[QUOTE="LTZH"]If it prevents just one pirate from taking ME free, then its fine with me...its not that big of a hassle.TheCrazed420
How is this not a big hassle? The legit buyer has to continuously prove to EA that he has bought the game, whereas the pirate will wait an extra couple of days until the game gets cracked again. And that cracked version will not need any of this BS.
Where is the hassle in that? It's going to be checking online in the back ground. The only hassle I'd see is if you have to physically dial up your connection.
You do know that 90% of the stuff you have installed on your PC already does this right? You have Adobe Reader. Nero Burning ROM, Microsoft Office, ah Windows XP/Vista, anything like that on your PC? Well in the background those aps are constantly checking for updates....
Plus I see this as being a huge bonus: "Mass Effect does not require the DVD to be in the drive in order to play, it is only for installation." That's from the first link.
