So here I am with a legal copy of the game, and downloading a crack for it so I can use it!
Just an exampe of innocent poeple, being burnt by DRM (And this is not the only example I have) - then 'They' wonder why we (consumers) are resistant to it... (DRM)
I've run into the exact same situation. When I contacted tech support for the company, they're the ones that actually told me to download a crack.
