Title: Splinter Cell Double Agent - Copy Protection Post by: schild on June 01, 2009, 06:28:53 PM I wanna play through it on PC. Steam version is $4.99.
Someone look it up for me, what copy protection does the Steam version have? Is it still starforce? Title: Re: Splinter Cell Double Agent - Copy Protection Post by: schild on June 01, 2009, 08:02:22 PM Couldn't find a straight answer, going to find out the hard way. I mean, what's $5?!
Title: Re: Splinter Cell Double Agent - Copy Protection Post by: rattran on June 01, 2009, 09:25:10 PM $5 is a bargain to potentially inflict starforce on your computing machine!
Title: Re: Splinter Cell Double Agent - Copy Protection Post by: EWSpider on June 03, 2009, 04:37:45 AM I bought this on Steam as well figuring it wouldn't have the copy protection, but I haven't installed it yet so I can't confirm or deny. This did get me looking for Chaos Theory as well since it's the prequel and I haven't played that either. After surfing the interwebz a bit I was scared off of CT by the reported copy protection. Anyone have any advice/ideas if I want to pickup and play CT without sacrificing my computer? I guess I could just pickup the Xbox version, but I'd prefer to play on my PC (my kids don't give their old man much time on the consoles).

I haven't played it yet, but my computer didn't implode after installing it. I assume Steam has their own install process that strips out all the crap from the original install. Steam itself is the copy protection, afterall.
