Check this shit out. Some dude said something bad on a forum about Dragon Age 2. BioWare respond by negating his access to his own copy of Dragon Age 2, a single player game he recently bought for 50 euros.
I cannot believe that shit even flys in a court of law. It's somewhat understandable in online games where your behaviour can affect other people around you, but to be banned from a single player game only you will play, alone, in your own time offline and have purchased with your own money, for a negative comment on a forum, wow. It's pathetic in my opinion.
Your guys thoughts on this ? Imagine being banned from Starcraft 2 OFFLINE mode for a negative comment about it on wow forums. Shit's crazy imo.
edit: I was under the impression after reading the link that he couldn't install his game because it requires an online activation to do so and he's banned from online. However, after reading some of these replies here, I may have read into it wrong; I'm actually a little confused what exactly the guy can and can't do right now and admittedly might have jumped to some conclusions, I'm not even too sure at this point, but nevermind. Be that as it may, it's still an interesting circumstance that the guy is in, and leads to wonders where we might be with such features in the future.
Mod Edit: Please note that this post is misinformed, slightly. You can still play single-player offline without logging in to your EA account. - Simca
