Car idea... like the ONSTAR TV ad in which an operator sends the KILL command to a stolen SUV... imagine a hack or error which sends out the KILL code to all of their cars... ouch.
Anyways... yeah, this is another reason why PC gaming is suffering. Punish the people who buy your software, really good. Its why I don't buy EA games with their SecuROM and UBI can now stick it too!
Great job... so if UBI sells their company or goes out of business, the people who spent $40~50 per copy of their games have... NOTHING!
Game requiring server access is BS, unstable internet connections will play havoc with some players... and they pay for this?
Basic anti-piracy protection is all they should bother with (CD-key), it'll stop the basic user from giving copies to their friends.
THERE is NEVER a game out there that doesn't GET cracked within 1~3 days in the wild (before or at the release date). Mirrors edge, BioShock, etc... all of them, cracked.
Meanwhile... I don't buy their games. I don't want their root-kit secuROM software on my computer or the install limitations. So, when Mirrors Edge is about $10 or less, I may buy it... then get a cracked version to actually use.
I have bought my games, I have my own keys... And if I played nice and had BioShock on my desktop, I'd have already be screwed with its DRM.
People should demand refunds everytime this happens.
PC gaming is in trouble, DRM isn't helping. The pirates are not helping. And Microsoft for sure isn't helping? Count the number of MS games for Xbox and see how many are also for Windows?
