Goodbye Pirates; Hello Games for Windows Live - briefly
(hx) 04:22 PM CET - Mar,24 2009 - Post a comment / read (6)
Microsoft sent out a press release letting everyone know that Games for Windows Live is receiving an update aimed at deterring piracy and increasing the awesomeness of microtransactions in PC games: What's dubbed as "zero-day piracy protection" works alongside server-side authentication to help prevent piracy before a game's release date and protect publishers by requiring online authentication to play any online multiplayer modes. The upgrade will also include an all-new Marketplace API allowing developers to create unique in-game stores for the sale of additional game content. Finally, 'Roaming' allows Games For Windows users to save their personal settings and gain access to these from any compatible and connected Windows PC.

So a entirely superfluous application that causes more harm than good is set to get even more deeply entrenched burrowing deeper into software. What Joy.

Reloaded and Razor are going to kick their butts once again. The day that piracy stops, Hardware makers including M$, ATI, Nvidia, Intel, can shove their new shiny toys up their butts!

This windows LIVE thing is already killing the legal customer base, more and more honest people are getting sick of this constant internet activity while they only want to play again (without LIVE bloat and system impact) and once again the pirate groups will get rid of this junk, and once again the illegal gamers will play without all that hassle and lowlevel system crap.
