GTA IV has something similar, if you play a cracked copy eventually the camera starts to wobble and it makes it impossible to play, and it makes it look like a bug. I remember thousands of players asking in the forums why their camera was shaking without knowing they're telling everyone they had a pirated game. Hilarious move from Rockstar.

For those wondering, yes it happened to me, it was absolutely infuriating like "man this fucking game is full of bugs", lol.
