SH3 was protected enough and didn't cross the line. Open all torpedo tubes. Fire one through four!

BS buddy, you obviously don't recall the huge flame wars that went on with the release of SH3 and the whole Starforce fiasco. Many many folks had far worse problems with Starforce than with Securrom kindly do a search on the issue (especially about 2005 or so) many foks cursed SH3 and UBI as badly as you are doing now. So let me ask you are you having any problems with Starforce and SH3??? Otherwise please stop with the whining and ranting that will destroy our hobby.
