More sheer Ubi PR genius?
If the drm in the preview copy is the same as what has been described to us, it might check for connection once a minute or every two minutes, or so. Neal may have been able to unplug and replug the cable between these checks. My question is whether the game noticed it was unplugged. We need him to unplug the cable, and see how long it takes to pause the game. We'll of course need him to repeat this many times for reliable data.

Meanwhile, while we work up a schedule for unplugging the cable, he can continue to take requests from everybody else for specific screen shots and video footage. Everybody has their pet details they want to see.

Or we can wait a few weeks and know everything.
