Bioshock's DRM wasn't an issue at all. The only valid complaints about DRM as far as I can tell have to do with that awful StarForce gash, which has thankfully fallen out of favour with publishers. http://webnv.net/articles/assassins-creed-is-finally-out-for-the-pc#c5265 Sun, 13 Apr 2008 17:23:54 PDT Nick Villescas [ author ] 5265@http://webnv.net/articles/assassins-creed-is-finally-out-for-the-pc#comments Well, it was the same situation for me with Bioshock. The horrors I heard about its DRM were a non-issue when I got the game through Steam.<br /> <br /> Yes, I would much rather have the boxed/phyical copy of the game, but I like the convenience of buying, playing, and avoiding these DRM issues through Steam.

If it's possible to buy a physical copy I will almost always go for that. It's a bit old fashioned of me, but boxes are pretty shut up.<br /> <br /> I suppose if they don't bother to fix the issue I won't have a choice, though. :(

So that's awesome. It's reassuring to hear that you haven't had that problem, at least, so maybe it's not as widespread as I thought.<br /> <br /> I'll probably pick this up when (if) a patch rolls around, in any case.
