It's literally a small file, like a few MBs, that you put in the game's directory that removes the Ubi DRM entirely.

I mean... I'm just saying.

I'm sticking to my principles. Still, I'm longing to finally play AC2 or SC :(

You are perfectly entitled to do that and I have done up till now. However AC2 for €11 and now SC:C for €9 well that's me sending Ubisoft the message that if they are going to use that DRM then all the titles they value at €50 are only worth about €10 to me.

Ah, that sucks then.

THAT is what I was looking for!

KB Crossworlds Game of the Year Edition around $10 US - this is platinum but I guess two copies of Legacy won't kill me.

My question is, there's an 'Install' button on this downloader thingy like it might do like Greenman and not tell me where my files are to back up - this isn't the case, is it? I can back up downloaded games from GetGamesGo?

Yes you can keep the installer file, just run the install program again.

Backup files locates in DocumentandSettings\AllUsers\ApplicationData\GetGames

Yeah I chased one of the files it was downloading with Windows Search. It created a directory named after the game in the hidden Applications folder under All Users on C drive.

Which I was trying to pull it to my E drive because there's more room there.

Now that I know where it is, when it asks to install, I'll cancel, back up along with the downloader executable (like GamersGate) and then install.

I want to send them the message that I wouldn't take their games even if they were given to me for free, as long as there is an online check each time I fire up the bloody game. One time activation I'm fine with.

Had no idea GetGamesGoallowed one to do that. Useful!
In any case, it's like the third time JC2 has been at that pricepoint.

GetGamesGo doesn't let me checkout with PP :(, try to buy Call of Juarez BIB:

I dont really agree withcracking the drm on stuff but if its really overkill drm I will, I do try to avoid drm though

Here's the UK version. It's £13.39, which is not great since Gameplay, Amazon and GAME all sell it for under ten quid.

RE: UbiDRM. I've also not touched any of their games with a bargepole. However, if TrackMania 2 is infected with it, I may have to change that policy. I love me some TrackMania.

RE: Get Games: That's actually not bad. Hitman games at £1.50 a pop is quite tempting.

Ithe same offer on the EU store
