StokedGamer.com gives a walk through of the installation and activation of Mass Effect on the PC. The game was then played without the internet connected to verify that it is possible to play that way. According to the article the the installation is easy, painless, and authentication occurs without any effort besides entering the product key. Due to the huge controversy that was made about SecuROM the author chose to write an article about this topic.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
or you can just install it then apply cd crack. Simple as that.
I was just about to post the fact that it was cracked in no time which now means those that steal it get a superior product to those that buy it (what an insane world we live in. I do not agree with stealing sofware so no I won't be pirating it. However I don't agree with all this DRM infested crap either so I won't be buying it either.
The only thing I can complain about is SecuROM. The spyware that demands that certain products not be running in the background when loading a game.
Otherwise I find it lovely. No DVD in drive even!
This may be a step towards a protection that doesn't hurt customers. That's a good thing.
