I bought spore, not long after it was released.
I became victim to it's fanatical DRM restriction.

And now?

Now it's out on Steam.

Mother fuckers.

:(

I felt the same about my new britney spears album.

Regardless as to you being a mod:
This is a fucking worthless thread.

I just find it incredible that EA keeps their fanatical DRM on the retail copy, but theres no way they can do that over Steam. I mean, what is Steam going to do, make sure you don't install the game 3 times?

It's shitty how they'll allow someone who buys the game over a specific service to get the full freedom to not be tied down by the DRM, but those who bought it retail straight from EA's certed retailers get the shaft.

Fuck EA.

Fuck EA.

No kidding.

the Illuminati laughs at those who buy things

DRM will be gone by 2012 (So, I hear, will the planet)

Steam... Mother fuckers.

Pretty much.

Hmmm and you know this how? Please enlighten me about your knowledge of such Illuminati... (not being sarcastic) :)

"Sometimes the restrictive DRM scheme backfires and a large number of users decide not to pay for the game, seeking a pirated version instead. The most recent such case involved the DRM topology SecuROM used in Spore, BioShock and Mass Effect. The backlash against SecuROM was a significant factor in Spore becoming the most pirated game in 2008." -Wiki.

Pirate all games with DRM. They'll get the idea eventually.
