The pirate paranoia they suffer is becoming terminal.
I'm a firm believer in these publishers getting what's due them, but this communistic leash strategy isn't the way to go because it's going to alienate those gamers who lack a permanent connection to the web.
Not to mention those of us who prefer having a hard copy on hand in case of catastrophic HDD and OS failures.
Welcome to the apex of software rentals and constant advertising and demographic snooping.
That is one of the many points I've been trying to make with the sheeple on the blogs. Oh well, they're the ones letting themselves get used.
