I got Spore today...sort of.

I came home today with Spore only to find out that this game has SecuRom on it and only allows 3 ONLY 3 installs. ARE YOU FUCKIN' SHITTIN' ME, EA? This game looks great, but I absolutely refuse to play a game where I have to re-authenticate my copy every 10 fucking days with 3 installs. This pisses me off more than blatant in-game advertising. Is this the new trend now? Punishing people for buying your game? and it's not like pirates are having trouble. If anything, It is only encouraging people to pirate the game as it seems like a breeze to play with the cracked DRM.
If this is the kind of treatment PC games are gonna be getting from now on, You can consider PC gaming dead, because this is insane. I realize EA is trying to protect their game, but in the end, they are only hurting themselves and their fans. It's needless to say now, but I am definitely returning this game first thing in the morning. Until EA can solve its little problem, I will not be buying this game, and I urge others to do the same.
