Shadowrun Cracked To Work On Windows XP
 |
If there is one thing that rubs me the wrong way, it’s when developers deliberately develop a game so that it will only work if you have a certain version of Windows, even though it would work fine and dandy on another. Take the case of Shadowrun, a game designed and developed for Windows Vista.
Warez group Razor1911 has successfully cracked the game to run under Windows XP, without the need of DirectX 10. I stand by the fact that people wouldn’t mind upgrading to Vista if there was a good reason. Right now there are more downsides than upsides, and it’s too bad that most will miss these great games because of it.
The information text file that ships with the crack states: “Tired of waiting for Falling Leaf to produce drivers so that you can playShadowrun in XP? The wait is over, because Razor1911 already has the remedy! Yes, you read right. This game will also function in Windows XP”.
