I own the Steam version and it works great. Now I can play in offline mode if I want.

Great work Skidrow.

Ya Skidrow is great. Have many titles cracked by them. Ubisoft is a bunch of morons but then again, most PC game makers are idiots.

Ahhh!

More work for the copy protection team, that means, another $5 more to pay for all upcoming Ubisoft crap.

No thanks.
