And I thought Starforce was bad.
Well, I'd take SecuROM over Starforce.
Just to give people an idea though:
I got FarCry 2, and decided to crack it because I didn't want all the DRM **** on my compy. The FC2 installed exec was 16 megs. The cracked exe with the DRM removed was less than 1.
Another thing too; I mentioned this in the Fallout 3 thread. A problem with that game is frequent CTD's. If you crack it, you experience in the ballpark of
sixty percent less crashes, due to no longer running SucuROM. 60% effing percent. That's just ridiculous. When the DRM (and seriously, why can't we just call it "copy protection"? Oh yea, that's illegal) interferes with your lawful use of a purchased good to that extent, I'm sure that's breaking some laws in the CCC and I imagine in some other countries as well. It's complete BS. And the DRM on Fallout was a smidgen compared to what EA and Ubisoft usually use.
