All I can add is irritated customers will do this. I don't think you necessarily need to look for an explanation on this. Hell, I've done it wrt Dawn of Wars less than stellar install experiences with Windows x64. It'd already been complained about enough, but I was irritated. So while it's possible it's a fanboy response, it could just as easily be a real response. If I had to guess, the few times I've had to troubleshoot a game in

[quote who="Nesrie" reply="31" id="2566827"] If you were actually paying attention to those laws and cases, you would know that even the ones thare are being passed are being shot down in court as unconstitutional. Target IS scanning IDs, not taking information off of them. If their scanner has the ability to read the birthdate off that card, it also has the ability to pull the other information whether or not they choose to store that information and use it.

[quote who="AgentNihilist" reply="28" id="2566587"] To reiterate - Unless you are selling something that can kill me (alchohol, ciggerrettes, Dynamite, perscriptions, guns etc) then the only thing that should matter is if I have money. Content that is considered offense is subjective, thus personal - If I don't like it I won't buy it. If the objection is parental then its that parents job to control for their and only their child.

[quote who="Wintersong" reply="4" id="2565425"]I don't think that Stardock is going to start regional restrictions like EA or Ubisoft (to name a few...). A different matter would be if Mr Chávez had some internet adresses banned/filtered for being... "risky", which is something I don't know. But hey, I just find fascinating that in Venezuela you cannot buy "violent" games. That leaves what? The Sims? Need for Speed? Tetris? Fifa/Madden/NBA XX? Man, Dragon Age and Mass Effect must be "u

Personally, my suggestion is to try disabling the system fan controls in the BIOS. They slow down the system fans automatically to make the system quieter, but they make my games crash occasionally. I won't guarantee that will help, but it sure did for me.

[quote who="irek1988" reply="69" id="2564258"]Dude read up. Get your facts straight. PS3 if diffrent story all together. You can use muse and keyboard to play some games or FragFX (some people say its better), use it as hd tv setup box, blue ray player and much more. Hell you can even emulate windows on it [/quote] Wow. Yes. I'll totally get my facts straight...if anyone in this thread actually agrees with you. Otherwise, you're completely clueless.

Think for myself eh. On this issue, you know, there just seem to be more important things in life than whether or not company policies dictate I show someone an ID. It's annoying, but it's hardly a bad policy. Too many people get by buying stuff they shouldn't be otherwise, because the tellers either don't know or don't care.

To me the Ubisoft DRM solution is better than what they've had before, because it makes it more likely PC releases will get DLC (BIG problem with Ubisoft on several games) and support future OSes (a problem Ubisoft used to have anyway.) I don't care if Impulse carries them or not, personally. If I wanted AC2 (I already have the 360 version) I'd find somewhere to buy it. If I was denied on Impulse I'd go somewhere else. Stardock shouldn't turn this into a religio

[quote who="GeneralEtrius" reply="80" id="2559418"]They say the story is really bad. Square Enix pushed for that part. Judging by Supcom2, the Japanese should really stay out of the Western RTS market and focus on making RPGs and they other games they specialize in. [/quote] Considering Square Enix owns Eidos (which was moderately terrible) they're already in the Western market. (I have no idea what Eidos had for RTSes mind you, but they probably had some.)

[quote who="thanas" reply="41" id="2556198"]Ain't no such thing as an console market. Everything is PC gaming. An xbox or PS3 is just an lavendered up desktop. I could convert one to run windows XP if I wanted to. Hell right now I am turning an old PIII dell and minimizing it so it can fit and boot inside an pelican case at the moment so it can control and operate an Underwater ROV.

[quote who="-RAISTLIN-" reply="60" id="2552280"] Quoting Splitshadow, reply 59 They should still auto-target something that is attacking them. If they don't, the micro needed for that game is insane. You could just always create long range units and micro them as to aggravate your opponent. no, they shouldn't and they never did in the first one either. imagine how annoying it would be if every time your units were attacked they would go blundering
