  Crack intro
A Crack intro is a small program distributed with some cracked software, designed to let the user know which "cracking crew" was responsible for removing any software copy protection and distributing this crack.
Cracking groups would use the intros not just to gain credit for cracking, but to advertise their bulletin boards, greet friends, and tell the world how superior they were.
Programming crack intros became an art form in its own right, and people started coding intros without attaching them to a crack, just to show how well they could program.

A crack intro, also known as a cracktro, or just intro, is a small introduction sequence added to cracked software, designed to inform the user which "cracking crew" or individual cracker was responsible for removing the software's copy prevention and distributing the crack.
Initially the intros consisted of simple messages, but they grew progressively more complex as (the programmers from) each cracking crew attempted to show off how much more talented they were than (other programmers in) other groups.
Cracking groups would use the intros not just to gain credit for cracking, but to advertise their BBSes, greet friends, and to give themselves recognition.

Programmers started adding "Crack intros" to the cracked software to show which cracking crew was responsible.

 Intro to fracture equations
Mode I: the forces are perpendicular to the crack (the crack is horizontal and the forces are vertical), pulling the crack open.
One force is pushing the top half of the crack back and the other is pulling the bottom half of the crack forward, both along the same line.
This would not cause the crack to grow, since all of the material would be moving in the same direction.

 Commodore 64 Games in Europe - AtariAge Forums
I guess the reason why you only see cracked versions is that all games (both cassette and disk) had copy protection.
The crappy part though, is that in the process of cracking the games, they usually had to remove whatever fastloaders the game had.
most of the cracking groups seemed to be more concerned with being the first to release a specific game than actually doing the best crack.

 st-00 - classic chip .MODs
TDK/Melon, aka Mark Knight, was always in the top echelon of early, catchy chip-composers, and his work with the geniuses at Melon on their tiny and brilliant Crystal crack-intros was without compare, as was this particular soundtrack to the "Tetris Intro" by Melon, a phenomenal 40k intro from back in '91..
English prodigy 4-Mat was possibly the first person ever to make 'chip'-tunes on the Amiga by looping tiny samples to make reallyreallysmall.MODs, and this classic, for English crew S.A.E. from about 1990, shows that his original style is still a winning style..
In case you don't know, RAW was the premiere Amiga disc-mag for most of the duration of the Amiga scene.

 CD Baby: THE CRACK EMCEE: Rap's Creation (Planet Rock)
It's not that the Crack Emcee's been riding that train for years, having adopted the handle during Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" jihad, when cozying up to hubba was roughly equivalent to declaring for Hamas during Intifada 2002.
What's important is that the Crack Emcee is - and this is no joke - some kind of genius, with a gift that seemingly sparks randomly or maybe just when he feels like squeezing off a few rounds.
Well, the answer is yes, he sounds like all of these contemporaries, and at times like Ice Cube and Africa Bambaataa and Run-D.M.C. and the Bomb Squad and Negativland and Too Short and John Coltrane and Raw Fusion and Michael Ivey and Devo and Moby and Fishbone and Prince and Axel Rose.

I still remember seeing the intro to Microprose Soccer way back in 1989.
I can’t even remember who coded the crack intro now, but it and the other intros I saw that year and later gave me the inspiration to try my hand at the amazing graphical effects that were being done.
The irony is that a lot of the intros were techologicaly more advanced and better looking than many of the games at the time.
