Several months ago, Ubisoft came under fire for putting a DRM set-up for games like Assassin's Creed and as you might know many people feel strongly that any DRM in a PC game is not needed. Now it appears that Ubisoft, at least for one PC product, may have some different thoughts on their DRM policies.
The just released PC version of their action-adventure revamp of Prince of Persia apparently contains no DRM at all. According to a post on the game's official message board, an Ubisoft rep states, "You`re right when you say that when people want to pirate the game they will but DRM is there to make it as difficult as possible for pirates to make copies of our games. A lot of people complain that DRM is what forces people to pirate games but as PoP PC has no DRM we`ll see how truthful people actually are. Not very, I imagine." By the way this is just for the retail version of the game, not the downloadable versions which are dependent sometimes on the download service's features.
