Bioshock demo also with Product Activation?

  • Follow


Is it true the Bioshock demo also has Product Activation?
This is like HL2 all over again and again and again in all details
HL2 demo also has STEAM INFECTION, so nobody can even play the goddamn
demo without becoming a STEAM SLAVE
Disgusting!
Now Bioshock with the same?
Bioshock demo with Product Activation? A demo with Product Activation!
Take2 is really being a copycat "killer"
Doing the same as Valve did with HL2 step by step.
I guess "crime" pays off.
I guess being ARROGANT, GREEDY, MONOPOLISTIC, DICTATOR, TYRANT in the
PC Game market pays well after all!

It seems with PC Games is the more you hit me the more I like you

OK, I realize I'm replying to a lunatic, but this is cctually an
interesting topic. 

IF the Bioshock demo has some kind of activation scheme, the reason is
so that the demo .EXE cannot be used to make a crack for the full
game. This was also true of Star Force game demos in the past.

Only on the Xbox360. The PC demo "should be out before the 21st"

pc games, if you do avoid/boycott those games that uses Steam-like copy 
protections, you'll be missing out on some truly great games.  Give them a 
chance for gameplay standpoint.
