@ pwnzord "if ur game iz gud dey wil buy it" I stopped reading there. Insulting people is a good way to win an argument. I’m the kind of person who enjoys playing games. Not arguing about how hard they are to install, and boycotting games because they utilize DRM. If I’m looking forward to a game, I buy it, and then suffer through whatever flaming hoops I have to jump through. I frankly don’t care whether Spore 2 features DRM or not, it’s not going to change the fact that I’ll just end up pirating it like the first one, enjoying it for about 10 minutes, realizing that it isn't all that great, then uninstalling it. If I know for a fact that I’m most likely going to enjoy the game, I buy it. End of story. No forum posts about boycotting the game because it has a limited amount of installs, nothing. Sadly, video gaming isn’t about having fun anymore. It’s more about complaining about how Bethesda apparently ruined the series because they made the game mainstream and fun, rather than actually playing games.

I'm looking forward to TOR and TES5, but I'd much rather see something completely from left field.

Take a look at a game like "Fallout 3." The game sold 4.7 million copies in the first week, and it doesn't even have a CD key. You can play the game without a CD by just launching the game from the .exe rather than the launcher. DRM isn't solving anything when your game absolutely sucks. The truth is, if your game sucks, your not going to make money off it. If your games good, people are going to buy it. No amount of DRM will increase the revenue of a crappy game.
