I'm not against cd protection at all but when it goes this far where it can effect the performace and integrity of my pc thats a no-no i dont care if its the best game in the world i still wouldn't buy it or even play the demo.

I am against warez very much so (matter of fact i work for an organization that helps stop it) but i am still for no-cd and backups since thats what the law entitles you to starforce prevents this in turn breaking the law.

I've bought and happily played tons of Sf3 games (toca rd 2, panzers phase 1, both trackmanias, soldiers: howw2, etc, etc, etc...) and i've never EVER had any problems with SF3.

I'm not saying everyone will have problems but some people with untested or more uncommon hardware / software combinations might wreck havok with their protection ..

after my experiance i wouldnt touch it with a ten foot pole since i know what its capable of, many users don't think of the problems until it happens to them slowly & severly (many issues go un-noticed for example a simple application crash might be related and since the driver is hidden its hard to acuse and most average users wouldn't even know it's there) another reason the company can get away with it "how can something that doesn't exsit cause a problem"

All im saying is its going to far with these protection ..jailing us treating us like criminals i prefer not to support it. what will be next ask for ssn number / modify mbr / online license aquire (like ms DRM) / dongle / install their own os..etc?

everyone should read that sony rook kit url i posted its really intresting at what schemas they are coming up with
