Assassin’s Creed ll and the "new" DRM scheme
We don’t have a "Gaming News" section, but if we did, I think this would qualify….
Assassin's Creed 2 DRM by Koroush Ghazi of TweakGuides.com
Source - TweakGuides.com - Assassin's Creed 2 DRMAssassin's Creed 2 (AC2) was delayed for release on the PC, coming roughly four months after its release on the XBox 360 and PlayStation 3. Unfortunately, it seems that aside from the delays, AC2 will be remembered primarily for introducing a new form of copy protection/Digital Rights Management (DRM) developed by Ubisoft. In the face of the widespread hysteria and misinformation on this topic, I've prepared this page in the hopes of providing some factual information based on personal experience with the system in question.
I agree with a lot of what this guy is saying and it is something we PC gamers have to worry about as more and more games are going the way of the consoles
If you've never visited TweakGuides.com I urge you to do so. The guy is pretty knowledgeable and has a host of gaming tweak guides as well tweak guides for XP, Vista, and Window 7.
Good site.
PS - Since this is a touchy subject for most, I'd like to say that as passionate as people on both sides of the coin are, let's not get banned over them.
