What is Digital Rights Management? The focus is right on the anti-piracy software at the moment, but do you know exactly what it is, how it works, and what the biggest types of DRM are. This gameplayer article will fill you in on everything you need to know.
"Such protection sounds like a good idea in theory but, as time has gone on, pirates have been swiftly adapting to circumvent any copy protection blocking their path to bootable booty. For the longest of times there was a vicious cycle: pirates breaking through security barriers, barriers being upgraded again, barriers being broken, etc, etc. In recent times however, gaming has become a much more lucrative business, and some publishers are turning to stricter measures to protect the line of their bottoms (or their 'bottom lines' if you'd prefer a monetary term)."

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
