We're all pirates and too stupid to understand

Many new future projects will require internet to play a game.

But I'm sure hackers will crack them. Pirates laugh at this stupidity from the CEOs.

They never have a problem enjoying the game. Ever.

Like someone said in the post its about stopping second hand sales thats all. Who cares about the loyal honest clients.

I've bought my fair share of titles in used book stores because I didn't want to pay full price for something that might suck. So since all EA games pretty much suck, he is trying to stop me from buying them? Crazy.

He's not trying to stop you from buying just make you aware that you need to have a link to their server to fully play the game and that you need to follow certain conditions to play it. Your also not buying it but leasing it sorta.

I can't wait till the day when they start charging us guys monthly installments like online games similar to everquest etc.:rotfl: lol I wouldn't never buy a game like that. Their are alot of people who still don't use internet and they expect kids or adults to have it mandatory? Thats crazy.

Most indie and open source games are better imho.

Yep DRM, gamers worst nightmare. Thats why I'm waiting for ISO's for RA3 which will be awesome and Dead Space which I really want to play, go figure. I hate anything horror films or anything remotely related to it but I want to play Dead Space.

Ah well at least someone in EA admits that DRM sucks. Thats a step in the right direction

I think in ten years time all members of subsim are playing indie games. All mainstream games comes with an EA employee who has to live at home with you and check that you own the game.

:p I'll charge them room and board... and their not touching my beer..

Also from what I've seen the only games that get little piracy are the games that get little or no hype and are hardly known.
