    Considering the rave reviews ME2 is currently getting, I am interested in going back and playing ME1 for the PC so I can refresh myself on the happenings of the first and have a save game to import.  However, I was just wondering if the game still had that busted ass DRM which only allowed for three activations.  Is this still in place or have they patched it out?

    The physical PC-DVD copy has SecuROM as far as I can tell. I purchased ME1 + ME2 off of Steam. NO DRM from Steam.
     
    Hope that helps.

    Alright, thanks.  I always perfer getting a physical copy when I can, but in this situation with the DRM they have on it, its not like I actually own the game anyways.  I guess I'll probably just end up grabbing it off Steam.
