So, if I buy Mass Effect for PC and for some reason need to install it more than three times, I need to contact EA and sit through likely an hour + of being on hold, just to use a game that I already paid money for and already own.

Yep, glad I purchased that there 360.

What are you talking about? You can install Mass Effect an unlimited times. The DRM only lets you activate the game in 3 different machines.

 

 

Not reading the article for the win.

The article clearly states that if you uninstall and reinstall the game, even on the same PC, it still counts toward the three-installs limit.

No, whoever wrote that article is completely wrong. You can only activate Mass Effect on 3 different computers, but each computer can install the game an unlimited times.
