Couldn't say as only steam/valve know what is on the content servers. With that out the way I wouldn't use steamwatch or Frey's filter anymore as it doesn't look at the cdn server that GON have organised with steam/valve.

I mean, if not being able to install on 3 computers at once has turned you off buying the game, you can't have wanted the game all that much I suspect.

It matters to me on a matter of principle. If Rockstar can't be honest with its potential customers regarding DRM information then they don't deserve my business.

They need to change their tune and quickly if they want to get any more money from me (that includes GTA 5).

It is great that you are so passionate about something, but to most of us DRM is a fact of life and it is not going anywhere. I believe the fact you mention it in every game related thread becomes a little tiresome for some and that is why you get so many replies across threads in relation to your posts regarding DRM. I am not saying don't post about it, but maybe limit it to one thread rather than every thread (food for thought anyway...just trying to offer you an alternative solution).

If you're happy with companies using DRM schemes such as activation limits or constant connection requirements and having them not telling you important details then more power to you.

This doesn't mean that people like me should just be confined to one thread or silenced completely.

I fail to see how a centralised thread regarding DRM is an attempt to silence you, rather an attempt to keep more topics on topic. However you are the second person to accuse me of trying to silence them in the past 24 hours, so maybe there is something to that....apologies if you took offense to my suggestion.

Really eager to play this game although I'm not so sure how it'll hold up with my GTX 470 (well, OC'd to a GTX 480). I'll probably download it at uni early next week methinks.

It kinda does you see most of the comic book style's in the loading screen, the narration is there but nothing like the previous version max still narrates as you play kinda giving off hints of what you need to do in some parts.

Cut scences are very "movie like" i don't find it as dark as the previous games but still just as enjoyable to play/watch.

I've almost finished the x360 version and i've quite enjoyed every second of it.
