The computer (PC) community was up in arms after spore was launched, since of the way electronic arts choused to use DRM, in the shape of SecuROM, to limited the possibility of piracy or duplication. But the problem is a so many people deal with is that the game can only be a limited number installed of times before EA must be contacted to get the right the more installs.

The search fast online will show anybody who has the eyes to see that this limiting DRM has done tiny to limit the duplication of Spore, as duplicate versions were available even before the original game launch. It might just be that the incapacity of pirated prints to have access to Spore casts and other peoples’ formations has done more to induce public to get the game than the DRM Electronic Arts executed.

Another problem is related to what will happen when Electronic Arts cuts support for the game and gamers want to company contact to get the right to install again game. It seems that the repercussion, which add very bad reviews on Amazon and other websites that push user input, has influenced Electronic Arts to approve another design for the upcoming Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3.
