Even if I was interested in Anno 2070, a DRM like this is reason enough not to buy it. I buy games to own them, not to rent them until I've upgraded my PC a few times.

It's equally bad, but the game may just be good enough to outweigh even that huge negative...

I don't think this was necessary - many people want to buy a 3DS, but are waiting until the titles arrive that they want to play on it - like Paper Mario :)

It's not about sensibilities. It's about not dropping to his level.

It's a shame - he should have been captured, prosecuted and sentenced. Not executed without trial. That's not justice.

2 ways:
1. complain about it on the bioware forums, explaining the parts you're not happy with
2. give the game honest ratings on game sites, which will be lower than people expect from Bioware games. (6/10 or 7/10 instead of 9/10 or 10/10)

It's not a bad game, but Bioware can and should do better than this.

Isn't that great, an online forum ban causing you to lose access to your single-player game? >_>

I wonder how this works with your PC crashing and having to buy a new one. Will you now lose your Steam account if your PC dies, or if you upgrade your PC with a new processor?

Pre-order bonuses are stupid and only lead to angry players who miss out on them when feeling entitled to them - or are unable to find a participating retailer to get the bonuses.

Never mind those people who want to wait for the review before buying... >_>

They are - you can only reach level 50 while playing for free - so it's basically like an extended demo. You can play part of the game, and if you want more you will have to pay after all.

It's exaggerated, but still partly true, I think. I know how hard it is to put aside a new game until I've played through it at least once...

Is it really a problem with the disk, or could it be solved by splitting the disk into 2 or more partitions, each partition being less than 2TB in size?

With this, the people owning legit copies of the game will finally be able to play without the DRM pausing their games. ^_^

Without a manual it becomes harder to give proof of purchase when you run into DRM issues...

I lost a DVD-drive to Starforce, and I have lost activations for something as basic as changing a BIOS setting or upgrading my PC with new hardware - an activation limit is easily reached that way. I also have old games where the DRM no longer works because it's not compatible with a 64-bit OS, and I know people who lost hours of game progress because the DRM misread the disk and triggered a game-breaking mechanism.
Such things should not happen to people who have paid for the game.

And these new DRMs, kicking people out of their single-player game whenever their internet connection hiccups, that's not good customer service.

No, most of the people who complain are those who buy games legitimately and then have to put up with all kinds of DRM crap like running into activation limits and game-breaking bugs caused by the DRM.
Both have happened to many people.

Legitimate customers who pay for their games do not appreciate being treated like criminals by game publishers.

I missed mention of the 5970 in the conclusion. It is only $100,- more expensive than the 480, which makes it a serious competitor for people looking to buy a card in that price range.

yes, although not all parts of the benchmarks use equal amounts of tesselation. I set the tesselation to extreme on my radeon 5700 and did some testing with the tesselation toggle. The performance penalty for enabling extreme tesselation varied from 5% to 60%, with it being about 20-30% for the majority of the benchmark. Which isn't bad, really, considering the visual effects...

I don't think they'd risk putting in any specific optimisations that would give bad reputation if they came out.

But I do wonder what they used for the physics on those flags - that could be PhysX, rather than a DirectCompute or OpenCL alternative.

Mario, Metroid and Zelda by themselves are already more than worth purchasing a Wii for - and not just for Nostalgia, but because they're great games as well.

There has also been a lot of crap released for the Wii by publishers seeking to make a quick buck - but avoiding those it just a matter of reading the reviews.

There are enough hardcore games on the Wii - some of the best games are Wii games, but people who don't bother to look past the graphics never seem to realise that.
