EA Fails To Disclose SecuROM in Dragon Age II

[Mr.Game]

Just as the title says, "EA Fails To Disclose SecuROM in Dragonage II"


Here is the link since it's a little long to quote:

And in-case you don't know what SecuROM is, here's a link for that too:

My understanding was that SecuRom was being installed without users knowledge for anyone who bought the brick and mortar copy; if you bought Dragons Age II via Steam it uses the typical Steam DRM.

I haven't seen the physical copy of the game. If it really makes no mention of the SecuRom on the packaging, it'll add to the internet rage. It sounds like EA is saying, it only installs to verify your copy, then (supposedly) it uninstalls after activation? Still sounds like a cow-pie way to do things.

Agreed fully with this statement!


Ohh, and here's another instance of EA causing "internet rage":

I thought there was only a disc-check activation along with annual internet checks as well??? What the Hell EA, stop screwing us over!!

I had bazillions of problems when I got spore with my old computer. DA2, despite being made in my hometown by my favorite company, will have to wait.
