Nor do I see why I should have to petition any games company to give me another 3 or 5 or 9 or whatever activation points again to get said shut down game running again.
EA do you really have to use this type of disc protection. I play different online and offline games from many different companys and this is the first time I have come across this Securom item. Apart from seeing some blurb on the news < TV > yonks ago about sony useing it on their music discs. Come on EA rethink your options. This system had bad press to start with at its release and from what I can see of the wiki posts on it has had quite a bit of bad press since. Why associate bad press with what looks like will be a good game surely the two should not mix ?
