Re: BS

said by skuv :

And they have stated that you can play without the disc being required in the drive.
So EA made one step forward, and took 5 steps back. Well done.

said by skuv :

And patches are not released as often for games as the DSLR article says, so that part is pretty ridiculous in saying that it's not much of a tradeoff.
I can play the console versions w/o worrying about where I may have played this game or being locked out from patches.

Personally, the tradeoff for playing old games again on a mouse/keyboard isn't worth the technical hassles the publisher wants to put me through.
