I find it interesting that the Spore DRM was a major controversy yet Crysis Warhead has pretty much the same stuff on it and no one so much as mentions it.
Crytek just announced today the official details of the DRM -- even if the game's been out since Tuesday, since it hasn't been clearly and officially stated ahead of time what the DRM details was/were to be. With Spore, everybody knew what the DRM was and its details a little bit ahead of time.
A lot of message boards (GameSpot, Crymod, etc etc) -- there been lots of discussion and speculation about the DRM for Crysis Warhead/Crysis Wars.
Also, as a game itself, in general, Crysis: Warhead/Crysis Wars is not on the radar as much as say Spore is; everybody wants Spore. It's one of the most anticipated games this year.
Crysis Wars/Crysis Warhead is basically a game that is a little bigger than an expansion. It's not Crysis 2. I think a true-blue Crysis 2 would get more attention than Crysis Wars/Warhead, if it came w/ the annoying DRM.
Plus, I'm guessing Spore's system requirements are much lower than Crysis Warhead/Crysis Wars, which means that probably more gamers will be able to run Spore.
Hmmmmmmmm....I don't think Crysis Warhead/Wars has been cracked yet, either.
Give it a few days, and I think we'll see more DRM discussions and madness ensue, thanks to Crysis Warhead/Wars. The more EA games using this DRM, the more I think they'll fuel the fire...
