Good Old Games
I found Civ City Rome to be disappointing, compared to the Caesar games, so you may not be missing much. Wasn't anything too awful though.

It is ok, not much of a city sim as opposed to a traffic one but it is still fun to paint a city.

I'd expect an anti-tamper scheme to be more active than just hoping no one reverse engineers your .exe's. Heck, by your definition, I don't think a compiler meets the critertia of "Anti-tamper software (or tamper-resistant software) is software which makes it harder for an attacker to modify it." Closed source stuff is usually to just hide trade secrets (well some of them anyway) rather than worrying about people modifying your application - and if they do, it's not really your problem. I've had that with customers in old jobs - joys of DBs, I guess. I'd be surprised if developers would come out and slam their third party vendor, well, unless they are the one that made the call to use it, kind of a bad play, really. I'd be more inclined to listen to the offense in terms of figuring out what it does, bit of sifting.

So closed source is an anti tamper mechanism? And you are more likely to get a decent assessment of DRM's capabilities from those trying to break it. Else the whole idea of white hats wouldn't work. Just takes work to speak to real scene folk.

It would prove that leftism is genetic. Not really. But at least it would be a change of abuse at him.

Seriously ? I was going to post a thread about this last night but held off due to figuring it would be a bilious (always wanted to use that word) one

I never did send him a birthday card. We share the same one.

Finished the Covert Ops campaign for SC2. It was alright I guess, those last missions were pretty damn hard for me - gave up and just did the last one on Casual rather than Hard, pathetic but I realized my limit there. Ending was pretty meh, but what else does Blizzard deliver

That sounds pretty terrible, to be honest. Maybe I'll wait for bargain bin

Mankind Divided needs to go cheaper before I'll bite on it. Still plugging away at Rise of Tomb Raider, rather enjoying the tomb puzzles this time around.
