Yeah, keep forcing SecureRom on your consumer base you ignorant fucks. I would've bought 4 games from you in the next two months alone. Because of SecureRom, I'll be buying zero.

Friggin sweet.

I'd love to see a direct correlation to peeps not buying due to DRM, though.

EA has also started banning people from there forums if the complain about securom. Which means that they get banned from their games also since the forum name is tied to your sign-in name.

Well heeeeeeil Hitler!

I'm sure there is a direct connection, but they will never ever admit to that.

They'll leave the PC market and focus on consoles before they ever admit SecureROM is bad and remove it (without replacing it with something equally fucked up, I mean)

Due to severe backlash (duh?), EA has "corrected" its statement about forum/game bans.

I hope they burn.  Can't believe the article mentions nothing about their DRM bullshit.  & they called Spore a "success."

I'm not surprised the article doesn't mean the DRM stuff at all. It just proves what I've been telling you guys for quite some time: The articles you read and reports you see or hear are generally exactly what they were told via a fax or email. Reporters do not investigate things anymore. They're nothing more than a middle man. EA couldn't just written that article themselves and then emailed it to consumers.
