With PC gaming it's different. Most PC's will always have an internet connection because they're not portable.
never heard of laptops?
different my arse
You're going to sit there and claim that laptops make up a bigger number than what's left from "most" then?
Well I tell you what here's your challenge. Name somebody on here who uses a laptop to game on and I'll name someone who uses a PC. Ready, set, go:
Eatthis
Your turn
who mentioned majority?
drm is spawn of satan and you know it (+ it doesnt even work for the people who can be bothered).
would drm be acceptable to you on a psp or ds?
alot of laptops are useable for alot of games even the normal laptops can be acceptable if the game isnt a pisspoor console port.
You took the stance of majority when you disagreed with my statement.
Other than the fact it can fail at the task it was designed for it's almost unnoticeable. The vast majority of PC gamers are online 100% of the time making DRM is a non issue
Give me a time other than not having an internet connection that DRM has affected your life.
People don't game with laptops sat on the sofa unless it is a game not requiring any reaction to it. They usually end up on a desk with a mouse and/or keyboard plugged into them, sometimes even a monitor, essentially turning them back into a PC. Chances are they are in range of a ISP as well at the time. Or they have a mobile phone that can tether fast enough to allow authentication for DRM
I don't agree with DRM but you're blowing it out of proportion
no i didnt take the majority stance at all fella
when i use laptop i tend to use a board for 2 reasons
1 the fans are almost always on the bottom so it stops it from cooking itself
2 i use a mouse with it
is your internet 100% reliable? mine never has been EVER wherever iv lived and whoever the isp has been. when playing a single player game i dont find it acceptable to suddenly get booted off because im not not on the fuking internet at the time
i do use my phone to tether but signal is a fuking joke in this country
do you ever play any multiplayer games or use the internet on your phone?
does it ever boot you off because signals gone?
nothing you can do about it when your using the net etc but itd boil yer pisss if it did that when you were playing solitare or whatever :bad-words:
