Internet activation?

[Necros]

So, we know from the official requirements that the game will require internet connection to activate the game. But it raises some questions.

1. What about those who don't have internet at home?
2. How is this going to work?
3. Can you play the game after reinstalling Windows?


It may be a "pain in the *ss" kinda thing, so I hope it'll work well...

4: Will it also be present in the Xbox 360 version?

let's hope there is a different option for bioshock other than internet activation... whatever that may be..

And it should be a simple click and check thing no dozen rows of numbers to put in or any of that.

ok why would you have a computer and not have internet, it like having ice-cream cone without the ice-cream.

I don't think so. The 360 already has security built into it. That's not to say if you DO have internet security they won't download patches.

Man I hate this no edit... no good writer EVER gets it right the first time.

...no internet CONNECTION...

no offense, but I don't think a lot of people are going to spend an extra three hundred odd bucks after upgrading their PCs because they couldn't spend $30 on internet for a month =P
