Capcom DRM surprise!

I came across a link to the Resident Evil Revelations Steam forum while browsing the PC Gaming sub on Reddit, and well, it seems Capcom has decided to add some form of anti-modding DRM to their games. That alone is pathetic as hell, but it’s crazy Japanese business decisions we are talking bout there. You can’t get weirder than that. However, what once again caught my eye with this issue – is the issue of digital ownership, which mostly is confined to Steam.

Largo Winch is one of those franchises to me. Before Largo Winch – Empire Under Threat, I had never heard about this anti-corruption-fighting billionaire. It’s a name that has spawned both movies and games (as you can tell), from its humble beginnings as a comic from Belgium. So, what is it, and is it any good? Well, good might be stretching it, but I found the title charming. However, you must have a fondness for puzzles and point-and-click adventure gaming, even if the game includes combat segments. Let’s get into it.
