And getting a game that was mostly unplayable would have been a best-case scenario for anyone playing Mighty No. 9, as a non-negligible number of players had to deal with the game extending its unplayability to other games — because it hardlocked the goddamn system. Even worse, this was happening to the people who’d directly financed Mighty Bricker no9. and got it directly from the devs. Imagine being a special backer, getting the awesome special code to unlock the game, then having to unplug/replug/repeat your console when you tried to play.

Counter Strike: Global Offensive Gives Your Computer To Hackers
Yeah, if you were counting on having a fun time laughing at yet another small game you’ll never play and not on have to close Steam in a panic, we apologize. The Secret group, which is not an actual secret group, but merely a mysterious white-hat hacking nonprofit organization, found out an extremely and ever-present vulnerability in CS: GO that should scare about anyone who’d ever played the game.
For the nearly nine years players have been busy tea-bagging each other, CS: GO has a bug that allowed for something even worse – people being able to access all of your private information.
The exploit works when players click on invitations to play the game, then allows for an evil third party to completely take over your PC. The bug isn’t even a CS: GO-only problem, but a source engine one, meaning it could still be lurking in many other games using Valve’s engine. While the good news is that the bug is no longer present in most games, it is still in CS: GO as of the writing of this evergreen piece. Remember to always be careful who you go assassinating people with.
