PlayStation 1 PS1 copy protection

First post in PS forum, WOO!

So anyway, I was just thinking back when I was at a mates place, playing a pirate version of Spyro. And there was this one section of the game where this fairy thing came out and said summat like "You are playing a stolen copy of this game, so some areas will be locked to you, suck my fairy little tits"... or summat like that.

I just thought it was cute, I like the nice little extras that they put into games, that not every gamer will see ; )

I've never heard of that. I remember hearing about people who can use a Gameshark to play burnt versions of the games on their Playstation, though.

It could of just detected the mod chip or summat, I don't really know, I just remember thinking how cute it was that they would put that in the game : )

Wait, are you serious? That actually happened?

 

[dk_rare]

Well, besides the suck my fairy little cock bit, but it really did happen, I swear it!

So did it say any insults, or just inform you that you were playing a stolen version?
