Stop whining ***heads. It is an effective of avoiding piracy so far. Every game should use this


New flash, not only does draconian DRM fail in preventing piracy but it also serves to generate even more. As soon as Diablo 3 is cracked and uploaded I will pirate it. I want to purchase it but that's absolutely not going to happen if I need a constant Internet connection to play single player.

 

Case in point, Spore. The restrictive DRM wasn't present in the pirated version so why on Earth would I pay money for an inferior product? By the looks of Spore's sales, its presence on torrent sites and the complaints against its use of SecuROM I can infer that the DRM only hurt its sales.
