DRM needs a scraping

First it doesnt help anyone...

It doesnt help creaters of the game because they gotta think of some way to come up with a way to stop hackers...

Which costs corporate dollars... and yet hackers are still gonna crack which costs corporate dollars....

Doesnt make sense to me...

And on top of all that the paying customer gets treated like the theif...

I dont care about tray and play... i care about being able to play my game on any computer in my house that i have... if of course it can handle it...

If the gaming industry wants to do anything about piracy then they need to take a step back...

even consoles have this problem but no one does anything about it there... why should they treat the computer as a entirely different beast...

I think EA is taking the DRM little too far. Having to activate the software when you want to play. Plus when you update the software in question. I can see having to activate the software when you first install it.

Least make sure you got the option. To activate the software over the internet or phone. After the initial install activation should not be needed anymore. What about the kids parents that no longer married and broke up. The kid has a laptop which he/she has to take with them. When staying at the parent house in question.

Not all parents will have internet access.
