Wow, this quote from that MTV blog nearly had me choking on my Toast:
"The bottom line shared to me by EA spokesperson Mariam Sughayer today is that “EA has no intentions — nor will they ever — to make it easier for people to play a pirated game… than to play an authentic retail copy.”
How they can even have to brass widgets to say that is beyond me. If they honestly think that, then someone needs to explain to them that they have failed, lets take Spore as an example, it is already easier to download the cracked version, and you get less hassle than the retail version apparantly.
It's a good sign that EA are listening, but they have also shown that us customers do not have to put up with this, we can make EA take notice via direct action. They need to make sure they really address this issue for future titles including RA3 and uping the activations limit to 5 simply does not cut it.
It's a start EA, but you need to do a lot more to satisfy those who are angered by this situation.
