It shows they are desperate more like. For a company that has just created such a DRM in order to stop even one copy being pirated, to then give away it's products shows that they really are in the ****. They don't give a rats about SH5 customers, they just want to sweeten the image of their company as they know that Splinter Cell Conviction and Settlers 7 are coming out next with the same DRM crap and they want to encourage as many as they can to give their fun DRM a go and buy their games with the psychology of 'well if it doesn't work that well, I'll get a free game anyway' instilled in the potential customer.
UBI know that give something for free, even a turd, it will generate an irrational sense of goodwill in many.
