I hate SecuROM. It does nothing to prevent piracy and everything against legitimate users.

Murphy's Law of Computer Gaming: The listed minimum specifications written on the box by the publisher are not the minimum specifications of the game set by the developer.

Dude, all that stuff is easily removed. SecuROM is nothing like StarForce.

Both are lame and should not be used.

I'll not debate you on the merits of publishers using CP software. I just wanted to point out that the SecuROM stuff does nothing intrusive or damaging to the PC. This alert seems more inflammatory than helpful.

Obsidian and Atari just needs to find an alternative tot he crap that is disk protection that hampers legitimate users.

Hamepers? It hasn't hampered my game. Don't spread myths. Thanks. :)

 

I say blame the thieves for publishers resorting to these protective measures.

SecuROM? Pft. Easy as pancake! You just have to look at the right place for the right thing and all annoyance shall end immediately.

The thieves can bypass SecuROM no problem. The thieves are not the ones being stopped from playing the game. Just because it hasn't bothered you does not mean it hasn't been a major pain in the ass for others.

If there's one thing I've learned on the internet about games is if it doesn't effect one eprsonally; it means it doens't effect others either. It's true! :)
