The publisher earn most of the money you put into a game when you buy it, so its their "mission" to save the game from warez scene and illegal distribution. Guess what, they decide which copy protection to take...I think the developer doesnt want the games to be offered in inet illegal but they get the money from the publishers like Take2 or Vivendi,... and thats all, they get $ from the publisher and the publisher needs to get the money he gave the devs back with paying the game. Which isnt very good if you can get it on inet, kazaa, ... so they use StarForce 3

The publisher can't always use the hardest of SF, it would simply kill the end users machine...imagine Doom III with the toughest version, VM stuff, Hidden filesystem and 50+ pcodes? Pretty much pull the trigger, order pizza, get a beer, get another beer, check what's on TV, take a wuzz, have sex with GF and then *maybe* watch the nice shot hitting the enemy....

I always thought copy protections actually act before playing a game, at the game's startup...
StarForce is running ingame to check the physical and virtual drives ?
Yeah, now i guess why CSS and HL2 dont have SF, and Splinter Cell 3 was running like a 1930's movie with 15 frames ^^

i think that we are in a good course. games like silent hunter 3 and soldiers heroes of WW2 have been cracked. reloaded team has done a terrific job against starforce protection. hopefully we will see a splinter cell chaos theory crack

The Game Restiricted Area has NO Starforce Protection.

Its called Sysyphus or something, i know that because i have written a "Manual to crack RA on every update" because the Protection is a Simple Jump/NoJump Query .

Besides This Starforce Games have no defect sektors, the DIsc of RA has Lots of it.

Trust me my Friend, it is not Starforce on this Game.

But theres another Game called SUDEKI, it had Starforce and have been cracked. A No-DVD is on GCW and it acutually works.

Hope that clears some things up

You're right, he probably meant "Area 51"
