Starforce and SH4
Has anyone asked Ubisoft if SF or something like it will be included with SH4? They are clearly aware of the problems associated with this software. It's a "yes" or "no" answer from their point of view. A refusal to answer would be a "yes" in my view. Based on their answer, people can then decide if they wish to purchase SH4 or not. Although I don't like SF, I've been running this game just about every day since it came out and burning CDs and DVDs with no problems, if I just take 30 seconds to uninstall the SF Drivers before a burn. Mowgli's point is well made and to some degree he's correct, but to me, as long as there is no actual damage being done to my drives, and I see no evidence of that at all, it's no different to having a conflict between two loaded applications that interfere with each other. You make a cosmetic alteration to allow both applications to run. That's what I mean by being one of the lucky ones. I wonder how many of the folks who blame Starforce for everything wrong with their system, are actually savvy enough to know what is a Starforece related issue and what isn't. Some of the posts I've read here suggest that while SF has caused real problems for some people, it has also been the greatest patsy since Lee Harvey Oswald.
