JoshDuffMan discovered 3 months ago- A gamer lamenting the horrible copy protection in Mass Effect.

- Seriously. This DRM thing will only discourage people from actually buying it
- Torchiest rated 7 weeks ago
- Great piece slamming EA's idiotic DRM practices.
- Sircell rated 8 weeks ago
- This is incredible. The only people who have to suffer are the ones who have actually payed for it.

- This is kinda old. After the backlash, EA announced that they are not going to use SecureROM and instead a new system that will check for authenticity when you download new content. Fair enough IMO.

- When asked about how long this "phone home" process takes, Derek responded: "when you go to run the game, the re-auth takes mere moments during the game startup. There are no dialogs, no progress bars, nothing for you to enter or confirm. It just goes." I've hammered away at this so often in the past that it now causes physical pain to reiterate - people playing on pirated copies won't have to endure this check, because the hacker will have removed or disabled it.

- Pirates will just work even harder to make a patch just to piss of EA, it's in the pirate's nature.

- EA is doing some really dumb things to protect their games and won't solve anything but hurt their business. Read up about Spore, you'll see what I'm talking about.
- Freemanhasaposse rated 2 months ago
- Because SecuROM is on these games, it becomes necessary to either pirate them or not purchase them at all. Bioware got my money for Mass Effect (before EA bought Bioware.) But the sixty bucks that would have gone to Spore just got spent on something else-and that's not going to stop me from getting a copy of Spore.

- A description of EA's latest masterpiece at killing PC gaming. I mean why would anyone buy a PC game that has all the crap installed on it? Is this an attempt to convert more people to console gaming, or just an attempt to improve the percentage of people using pirated games so they can push for even more draconian DRM tools. DNA Game Ownership maybe? :-)
