I think it's more a case of torrent heads not being prone to playing this sort of game. However, a few Matrix games (and a surprisingly large number of HPS titles) exist on torrent sites.

Hi all,
ORIGINAL: Terminus

I think it's more a case of torrent heads not being prone to playing this sort of game. However, a few Matrix games (and a surprisingly large number of HPS titles) exist on torrent sites.

I seriously doubt that any of those games there can be used with Matrix patches/updates (i.e. the users of such hacked games can't update their versions)... [;)]

Correct, for activation purposes. Also, some publishers (like Ubisoft[:@]) layer their own DRMs on top of Steam, so everything just goes out of the window there.

The last game I bought was WitP:AE. [:D]

Hi all,
ORIGINAL: Terminus

Diablo III has landed. It's Diablo II with prettier graphics...

How do you like it after 1+ days Kristian?

Did it fulfill expectations 8IIRC it was 10+ years in development)?

I expected a reskinned Diablo II, which is what it is. The DRM fiasco takes a lot from it; I'm currently giving it 70%, instead of the 80-85% it could have earned.

Can I come out as a Beaufighter Fanboy? I love it, especially as a low-level naval attack aircraft and ESPECIALLY flown by Australians. Come get some, Johnny Jap!

...must be legit...hardly any grammar errors...

"My name is Yasuji Yagi, a merchant in Japan. I have recently been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer, which has defiled all medical treatment. Expert diagnosis has shown that I have few months to live.

The intention of this email is to employ the expertise of a business entrepreneur, who can identify a viable investment and guarantee reasonable returns on my wealth. This is to secure a future for my 4 years old son who lost his mother during birth. I cannot rely on his closest relatives any more, as they did not show responsible behaviour two years ago when I entrusted half of my wealth to them to invest on his behalf. They thought I wouldnʼt survive the operation and then used the money for their personal needs.
The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of USD$60 Million dollars. I will want you to help me collect this deposit .


To prevent any more mishaps, my attorney will act as a check, monitoring every aspect of the investment. Funds should be split in half and distributed to charity organisation and the other half, as investment for my son.


If this interests you, please reach me on this email address yasujiyagi(at)aim.com to discuss terms and compensation.

Kind regard
