Crysis Dvd Making Strange Noises!!

I hate disks that you have to have in the drive, why not have some sort of account that checks you've bought the game

Because not everyone has internet access (or a reliable one at that)

and, what happens when the "checking" or distribution system is cracked? this has happened with steam

[Agent]

and when / if they go bust?
