Hey, the only game I sued over (and won!)
I wouldn't touch that game after the DRM in that garbage screwed with my GPU (9800GTX+ suddenly no longer to utilize 16:9 resolutions) and my DVD drive writing capability was wiped out, both immediately after installing the Spore Creature Creator.
EA got smacked really hard in that courtroom. They settled immediately.
- roughly 3y agoI’d forgotten about the DRM! I think that was another significant contributor to the game’s lack of commercial success - it came with this horribly onerous & invasive DRM system/root kit (that affected game performance too, as I recall), and was naturally cracked and available unencumbered online day 2. I know I’m not the only one who would’ve paid money for it without that, but as was, I downloaded it.
