2kGames lies about Bioshock DRM
Bioshock has unacceptable DRM. If the publisher ever folds, or decides to stop supporting the authentication servers, the game will lock up and never legally work again. They promised they would eventually remove it. They have now admitted that they lied. The authentication system will be in place forever. They now claim that if they stop supporting Bioshock, they'll remove it. Riiight. They're going to stop supporting and making money on a game, but they'll spend a bit more to unlock it?
As is usually the case, if you pay for a legal copy of something with DRM, you get crippled functionality. If you download an illegal copy, you get full functionality.
