Is this really happening?

Excellent, suits them right. I do hope that they will be severely punished.

I agree. Lock the game pirates up before they kill another developer!

Interesting that the online gaming community did what law-enforcement agencies could not. Geek-power, an untapped national (or rather international) resource?

Good. Maybe this will make people think twice about doing these kind of things in the future.

Well they delayed the game so much that people just got sick and tired of waiting.

I'd rather wait a bit longer for a well developed bug-free game, then to get another 'temple of elemental evil'. ;)

Hehe, yeah well it's different from people to people :D

So what kind of sentence to you give the hackers??
Either way it is good that they caught them. :D
