It's seems like it's going to be true...
The DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT protection system will be featured within FIFA 09.
According to this source the new FIFA will include the same copy protection system as EA used for Spore. So what does this exactly mean? It means, that you will have to register your game online before you can play and that you will only be able to install the game 3 times. After these three installations you'll have to call a EA-hotline with costs to unlock your game for new installations. During the installation a DRM software installes itself which can't be deleted from your hard-disk anymore (even if you try to remove FIFA 09). Many angry Spore gamers suspected this also to be some sort of malware, so beware...
But this topic is going to be even more severe for the complete editing scene...
Remember how often you've installed FIFA 08 or 07? I did it about 9 or 10 times, also because of all the patches or mods that require a fresh installation...
But how will you be able to install all the great patches which make the game worth playin if you're only allowed to install the game three times?
This will make it so dangerous to install new things for your FIFA and I really don't know how we should cope with this.
