    I read previously if you set the computer date before the certificate expiration you can get online fine.

    And the companies in question are aware of the issue, and processing a fix.

    Re: DO you play gears of war on pc

    Is it really DRM though? if its a hard coded timer in the game then thats not DRM(or am i wrong?) because DRM is a number of installs or am i wrong again?. Dont want to argue incase im wrong so please correct me.


    This is stupid of epic, they seem bad at pc support *UT series* and now this along with them not bringing gow2 to pc i think its safe to say they dont like the pc and i think they should leave soon, better developers are out there .

    According to Eurogamer, the expiration of the Windows digital certification for the game has rendered it unplayable. If you try to load of Gears of War after January 29 (read: today), you will get the message, "You cannot run the game with modified executable code. Please reinstall the game."
    Apparently it was an issue with MS.

    And the same can be said for any game, i've seen MMO's ship with game breaking bugs that were patched after release, and i cannot put my mind to it right now, but i bet this is not the first game to have an issue like this at release, and this is just the games industry.

    Im glad I only bothered with single player and then formatted. Good times.
    The games too buggy to bother with online.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
