This entire thread is the resualt of someone throwing their toys coz they can only install the game on their system 15 times. Who installs a game 15 times on the same system. And why does that "botch up" the game?

i don't get it either. i'm over the whole drm thing, it's gonna happen wether we like it or not. as for mucking up the game. i don't see how
Play games, not platforms
Get a console.
Get used to it.
Get a clue on the bad games and don't buy / pirate them!
Keep your PC.
Keep playing the (fewer) good games that come out on your PC.
Keep away from bad games and don't even pirate them!
Evolve.
Plan C
stop being such a ****ing idiot. get multiple platforms pc included and be happy.
telling someone to switch from their chosen platform is stupid and just as bad as elitism.
honestly. if you can go with multiple solutions, don't freaking limit yourself because you are too close minded to see the obvious benefits in that. expensive? yes worth it? you better know it

No you aren't since the pirate paid no licensing fee to the content provider to get you that cotent while the tv company has paid the legitimate provide a licensing fee.
I have installed some of my black isle games over 15 times over the years.The 15 limit is ok as a start, I still believe providing a revoke tool so the end user can manage it himself is a better option.
Hmm, I think you missed what I was trying to convey. Basically I was saying get multiple platforms.
I get the feeling that most people here that are 'bashing' consoles have spent veeeery little time with them.
As far as the money situation goes, well that is always a bugger. The situation however is that there IS a greater shift towards console gaming, and well you need to make a plan at some point to try get one. Otherwise get used to the status quo.
I have never been a platform elitist and I never will be. I just buy what I can and what makes the most sense at the time.
e.g. I have always had a PC and used to upgrade fanatically, then I saw the PS2 and fell in love with its titles. So I downgraded how I upgraded my PC and bought one.
Now I have 2 platforms. I then later saw the GameCube going cheap and bought one.
3 platforms. Then the Xbox 360 came out and I saved for it.
And so on.
Again I mention I DO feel for the PC platform, it sucks, seriously. This is not all Doom and Gloom, since there are certainly quality titles on console if you actually look, along with a slew of cruddy ones. And this controller excuse does not work with me.
Gah! I am sick of this (these) topics. All we ever do is repeat ourselves ad nauseum and no one ever really changes anyone's mind.

ok granted i was harsh in my reply. it just get's me so worked up. i'm lucky enough to own a proper pc and 2 consoles which gives me as a gamer so much choice, seeing people whine the whole time just get's me so worked up. yes not everyone will be lucky enough own 2 systems let alone 3. but honestly if you can it's the way to go. really you are spoiled for choice.

AHAHAHA @ Raven Gold I was busy reading your comments while eating my KFC meal and I managed to snort coke up my nose. You the person who has lost all grip on reality (Do you share your world with unicorns and rainbows?) and shows absolute paranoia that the casual gamer is going to stab you in your sleep for your "hardcore" games you just made my day.
I sir salute you for absolutely hilarious posts that show no regard for reality or facts.
