Damn, I won't be buying GTR afterall
Because they are putting Starforce protection drivers in it. Even the
freaking demo has Starforce in it. I didn't buy HL2 because of Steam and I certainly won't buy anymore games with Starforce after buying Toca2. I classify Starforce as a Trojan. Look it up. |

Agreed, Steam sucks!! Just got HL2 yesterday. It IS very cool!! The over
rated multi-player part will never be used by me though. Multi is the LEAST important part of any game, IMO.

As much as I hate Steam it isnt nearly as bad after a few levels of HL2. Took me a few levels to get out my aggression over having to install steam in the first place. Id be more ****ed at myself if I didnt get HL2 because of steam. Starforce isnt nearly as offensive as Steam either. Mitch -- Remove "nospam." to reply. SuSE 9.2 Pro KDE 3.3.2a |

Never even noticed it on my system - it doesn't change anything or harm me or my PC and if it means that good developers get some hard earned cash then good for them. Dags |

Starforce is a hidden driver that can be found by looking in device manager and showing hidden devices. It has been reported to screw with Nero cdrom burning software, which I use. To put it bluntly - I'm just sick of these ****tards and their copy protection schemes and they can go **** themselves. |

I use > Nero. I also use Nero on my lone Win box. Version 6.6 Ultra. No issues on either CD or DVD burner with Starforce. What exactly is your issue? Mitch -- Remove "nospam." to reply.
