The bigger issue here is that they're trying to control what you bought from them. If you bought a game, wouldn't you expect to play it whenever you want without any hinderance or install and uninstall it as many times as you want at any time you want or whatever legal way you can use that game. You bought the rights to play that game yet all of a sudden someone hundreds of miles away tells you that these things need to be done on a weekly schedule or else we're going to prevent you from playing the game. It's simply an attempt at control and one that is so unnecessary. What if Microsoft instituted a measure where you needed to connect to their server every week to prove that your OS was purchased legally or else you can't use your computer? Or how about having to prove that you own your consoles legally before you can play them. This is about consumer rights and what EA did was just crappy. |
Depends. I would worry for the market if everyone was able to install and uninstall as they please, no hinderances. I don't support piracy. There needs to be some sort of DRM when it comes to PC games. Steam does it better.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
