Um... This game doesn't really even deserve the money to pay it. I didn't pay and I am happy I didn't. It has no replay value at all. Very annoying and boring because of that. Glad I never payed but indeed beat it fast. (Was I playing on hard? I forget.. It was stupid easy)

Bioshock is great but I always hate how it downloads "a patch" when it's installing when it's really just the exe for the game.

I think it was a horrible business decision to implement such DRM but regardless I still think the game is worth purchasing (especially at the price it is now), it has several flaws (including an extremely severe case of console-itis, A.K.A. dumbing down games for the wider console market) but it's still a great game.

I'm not too psyched about Bioshock 2 because I don't know how well 2K will be able to handle it, 2K is a really shitty company and Bioshock 2 is not even being handled by Irrational (now called 2K Boston or something).

Me too. I havent even bought it yet, but I will tonight.

Though I'm confused.
How can it "already be done" ?
When you install the thing, dont the files on the disc tell it to call home?
Or does it call home once and then get the latest instruction from the web site which says: "dont bother anymore" ?

EDIT: Nevermind.
I read the updated info. Guess I wont be buying anyway.

Nice. Bragging that you played it without paying for it. And you're the reason why these companies feel like they have to use asinine things like SecuROM. Way to go.
