Tricked Batman Pirates Find Game Impossible

[Andre]

The publishers of the PC version of Batman: Arkham Asylum are quietly laughing among themselves as their novel anti-piracy solution causes a pirate to break cover – for gaming tips.

An unsuspecting poster on the Eidos forums started the ball rolling with what seemed like a request for a tip on the game, spelling mistakes intact…. I’ve got a problem when it’s time to use Batman’s glide in the game. When I hold <Space> , like it’s said to jump from one platform to another, Batman tries to open his wings again and again instead of gliding. So he fels down in a poisoning gas. If somebody could tell me, what should I do there?

Keir from Eidos posted in the thread with the solution:

The problem you have encountered is a hook in the copy protection, to catch out people who try and download cracked versions of the game for free. It’s not a bug in the game’s code, it’s a bug in your moral code.

Oh oh, busted…
