I'd love to see your reaction had you bought SHIII only to see it didn't work on your machine because Starforce prevented it Lord Knows Why (and you get no answer from customer support until 5 weeks later), Gizzmo.
It's very easy to critize another people for doing just the only thing they can in order to play their legally-purchased software, even if that means playing the crappy 1.0 version (now I'm playing with 1.4B and RUB this is a whole new world!!!), when you have never had a problem running yours.
But if you were stuck with that problem, I'd love to see wether you used the "no-DVD Fix" or not. I'm sure you would. To qualify that thing as "Illegal" is plain stupid. It's easy to critize anothers for doing anything in their hand to play a game they have payed for. At least is easy when you have had no such problem. But once you have it, then what would you do?. Return the game and lose the experience an amazing simulation as SHIII is?.
No way.
Anyway: He's paid for his game, so for heaven's sake, let him at least try to play it!!!!!.
