaked version to the aforementioned private tracker has stated the same in his uploader notes.

** THIS IS THE STEAM VERSION OF THE GAME, YOU CANT PLAY UNTIL REL. DATE OR YOU NEED WORKING CRACK (CRACKED STEAM) **

Uploaded for those who want it ( yes its exactly like giving you the Lamborghini, but you wont get the keys ) , those who dont, just go away kkthx

I should point out this version is more for those guys, who like to play around with stuff like this, thinking they might be able to do some cracking work, so noobs stay away for your own good and your ratio

In the end, chances of a crack being released for F.E.A.R. 2 : Project Origin is quite high (which game doesn't get cracked these days?). However note that there is no crappy DRM such as SecruROM embedded in F.E.A.R. 2. So if you are thinking of pirating this game, ‘i hate DRM’ won’t be a good excuse in this case.
