Nearly everyone has said that this game lacks replayability. So restrictions on installs would surely be irrelevant. I consider from the comments I've received that this is a £10 payment for about 10 hours of fun, then it's gone. I doubt the DRM will ever rear its ugly head. I am thinking of it as a trip to the cinema, for a 10 hour film. You don't complain that you can't return to a cinema do you?

... I don't go to the movies. Mostly because most of the stuff gets here like four months after the DVD comes out in the US. :P

And replayability isn't an issue to me. Just because I clear it once doesn't mean I won't play it ever again. I'm actually surprised people here are complaining about that...

So it sounds like the DRM will not be a problem for you.

... Except it is.

Limited activations? No thanks. I don't mind having to go online to activate the game if necessary. I DO mind only having a limited amount.

But... You'll never exceed that amount. It's apparently not that type of game.

I'm not an action-game fan, nor am I a batman fan.

But this game was. awesome. Recommend on console though, not pc.

I didn't even bother reading all the other replies in here - I just rushed to reply "YES! BUY IT!"
One of the greatest superhero games ever, and if you're even remotely into Batman you NEED it!

I'm guessing this is because you would recommend playing it with a controller. This shouldn't be taken into consideration because you can get any controller you want to play games on PCs with. And it's excellent on PC - you get excellent resolution options, 3D (which is absolutely amazing with this game), and advanced PhysX effects (as opposed to consoles). And I have a decent computer, but it runs fantastically.

For some people it's the principle of the thing, obviously their DRM crosses the line for him. QED. There's really nothing more to it.

Try explaining that to him.

I don't mind most kinds of DRM. I just have a huge problem with limited activations. I don't mind having to activate a game, it ensures that I'm a legit customer - and I have no problem with that. But there's absolutely NO REASON for me to only be able to activate it very few times. That's it.

I think I'll spend the money on other stuff. Like the Sam and Max seasons....

I'd actually argue that any activation is limited, really. Eventually the servers will be gone or taken down and you'll be left without a game. I have games that I play that are very old, that won't be possible with many games from this current generation and I'm sad for it. My daughter will find it impossible to replay her favorites from her childhood, unlike me, I've been able to enjoy them all over again.

At any rate, you get huge props from me for knowing what your "I'm not gonna take it anymore," limit is and sticking to it.
