No DRM For The Sims 3

Posted on 29. Mar, 2009 by Mr. Sims in News, The Sims 3

If you remember just about a month ago their were talks of DRM protection on The Sims 3, which outraged a ton of Sims fans including myself. They were planing something similar to the game Spore, and let’s just say that they took ALOT of heat by gamers for it.

Well, EA’s Rod Humble said, in a post at the official Sims 3 site, that they are going to use a traditional copy protection meathod:

We have heard your requests over the past months and here is our plan for The Sims 3 – The game will have disc-based copy protection there is a Serial Code just like The Sims 2. To play the game there will not be any online authentication needed.

We feel like this is a good, time-proven solution that makes it easy for you to play the game without DRM methods that feel overly invasive or leave you concerned about authorization server access in the distant future.

Great news for all us Sims fans, thanks EA!!!
