Yep, how about Counter Strike Source?

Why not make one big thread where you list games and ask if people have heard if it?

This is nothing to do with FSX game. It is offtopic and differnet games.

I have, but I haven't play for a while.

Honestly, that promo vid reminds me alot of Halo. Does look pretty sweet, though.

I'm a big BF2 player...but I played the 2142 demo. It's ok as far as I can tell...but I have heard recently that the full retail version of it comes with spyware...so I'm not going to be getting it anytime soon...lol.


Also, for the counter strike players here...a kid in my BF2 clan helped make this video...pretty badass if you ask me.

I've heard the same thing ..

So. In the latest CGW podcast, they received retail boxed copies of BF 2142.

When you open the box, a big slip of paper falls out first, preceeding any discs or manuals. The slip of paper says, essentially, that 2142 includes monitoring software which runs while your computer is online, and records "anonymous" information like your IP address, surfing habits (probably via cookie scans), and other "computing habits" in order to report this information back to ad companies and ad servers, which generates in-game ads.

Now, I can live with certain in-game ads (though apparently there will be Dodge truck and Neon ads in the bleak, futuristic world of 2142), but including a lengthy description - outside of even the Eula - seems to indicate even EA knows that this is some shady borderline spyware sh*t. I don't support it and won't be buying 2142 (for a host of other reasons, too).

I'm not too shocked though, most protected software contain some sort of "spyware". EA just sucks about it more than other publishers. Sony's Securom sucks for "spying" too. It scans your programs (even ones not running) and the game refuses to run if any it doesn't like are on your system.

I think lots of people will be happy to break the seal on the game box to discover this. How many stores accept returns of software once the box seal is broken?

To this day, I believe SoftIce is the best piece of software I've ever bought. It's got millions of uses, including the removal of annoying protection :X.
