I used to love old keygens with their pixel art and chiptune music. That was honestly the best time to be on the internet.
Jason Scott did a talk at defcon a while back specifically about warez pages in old video games. That scene was wild from the beginning.
A lot of them still have the music. They’re not quite the same as the old school ones, but some have some bangers.
I didnt even know keygens still existed, i thought everything just had a cracked executable these days. Im trying to think of the last one i saw, probably like 12 years ago, but it was more professional looking than most legitimate programs, with really amazing graphic design and music and a really well made ui. It wasnt just a keygen, there were other options, but i cant remember what else it did or what game it was for.
It’s mostly software that still has key gens
Also some cracks come with a lil keygen like thing that cracks the game right then and there. Those will sometimes have them too.
