Gangs of London leaked onto the intarweb

Ó


A lot of funny things have been happening in the PSP 'scene' lately. We've already had the onslaught of downgraders, and the magic of devhook. Just day before yesterday, Sony's UMD Authoring tools were leaked online. As if that wasn't enough, one of the very hyped-up games, Gangs of London has been leaked into the peer2peer scene, as we've just heard.

If you know your stuff, finding it will be pretty much a piece of cake since these things tend to get hyped up, even in the p2p scene. In case you'd like to stay legal, and we'd recommend you to; you can watch the intro video which we received from via an anonymous tip.

Adblock


It shows the intro movie of the game, which by the way, looks pretty good. The tipster also told us that the game is pretty much like GTA, but a bit more organised. I can't know what exactly he meant since we can't get a hold of his email address to contact him back.

It seems like there are some seriously disgruntled employees at either Sony or one of the game studios. Anyways, if you're curious about the game, you can check out our older stories here. And again, due to the illegal nature of these files, please do not link to them in the comments section.

Are watching the same video?????

If you care to watch the video PROPERLY they select UMD NOT MEMORY STICK!!! to run the game. I don't don't doubt there is something on p2p (i haven't looked yet tho) but in that video its the demo ps underground are sending out. Maybe some of u should of gone to specsavers!!!

oops didn't meen to double post!! Sorry
by eggwonder - 2006-07-26 12:38:28
hmm

well this sucks i signed up for the demo and this comes out... man why people gotta announce stuff like this. this almost makes me not want the demo but since i cant fit a iso on my 1gb and i aint a pirate... i still want my demo. you hear that sony! i want my demo!
by - 2006-07-26 12:40:52
@ LemmingMad

hey lemmingmad you jackass, devhook emulates UMD's and you select ISO's from the UMD menu as seen in this video once they have been mounted. Fool.
by LemmingMad - 2006-07-26 12:45:04
@ Ash no:34

I'm still not convinced u JACKASS They should of opened the umd door to proove it!! Any tom, *****, or harry could slip in the umd and claim is leaked software!!!!!! So if you believe this this shizzle who's the fool????? Until someone posts the video with decent fking EVIDENCE i stand by what i have said.

demo disk

it's surely the demo disk, I got one coming to my home as I speak
by akuma2099 - 2006-07-26 12:55:24
@LemmingMad

They are running it through devhook that's why you see them selecting the umd. I can tell you that it is the full UMD rip and the full game. I've been playing it for a while now.
by - 2006-07-26 12:58:53
...

i'm almost certain its not the demo, i've just got a working european version of tekken and the same guy has seeded this 2...
by - 2006-07-26 13:02:03
Why cant you children play nicely on the net.

LemmingMad, you've a good point. But more too the point who cares HOW that video was made or who made it. UMD or ISO, its still a nice intro.
by - 2006-07-26 13:02:31
...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! games should only be pirated after release in the past there have been many games and movies thrown out due to being "leeked" early an example is the movie: Family Guy Presents: Stewie B. Griffin The Untold Story That movie was leeked 6 months before release and was planned to be in the movies but was only released on DVD due to "EARLY PIRACY" I admit to pirating PSP games but when they are leaked early bad thing happen to them
by - 2006-07-26 13:10:24
yeea

It is up on Bitcomet...
by - 2006-07-26 13:26:16
OH ! no.42

link to a download site is Illegal :O
by - 2006-07-26 13:29:49
Already got this

Ive had this since yesterday so yeah its real... I say it is almost the exact same thing as gta the grafics might b a little better though and the game is fun It loads with devhook 0.45
by - 2006-07-26 13:33:56
yea

got it and its working with dev 44. plays kinda like gta but you cant roam like in gta the missions are more linear. you gotta pick what mission you want from a map.
by - 2006-07-26 13:45:59
it's real!

It is the full version, been playing it for the last couple of hours. VERY good game I gotta say, I would say it's similar to GTA but with a bit less freedom, missions just play similar. Only thing that's let it down a bit is the camera isn't perfect, jumps about a bit if you back up to a wall and try to start fighting.
by - 2006-07-26 13:56:57
#35 You wanna a vid with the UMD door opened to prove it's an ISO?

I can upload it in Youtube if you want...
by - 2006-07-26 14:16:09
it is real.

People as much as you may hate this its real I can tell you although I dont have it I know a few that does also tekken EUR was leaked which aint out till sept... It is a BETA and has several bugs like with the camera dunno who got both games but i read it was same person so somebodys gonna get sued considering it 2 diffrnt games from 2 diff manufacturers its gonna be a games magazine that leaked em as they get early copys including betas...
by - 2006-07-26 15:17:25
i doubt it's the full game

I have looked around and i found no evidence that this is real so i must say that i just don't believe it is.
by - 2006-07-26 15:21:01
100% real

don´t no why so many people have trouble accepting this is real. it´s 100% real. don´t get mad. hey i signed up for the demo disk also, lol. didn´t know Tekken was leaked. I thought it was officially out.
by enterman - 2006-07-26 15:21:26
Beta

It is a beta which was leaked onto the internet that is pretty much the full game, there probably wont be much changed from the beta to launch. Sorry for all of those in denial but this a full game beta leak. To bad for those not on 1.5
by LemmingMad - 2006-07-26 15:46:58
#47 London Gangster GO FOR IT SUNSHINE!

I would love to see it m8 (no seriously) Unfortunatly i am one of those now running 2.71 firmware (on the hope of demos) so i didn't no quite how the devhook operated. :-$ If someone can upload a vid prooving it that would be cool!!! (and stop any disbalievers like myself ;-) )
by - 2006-07-26 16:22:06
sdad

by - 2006-07-26 16:34:04

mission

I already beat the game but i hope they put more stuff into it cause every gang have the same story with just different character i just hope they added a lil bit more mission! overall it is like 20-30 mission.

How to get it

Just search this on google "download gangs of london torrent" press "im feeling lucky" and it should take you straight to the download site Then download it with a bittorrent client such as utorrent or bitcomet. Im annoyed because i only have a 1gb memory stick and its just over 1gb. They better release the 1gb ripkit soon or im gunna throw a phyche. lol. When I heard about this i thought meh but i played it on my friends psp and its awesome. Its the full version I think its in beta but its still got everything. HaPpY pIrAtInG eVeRyBoDy!!!!! Remeber this is highly illegal.
