Denuvo sues anonymous game cracker ‘voices38’ over alleged DRM circumvention seeks damages after Anti-Tamper protections bypassed in 26 games

They couldn't beat him so they decided to sue him.

Denuvo has filed a federal lawsuit in the United States against "voices38," whose real identity is unknown. Denuvo is asking platforms such as Reddit, Discord, and Valve/Steam to provide information that could identify the person.

Denuvo accuses the individual of bypassing its Anti-Tamper system in 26 games.

The key point is that voices38 primarily uses the traditional cracking method, unlike recent hypervisor-based workarounds. These cracks directly modify the game's operation to neutralize Denuvo's checks.

His activity accelerated sharply over the summer. He managed to release five Denuvo-protected games in a single day in early September, which caught Denuvo's attention.

Reminder: Why Wolverine must not flop for Sony

There are wolverines ads everywhere: on trains, on websites, in stores, on buildings, etc and not just in the USA but in almost everywhere in the world. I'm starting to hate the color yellow.

Wondering why Sony is pushing the ads so hard? Why they seem so desperate? According to the 2023 insomniac leaks, the contract between Sony and Marvel stipulates that if the game doesn't sell at least 6 million copies in its first year, Marvel has the right to terminate the X-Men exclusivity agreement. Sony is essentially staking the future of its flagship franchise on this launch.

It’s in the termination clause

Ubisoft isn’t participating in Xbox’s Disc-to-Digital program

To get us more comfortable not owning their games.

Disc-to-Digital gives a lot of extra value to the disc. The Idea is:

You buy second-hand Assassin's Creed Origins for $5 => you insert the disc => you obtain a permanent digital license.

Sony's boycott is not doing well.

PS5 Pro is currently sold out across retailers online (Best Buy, Target, Amazon, etc) ahead of GTA6 launch

It's still available on PS Direct or at significant markups from third party sellers ($1200+)

I've seen multiple people posting screenshots of their new PS5 pro on X.

Ubisoft forgot to upload the full game on steam.

Okay, I can understand Ubisoft, they're clowns. But how could Vavle have let this happen?

Bethesda employees welcome Asha Sharma with a giant inflatable rat to show her they don't like her.

To symbolically welcome management, union members installed a giant inflatable rat, nicknamed "Scabby the Rat," in front of the offices. It's a figure traditionally used by American unions to symbolize a company accused of mistreating its workers.

They also placed red flags in front of the building, one for each Bethesda employee laid off in the latest round of job cuts.

The union's explanation is: "management comes to admire the game we're working on, but they also need to see the human consequences of their decisions."

A union representative said they knew Xbox executives were coming and wanted to highlight the "damage" caused by the layoffs.
