good news :D

Well the game itself is somewhat medicore

I read the first 10 words and thought "this writer is a moron", then went on reading the rest of the article and received confirmation.

Good news, I guess. Couldn't care less about it tho :P

^ This. What a lot of people don't realise is that RUSE is the DRM, the game is so mediocre that no one will even bother to nick it never mind buy it:P

Excellent news. Now if they can just shape the game into a decent RTS...

Ouch, thats harsh. :P

I'm afraid I don't believe this news, for several reasons: 1. The Steam store page for the game lists the Online Services Platform DRM as being included in the game, and 2. the box art on Wikipedia has the warning "A permanent internet connection is required to play this game."

If it is valid, then naturally I welcome the move, although Ubisoft have given no indication that they are scaling back.

You people realise that Ruse isn't developed by Ubisoft, right?

Knowing that the developer turned to Ubisoft to have their game published is bad enough.

Further investigating the game, I've also discovered it to be on 360 and PS3...

It went from a "I'll wait for a bargain bin" to a ":lol: No chance in hell" for me.

he Ubisoft DRM is by no means a bad thing, I welcome it with open arms. Unfortunately something that seems to plague every PC gamer is constant whining about one thing or another. If they haven't got frame rates to cry about, they will of course cry about something else, and so the vicious circle continues.

Well, never going to that site again.Vfanek

They write some serious articles too.

They're from Paris, that's the main reason why they're partners with Ubisoft.

Their previous game, Act of War, was awesome. Best Command and Conquer game ever...

Ruse's design happens to fit within console limitations. It's not a dumbed down game like that Tom Clancy thing from a while ago. You should investigate even further to understand how and why:P And besides, Universe at War, BFME2 and CnC were good PC strategy games.
