Report: SecuRom DRM Found in Dragon Age II

"I purchased a broken product from a company with a track record of broken products".  Exactly.  You know the pain is coming.  Like purposefully hitting your thumb with a hammer.  Why get mad at EA?  This is what they are.  Is there any doubt at this point?  Next time you see a shiny new game with the EA label, pick up a hammer and smash your thumb to remind yourself.  You'll get the pain but be $60 richer.

I do understand the desire to play RPGs.  I played Demon's Souls instead of the first Dragon Age.  Excellent game.  I got Two Worlds II instead of Dragon Age II.  Not polished, but a 7.5 to 8.0 experience.  I also supported with my money another company who is showing improvement and doesn't use that money to buy a hammer to hit my thumb with.  I know we aren't all alike, some people want to play Dragon Age.  I just don't get the anger and surprise.  I recognize the Lucy's of the world holding the football, I'm just not Charlie Brown.

I bet this crap is going to be in Mass Effect 3 too? Wonderful. Guess I'll spend that money somewhere else.

Well good; my finances are tight and I was wondering if I could justify the purchase of Dragon Age 2.  EA has made my decision for me.

Wow....... EA fail!

I have a dream, break the chains of copy right oppression! http://zippydsmlee.wordpress.com/2010/05/21/cigital-disobedience/

As if the "get banned from the boards, lose all the games you paid for" bullshit wasn't bad enough, there's this too?

The best part of all this is that only the people who bought the games have to deal with this shit. The people who pirated it don't have to put up with it at all. I wonder if any publisher is going to figure out that DRM doesn't work. After all, everybody else figured it out years ago.

Awesome , nothing better than punishing the users that actually want to pay money for the game with a poorly designed DRM that brings far more problems than it solves and what was that problem it was trying to solve because it doesn't seem to fix the pirating issues.  The only winner here seems to be the creators of SecuROM, as for the gamers willing to pay money for these games we've been thrown under the short bus once again.

I don't condone pirating software, but the more intrusive the DRM gets on these games the more I understand why some people keep going back to the torrents. 

SuckuRom sucks and should be destroyed completely.
