I wouldn't mind tbh...

Valve DRM > SecuROM limited installs
And Valve occasionally hands out free keys you can give to buddies. I still have a HL2 one sitting around, since everyone I know already has it or isn't interested in STEAM.

As far as I know, BF:Heroes will only be distributed (and launched) through the BF:Heroes website. It explains it all on the site.

That was put on the site before EA decided to be on steam.
imo I think it's going to be on steam.

Everything ought to be on steam, so that it never runs out of business, and DRM becomes more or less obsolete.

I don't. Since BF:Heroes is ad driven, and the ads are on the site, they're going to make people go to the site to launch the game. Otherwise why would people put adverts there and how would DICE get money to support the game?

If its on Steam there will be no adverts.

I have to agree with Yoda... all the character customization features they have built in to heroes are based on the website.. as far as I can tell they expect most players to launch the game from the website and not from a desktop shortcut...

Okay, nevermind on my Mass Effect statement.

I "acquired" a copy to see if they finally saved it from a technical doom before I buy it, but apparently they have not.

GTA4 it is then.

Sounds like a good idea...

I'm waiting for my new build and 5-7 patches for GTA IV before I can play it in a resolution thats higher than 800x600

Are they random problems that everyone has, or is it like a "this series of graphics cards will cause problems" thing like Mass Effect?

It's a 'nobody can play the game well/at all' problem .

But to answer your question, i've read one or two comments saying they have no problems with the game, but the rest...

Yeah if you have the latest and gratest insan'o build (read: Core2Quad Extreme & GTX280 SLi) you can run it "decently"

But the game is so unoptimized that everyone else just seem to choke on it

My 7900GTO can only run it without glitches @ 800x600 with 0xAA which sucks on a monitor with a native res. of 1280x1024
I know my card is only 1 level above the minimum spec. (7900gt) but usually you can still run the game in your displays native res. but GTA IV scales up textures with resolution making it near impossible to reach good resolutions even when leaving all other settings at a minimum...
