Here. It's 10,000$, not 20,000$ though. Yeah, and a trip to Moscow.

That starforce crew could give lessons in how to tick people off and make enemies. That GalCivII fiasco, earned starforce as the first drm that I boycotted.

Frankly, it just tells a lot about gamers. Many are so addicted that they have nothing against supporting people like those.

I had an attack over it on their forums some time ago, and was leapt upon by the regulars, and none too politely told to get stuffed if I didn't like it. I promptly went to a taxidermist straight away.

Yeah, it's annoying how gaming crackheads jump to defend their dealers.

Anyway, I've read some interesting false dichotomies about how it's a choice between "DRM or death of PC gaming".

Since numbers of pirate copies only go up, with no difference as to what DRM is used, the argument of "DRM or Death" is, frankly, idiotic. There is actually a strong argument that less copy protection is better, as the people who pirate games are not actually wanting to play the games, just having the thrill of being the first person to crack the DRM. The game is then released as "proof" of their abilities.
