Let me start by saying that I agree with everything that has been said here... I can not express enough that limiting installs is Bull shit.

That being said... You can install the game 5 times before lockdown. Ive had to re install my games once maybe twice in the last year. So at my current reboot rate by the time Ive reached my 5 install limit it will be 3 years or so down the road and the game will be going for what 20-30 dollars...

I understand that as a gamer we need to take a stand against things like this (that dont prevent internet piracy anyways)... but Im not going to let this fact stop me from enjoying what should be a kick ass game. Isnt there other ways to stand against this without having to boycott the game.

If I have to spend another $20 in a few years for the 100's of hours I will have put into the game (guessing by how much time Ive play'd red aleart 1 and 2) by then its well worth it. I also will admit I dont use cracks and use an older computer to do all music downloads so I rarely Need to reboot my computer.
