I really think its about time strict restrictions were put on not only PC games but console games to something that soo much security you would have to waste years to try and crack it and commit piracy.

If I was a company losing money due to all this crap that goes on I would slap on tons of security or download only with an access key or something and those that complain are or would be in my eyes the pirates.

Wow! You're a genius! Us developers had never considered making it hard for people to copy games! We're all going to try that right now. I'd suggest you now either get yourself a job in the industry, set yourself up as a security consultant or maybe try sorting out the problems in the Middle East. That should all be well within your abilities.

Might it not be wise to remove the source link? Otherwise it could be construed you're abetting piracy.

You make a good point. However, firstly it's purportedly a demo (and free).

Secondly, I don't actually think it's the real McCoy.

I'll look into it more closely. As I said, though, a good point.

Seriously what do you think they have now, slight resrtictions,

like advising if your copy of the disc doesnt have the micky mouse hologram then please dont use it!
or
every copy of the game having a password on installation thats the same password for every single copy of the game and that password is password but if you click skip it will!
