Hi all!
I had to join this forum to comment on this DRM-issue, too. And there is one thing, that didn't get enough attention after all:

You won't buy a
complete game; all you'll get for your $$$ is just a fragment of a game, with the missing parts being downloaded at runtime. That's the reason for the permanent connection requirement and that's the reason why the whole crack-idea will fail, in the end.
I agree that almost every other game was cracked in the past, but these guys had the whole package in their hands to do their dirty work ...
I bought SH3, won't buy SH5 as I can not support buying something that I don't own completely and, furthermore, being dependend on external infrastructure.
Cheers,
