Command & Conquer - Red Alert 3, better as warez version

Post by **bad_brain** » 02 Nov 2008, 13:56

seen a test of CC Red Alert 3, the game itself seems to be real nice (now with japanese troops, they have special schoolgirl-units

), BUT there is one thing that will definitely keep me away from buying it: SecuROM protection...the good old Sony rootkit.
cracked versions of course don't have this "feature" anymore....so anyone which is at least a little interested in his privacy and wants to decide WHAT is installed on his system is almost forced to go illegal...

I tried it, not as fun as expected

it's like playing with toys, really boring graphics, and odd units. And the Japanese girl sucks! and not in the way I want her to

well, the game itself is surely a matter of taste, but securom and limited installs is just ridiculous....it's like "we sell you this game but protected it this way because you are a criminal anyway".
stuff like plays into the hands of software piracy, seems they are really too stupid to understand....I mean, you give them (a lot of) money and they put a rootkit on your system, and you can only avoid this by using the cracked version....

Arrrrrrrr matey, thats why I will never buy any sony games with that SecuROM crap. Its like they want to push away customers by putting that shit in their games.

I was going to buy it this week, but I suppose I'll just download it instead...

We like to use the term "try it out" around here ... "downloading" stuff like that, is "illegal"
