it's times like this when i wish game develpoers took the movie/music industries approach to pre release piracy. I mean it can't be that hard to identify where in the chain the leak occured, and take that company to court.

Is completely confused about the celebrations. The copy protection they've "rolled back to", is still the most intrusive measures that have been tried to date. How on earth can people be willing to live with this form of protection. When I buy a movie I expect it to work on any dvd player(that it's compatible with) I possess now and in the future. I should not have to beg the company to allow me to run it in how many years time. This is not even remotely
[quote]What impact on legitimate users? It's a piracy check, if you're a legitimate user the game would run fine.[/quote] er.. i bought it. encountered the copy protection the method of copy protection used has a dependency on the bios / cd-rom drive. if the manufacturer doesnt provide regular updates to their hardware, you encounter problems (ie package desktops/laptops from dell, hp, etc) other games have similar methods, remembers buying bfme2, losing every gam
