this is true, look at protection over time, how invasive it has been, and still is, becoming.. if noone raises a complaint, noone even makes a noise about it, how far will things go? must you have to register your credit card to teh game, and make sure your constantly online so that a server can monitor that you are who you say your are and are allowed to be playing the game? pirates will find away around this, but its the people that buy shit are the ones going to get fucked... speaking out so that publishers know that we wont take their shit is the only way to stop or atleast slow the insanity.

its funny how people become hypocritical when it comes to something they like. so because they like the game, its fine to put insane protection schemes, but if its a game they dont care about they will argue how copy protection will never stop piracy.
make up your minds.

Oblivion had no protections but was one of the most sold games in the history. The anti-pirate most efficient system is the quality of the game.

It's the idiots cycle really.
If a game looks like shit and they can run it, they bash the game and call the developers iditos.
If the game looks great and they can't run it, they bitch about the company not supporting old hardware and call it unoptimized.
If a great game comes out, but comes with a protection they don't like, they use any excuse they can find to pirate the game.
You can't ever please them.

afaik it's the normal (non-censored) bioshock in regions where the regular version is censored, such as germany (most of the blood gone, no wound decals, and so on).
i wonder if the german version will have the same activation protection.. if i'm not mistaken it's a rather heavy violation of the consumer rights here.

in the end i am sure this will hurt sales / reputation instead of forcing ppl to buy it .
look how many pre ordered it without really knowing how good it would be , or even knowing it would have a tough protection , this could have been and might still be a top seller PC game , warez guys just wait till its cracked , even if many are impatient , and the ones who bought it are really fed up how rediculous the protection is , i also agree if no one stands up to this , it will end up like somene above me said with 24/7 connecting to the internet while playing the game , locked to your hardware and personal chip ID .

What's wrong with that children posting fakes here and there... Lack of parent's love?..
Fake, obviously. We can't just "Install" and "Play!!!" (oh god, why only three exclamation marks?) - the game won't complete installation process without entering proper key.

Don't worry, you don't. They are virtually identical. DX10 is a POS, or we won't see any benefit from it in years. Certainly the worst DirectX API in history. |

No differences but DX10 is faster... and maybe some patches create differences in future...

I'd like to see those benchmarks, as BioShock runs absolutely smooth on my shit old rig in DX9. |

That is totally different. Company of Heroes was DX9 only from the get-go, while DX10-support was patched in later. BioShock is DX10 native, in addition to supporting DX9. Trust me, there will be no such patches. |

60m Bioshock-Vitality PCDVD + crack [040/146] - "bioshock-vtlty.r38". Why do they post that shit to usenet when its fake?

bioshock is dx9-to-dx10-in-10-minutes-for-the-sake-of-having-dx10-as-a-selling-point nothing more. coh patch was specifically coded to be dx10 from the get go, hence the more details and far better quality.

Why dont people realise that crappy torrent/usenet releases are always FAKE 99% of the time?
You will KNOW when it is out for real, believe me.

obviously they think they have a crap game that will not sell enough, so they had to put shit in it to ensure it sells atleast a few copies.
But new Xbox 360 Version is out, how nice
