Fight Brings Restrictive DRM To the PS3 240  Posted by Soulskill
from the let's-blame-ubisoft dept. Channard writes "As reported
by Joystiq, the PS3/PlayStation Network version of Final Fight
Double Impact features a rather restrictive piece of digital
rights management. In order to launch the game, you have to be
logged into the PlayStation Network and if you're not, the game
refuses to launch. This could be written off as a bug of some
kind except for the fact that the error message that crops up
tells you to sign in, suggesting Sony/Capcom intentionally
included this 'feature.' Granted, you do have to log into the
PlayStation Network to buy the title but as one commentator
pointed out, logging in once does not mean you'll be logged in
all the time. Curiously, the 360 version has no such
restrictions, so you can play the game whether you're online or
offline. But annoying as this feature may be, there may be
method in Sony's madness. " Channard con
