What are the games that use STARFORCE protection?

I think there should be a list. I never noticed the protection being listed on the games boxes. So Ive downloaded one game (Trackmania) and bought another one (Toca Race Driver) and both were Starforce protected, and I deleted one and returned the other one to the store. If I knew they were Starforce protected I wouldnt bother even looking for them. It happens that most people look for cracks and nocds of games cuz they dont know they are StarForce protected and think its weird no cracks have been released yet.

Btw, does anyone has any news on the efforts to break StarForce? Ive made a search and found nothing new... and some threads from APRIL had people thinking it was going to be cracked soon... how sad.

Its like the AUDIO CDs ripping protections being released lately... yes, they can protect from ripping (but they were all bypassed). But the protection also makes the CDs have clicking noises or be unplayable in many CD players, specially car CD players.

I smell warez "you downloaded a game" that is not allowed on this website mate this is for ligitimate games only ie games you bought from your hard earned money. Less of the warez or you'll be banned.

http://www.daemon-tools.cc and click on the game databasse link on the left. If you click on the letter for the title of the game you are thinking of buying, you can find out what protection it has if it's lsted.

Ask the Starforce people to put a list of Starforce-protected software onto their site. A long list might even make them proud... (Especially, if they omit the information about which of those have already been cracked. )

The thread is a little older, but anyway, there used to be a list at boycottstarforce.org, but the site mysteriously vanished. I rescurrected the old list and updated it with more games. It's unlikely to be complete, but should gives an overview:

http://www.similarities.org/starforce.html

If you know of Starforce "protected" games that are not listed yet, please drop me a note and I'll add them.
