The ironic thing here is that Ubisoft will undoubtedly attribute the decline in sales of their new PC games to piracy and thus will develop an even more intrusive version of DRM for us to suffer in the future!

We need to remember, guys, that the assorted nutjobs, cranks, nerds and...err...'differently social' people who make up the simming community aren't really the target audience for anything much these days. It's not very nice but it's becoming truer every day.

It's not just SH5, Egan, it's all new Ubisoft games, including big titles such as "Assassin's Creed II". Having browsed through the forums of some of these other new games, I somehow doubt that concerns will go unnoticed.
