Honestly, I'm surprised by this. Given the amount of backlash Ubi have received over their OSP, I would have thought that other developers/publishers would have steered well clear of such a scheme, but obviously they have yet to learn their lesson! They will in time though, you can be sure of that.

What backlash?
So long as thousands of 'Wives" and "Girlfriends" are lovingly buying their husbands and boyfriends copies of SH5 and AC2, why should they care about how many online articles and forum rants against their system there is?

And I guess this news means no Medal of Honour: Afghanistan for Little Old Yak...

The phrase 'Infinite Retardation' from Generation Kill springs to mind WRT this whole issue...
