Looks like EA is going to be making a mistake just like Ubisoft.

The DRM for silent hunter 5 was cracked on the first day for torrent downloads. Now legit buyers are punished when the connection is lost to server, even in single player. Guess I won't be buying PC games from EA anymore. Required internet connection for single player is stupid. PS3 crash proved DRM is bad.

Agreed

EA should not be doing this.
