In a shocking revelation, Rockstar Games, known for their staunch stance against piracy, might be using pirated versions of their own games for sale on Steam. The main protagonists of this controversy are Manhunt and Midnight Club 2.

Users encountering launch issues with these titles started digging deep and found that the version of Midnight Club 2 listed on Steam might be cracked, containing a patch from the renowned group, Razor_1911.
