They aren't giving any service standard statements, and you have no recourse against them should their server performance be crap (it will be almost impossible to re-sell the game, as it would require your Ubi account details and the e-mail accpount tied to it, and who's going to pay for that without being able to test it first?).

You can buy a physical version or a d/l (but I think I read somewhere it's around 15Gb , so that might test your internet....).

Not up to date with available internet in Wagga (and it's many years since I've been there).

I've played pretty much every sub sim there is, but I am not buying this one so long as Ubi persists with this OSP/DRM scheme.

As others have said, I'd be inclined to wait while those who are going to buy it do so and post their findings here. Neal will post a review, and that's about as trustworthy a source as you'll get.

Cheers

If your daughter wants to buy it for you on your birthday let her. Re-gift it back to her and she will love to play it (if she is 6 or 7 years old that is).
