Well so far I don't think anyone has come out with an anti-piracy measure that is actually worse than SecuROM (feel free to correct me if someone has...)

But yes, we are definitely in a time where the online and gaming world is defined by heavy piracy... However, that doesn't seem to be stopping console games from selling retardedly well.
This is going in my sig. :)

Remember Ubisofts DRM? The whole need to be online at all times and limited installs? That shit could become the norm.

At least it doesn't install a rootkit, or broken drivers....

Yeah, it just kicked you out of your game without saving if your Internet connection had a hiccup.

I couldn't really get into Blur.  Or ModNation.

I think I've become a bit too old and crusty for arcade racers, sadly.  I think I just got blue shell'd around the last bend of the race too many times.

Downloading Earth 2150: The Moon Project (See also: Official Site)

It sounded pretty fun by the description given on teamliquid, so I thought I'd check it out. Too bad I haven't had much free time lately, and the free time I have had has generally been taken up by anime.

I'm really conflicted about that game. I enjoyed TvC, but it got boring fast for me. I'm hoping MvC3 doesn't do the same (I intended to buy it when I got a PS3) and I hear it's a lot more like TvC now. Still looks really fun tho, and Dante looks goddamn awesome.

Beat the Witcher, cannot wait for Witcher 2. It was definitely one of my favorite RPGs, despite being buggy, and 2 looks like an all around improvement.

Also CS:S is all fucked up for me. When I open a server browser it shows me a list of full servers, then when I click one it connects me to said server, but it is empty and it asks me to hit F3 to reconnect to a different server. Then I do so and I switch to another empty server under a different title.

Oh, and a quick question, would anyone recommend Diablo 2 if they could only play offline.

I've played far more D2 offline than online, to be totally honest. Though to be fair I prefer plying Hell Unleashed for offline, simply because it's a challenge just to get past andariel, where D2 is not much of a challenge till hell.

Haha, yeah, that was pretty cool. We should do that again sometime. Maybe we could get a game of Hell Unleashed going... That game basically REQUIRES you to have a good team going. And the game is so fucking hard that you don't need to play a bunch before you get to the "good parts", lol. Even fighting blood raven is kinda hard to solo... (unless you are a barbarian with bash... then you just keep her cornered, bash the hell out of her, and keep your life up.

I've run into this in TF2 also - I believe it's a server plugin that redirects players joining one server to another one, in order to keep more servers on x or y gaming network alive and active, I remember the Lotusclan servers on TF2 doing this constantly, so I just ended up blacklisting them all.

Yeah, it stopped, and I'm pretty sure that was what was going on. Rather dickish trick.
