1. I'm glad they're not going to use the same crappy DRM that Bioshock had.

Don't get me wrong: I'm really looking forward to the game.

But Bioshock's DRM was total bullshit. Two installs, and then you're SOL. Wait. Now we've upped it to five installs.

However...looks like Irrational Games has made a great decision:

Only Steam's DRM. Nothing else.

Now to make sure my computer can run it. No console version for me.
