As you mentioned, SecurRom will only make it so a lot of potential buyers don't get the game. And also, even if there are pirate versions (there will be, that's a fact...) floating around, this is STILL the best-selling PC game ever. Don't they have enough money already?

exactly! their just money hungry/greedy, which is why i hate securom, no matter what EA does though, people out there will find away to beat them, and hack securom outa TS3, so theres no point in it  {lol}

Re: The Sims 3 Event - tv_freak - 19-07-2008 05:28 PM

i think securom actually increases the chance of piracy or will at least decrease their sales
people have found a way to download games with securom
so people who don't want securom or who have problems with it will either not buy the game or just download it

Thanks so much Bambi!

And yeh, one version of SecuROM was cracked in less than a day after it was released.
They are ONLY hurting honest customers.
EA will never run short of money, so I don't see why they have to have such an invasive DRM, which in the end is going to drive away long time loyal customers, and turn off potential new customers.
It's ridiculous.

im guessing that this is all part of EA's plan, they made 2.5 billion in the last year or so, and they hope to make 5 billion in 2012, so im guessin they're panicing because they mite not get that much by 2012, so they're tryin to get money from anywere (even if that means bringing in stupid DRM stuff)

Also, when I said 6 life stages, I wasn't including baby. So yes, altogether there are 7 life stages. Sorry for the confusion...I never really think of baby as a life stage, but I forgot that you all do. Wink

Furthermore, try to chill out a bit. Practice patience. Wink I'm trying my absolute best to upload as soon as possible, but you have to understand that I'm on a very tight/busy schedule and I don't always have access to a computer here in the hotel. So try not to get to stressed about it...I'll post when I can.

And thanks to those of you who have avoided fan sites upon my request! Even though only a few sites are here, I'm sure the word has spread by now and I don't want the surprise to be ruined. However, I know that it's not completely fair of me to ask you to wait so long, so if you're so impatient that you absolutely cannot wait for your dear ol' Bambi to post, then have at the sites. But all I ask is that you don't tell anyone from this site what you've learned. Don't ruin the surprise for others, basically. Wink

But please, try your best to wait! Trust me, it's better if you wait just a bit...it makes getting the info even more exciting!

Some bad news - the wait will be a bit longer. I was up late last night with the group, so I slept in rather late this morning. Sad I have to leave to catch my flight the second I post this, so I don't have time to write the full report. But I have a notebook that I can use on the plane to write it, so all I have to do is type it when I get home. So, unfortunately, you'll have to wait until Sunday morning for it. Sad

Until then, please try to avoid all other sites, if you can. If you absolutely cannot, just don't ruin the surprise for others, okay? Wink Also, feel free to discuss what you think I learned, or you can discuss the things I already told you last night.

To all that are waiting so patiently - THANK YOU! Smile I love you all!
To all that were waiting for info today - I'm SO sorry. Please forgive me.  :'(
To all that said thank you - you're completely welcome!

Talk to you soon!
Bambi

Thank you! Smile

So that's morning your time? So in the UK, that'd be about, well, mid-after some time? Just so I know I don't need to get up early! Big Grin
