Wouldn't it be hilarious if they started doing this to console games, binding them to a single machine I mean?

[QUOTE=radioactive;19879954]It also installs some spy-ware program on your computer without your acknowledgement.

What are you smoking boy?
It installs a program that checks if your game is legal or not which only runs when you are running the game.
THAT'S IT.

No. It's just the whole principle.

why would you even need to install it 10 times

I dunno maybe it's too much to have to de-activate all games with this DRM everytime you reinstall an OS.
I think I will have used up that install limit in like... 2 years?
If I used the "Delete local content." It won't de-authorize it, will it?
I'd have to use a normal uninstall? I guess I'll tweet the BFBC2 feed.

Perhaps. There is no accounting for taste.
Apparently they left out massive lag and glitches, but glitches arent as bad as massive lag.
