Spore: Most Pirated Game Ever Thanks to DRM
Posted in Games, News, Technology with tags Bittorrent, DRM, EA, pc games, Spore on September 14, 2008 by nunetherlandsSpore has been downloaded more than 500,000 times on BitTorrent and Other Torrents, and this number is increasing rapidly. Most critics agree that Spore is a great game. However, the users aren’t too happy with the absurd DRM restrictions that come with the game. EA decided that people who buy a legitimate copy of the game, are only allowed to install it three times. The idea behind DRM is that it will stop people from pirating the game, but in reality, it often has the opposite effect. As Forbes points out, many commenters on various BitTorrent sites now legitimize downloading this game because the official copies include some heavy and intrusive DRM.
