Fallout 3 Already Hacked, on Torrent Sites

By James Walker • October 10, 2008

So get this, the Xbox 360 version of Fallout 3 has already fallen victim to piracy. The game isn’t even due out for another three weeks, and somehow some entrepaneurial hackers got ahold of the game for the Xbox 360, ripped it, and threw it up on several torrent sites.

It’s unsure how the hackers came into posession of the game. Since the game has gone gold, however, it is feisable that somebody at the manufacturing center where the game is being produced may have leaked the code to a hacker, or have posted the code online themself.

Now before you get all giddy and run off to ThePirateBay or TorrentReactor, keep something in mind: You need a modified Xbox 360 to play the thing. Most of you know this, but I point this fact out because a personal friend of mine tried for a week to get a ripped copy of Gears of War to run on his newly purchased 360, and refused to believe me when I told him that he needed a mod chip. He’s a dumbass like that.

If you don’t plan on downloading this pirated copy and instead will wait with the rest of us decent, law abiding folk, Fallout 3 will be released on October 28th.
