Gears of Flaw

Gears of War PC gamers have been vexed over the weekend – anyone playing the ‘Windows Live’ version of the game has been unable to launch the game since Thursday January 29th.

A bug in the DRM software presents the user with an error message. After lots of searching, we found that you can circumvent this by simply changing the date of your computer back a day. Of course this isn’t ideal, so we’re waiting for Epic Games to release a patch.

Shoddy. This is yet another example of DRM denting a game company’s reputation. When will they learn?
