The End of PC GAMING!

no 1 here gets *IT* their aim is to make PC copy protection irritating enough, that we only buy the console versions. With the advent of the xbox360 and ps3, this protection will be used on every new game released, and force PC gamers to an unforgiving choice; deal with horrible copy protection software that can and will currupt your raid array (happened to me and MANY others, wish i could sue, but agreed not to in the EULA..so says my lawyer) render your dvd/cd burner permenently broken, happened to people on the forums, or make your pc unusable, on starforce's own forums. This software is WORSE than the sony DRM software. at least that crap only broke things software-wise...this thing will damage your hardware so you can never use it agian, and you agreed to let it do so by clicking, Next, to install.

irritation doesn't cover it, this software has prompted me to return 2 titles i received for xmas, prince of persia the two thrones, peter jackson's king kong, and file complaints with the BBB, suits with my attorney, and letters to the CA, and NY attorney general's...

This is the final bullet, they REALLY _HATE_ pc gamers, and they're pulling out the final straw to show you just how much. I suggest buying an xbox 360, no copy protection, no breaking the console, and if something does go wrong you can return it/replace it without having to make a huge scene (eb games wouldn't take back the faulty software otherwise). if SF3 actually worked the way it was suppose too, or if the sfclean utility actually removed what it said it does...that would be one thing...as it stands, i'm selling my 7800 card, using onboard video, and the proceeds are going towards my xbox360. Welcome to the end of PC Games. If Nvidia or ATI card about the enthusiat market and the millions who spend 500-800 per card every 6 months...NOW would be the time to help us out, otherwise, say goodbye to it. And start the REAL fight to get into the consoles.
