| CD! [read in] | |
| Posted By: -mortensenj <mortensenj@hotmail.com> | Date: 9/23/01 9:41 a.m. |
In Response To: DVD, ofcourse (DeAdLy_cOoKiE) I have 3 computers - 1 has a DVD drive, 1 a CDRW [no DVD support] and 1 50x CD drive [no DVD support]. I would prefer a release on CD BUT if it was released on DVD WITHOUT a CD check then that would be acceptable. But it would be impossible for me to play it on my computer [CDRW] if it were to have a CD check. But obviously you want to think about piracy. It's harder to pirate a DVD than several CD's. So how about an online system like Tribes 2 where you login each time you want to play online... you make an account for online play and use the CD key ONCE and then you never need the serial key again, you just login each time. This would make it impossible to SHARE CD keys. - This system is obviously no good if the MAIN focus is on single player but even Half-Life [which was designed for single player] was MORE popular online so you want a SECURE system. OVERALL: If there were 2 versions next to each other, one CD and one DVD, for the same price and NEITHER had a CD check then I would go for the CD version. This is because I like to back up my games [I have damaged Unreal Tournament beyond use because it had to be inserted EACH time I wanted to play]. -mortensenj | |
