^ It's worth noting that the worst of SecuROMs latest DRM maneuvering is still included as part of MEPC's so-called "anti-piracy" software - more like "anti-consumer rights" if you ask me. Do not be fooled into thinking that they are doing you any favors by dropping the 10-day online reauthentication requirement. Purchase this game, and you are still limited to 3, and only 3, total installations before you have to call EA's support line. And you can forget about dusting off and playing that game in the future when EA finally drops all support for the franchise (and they will, just look at BF2).

Verdict:

In its current form, I am decidedly uninterested in this game.
