LPG's Internet-based copy protection
A new report confirms that Linux Game Publishing have developed an Internet-based copy protection.
I think by this time you casn guess it....they will using this for their upcoming commercial game port.
As Usual any user will be able to install their games, but for launching the game we have to provide a valid key and a password which are validated against LGP's servers.
These combination will allow the user to install them on different computers. Basically an Internet connection is necessary, which might be a hassle for users.
LGP CEO, Michael Simms, responded he regrets he has to introduce a copy protection scheme, but this has to dointriduced since most of the gamers are downloading games rather than buying it.
I wonder if this annoys gamers...or will lead to No Piracy tate??
