| WiiStation360 said: There has to be a happy middle ground between pirates and DRM for regular consumers. DRM is not going away, they just need to find something that is more acceptable to users. On a more positive note, all DRM was removed from PC Bioshock today. Maybe timed restrictions are they way things will go in the future. |
Actually, they just allow unlimited installs/no-checks, etc. The SecuROM security is still on there and the server is still active. It's not as bad as before, but it's still on there.

"Our other methods of copy protection remain. You will still have to activate your copy, and you will still need to keep the disc in the drive. SecuROM has not been removed -- just the activation limits on number of installs and number of computers you can install BioShock on simultaneously.
As I promised that the activation limits would go away, I can promise that if we ever stop supporting BioShock in the ways you speak of, we will release a patch so that the game is still playable. I believe, as you seem to, that BioShock will be the kind of game we will want to revisit 5, 10, 15 or more years from now. I want my copy to be playable, just as you do, and so does 2K."
