Yes, we want to enjoy the game, but that doesn't mean we
will buy it. We are NOT a bunch of winning eleven junkies.

probably true, and even more if its a flop... (drm, coff coff)

please don't project your DRM-love on us...
there are many ways to fight piracy, and shoving stuff down the buyer's throat isn't the best one.

and... where does "the forum making a difference" to ubi affects cash spilling out of my wallet?
This is not about a dumb boycott, this is about personal choice, if John Doe buys it thats HIS problem, not mine. I still wont buy it.

Of course not... we aren't weak, we just arent strong enough.
Wait... what?
Also, the laws of supply and demand don't say a specific person will buy it. actually, the laws of supply and demand only show that if ubisoft counted all of our heads before starting to make the CDs they'll end up with a surplus of at least one (mine).
to sum it up...
if YOU want to buy it great for you, i hope you have a blast with it. But just because you have a little envelope that is labeled "SH V money" doesn't mean we will buy it, at least not in it's current state.
