I went to pre order Red Alert 3 the other day, the $120 nzd collectors edition. I was typing in my credit card when it clicked - wait... EA... DRM. I did a Google, found out it uses a relaxed version of the Spore DRM (5 installs), and killed the order. My cofounder said to buy the game and use a pirated version, but I refuse to support this crap, and that's with the sequel to my favourite game of all time. They are nuts if they don't think this happens. What has the world come to when the pirated version is the version that does not install spyware?
