IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, LIABILITY OF THE IGN PARTIES WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

The TOS and your account on the Services are personal to you and may not be transferred or assigned. The TOS is governed by U.S. Federal law and the laws of the State of California, U.S.A., without regard to its conflicts of law provisions; and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in the federal and state courts located in San Francisco County, California, U.S.A. in all disputes arising out of or relating to the Services. Use of the Services is unauthorized in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of these terms and conditions, including without limitation this Section. IGN's performance of the TOS is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing contained in the TOS is in derogation of our right to comply with governmental, court and law enforcement requests or requirements relating to your use of the Services or information provided to or gathered by IGN with respect to such use. If any part of the TOS is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the TOS shall continue in effect.

ARTICLE II. Subscription Terms of Service

Certain Services provided by IGN require registration and payment (such Services are referred to as the "Premium Services"). The terms and conditions contained in this Article II (the "Subscriber TOS") apply to each subscriber to a Premium Service, including but not limited to Arcade, FilePlanet, Ad-Free Network, Founders' Club, and Insider. THE SUBSCRIBER TOS IS IN ADDITION TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH IN THE TOS, AND THE TOS IN ITS ENTIRETY APPLIES TO EACH SUBSCRIBER. PLEASE READ THE TOS, INCLUDING THE SUBSCRIBER TOS, CAREFULLY PRIOR TO COMPLETING YOUR REGISTRATION FOR A PREMIUM SERVICE. BY REGISTERING FOR THE PREMIUM SERVICE, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO AND AGREEING TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SUBSCRIBER TOS AS WELL AS ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE TOS. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO ALL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE TOS (INCLUDING THE SUBSCRIBER TOS), YOU MUST DISCONTINUE THE REGISTRATION PROCESS.

For questions about your IGN subscription, please visit our FAQ at http://support.igngamespy.com. All questions that cannot be answered via the FAQ should be sent using our online form, available at http://support.igngamespy.com. Please include your name and username in all correspondence.

1. Payment Obligation and Credit Card Authorization. You are responsible for paying any and all charges relating to your Premium Service account, including without limitation, periodic subscription fees (the initial fee and automatic renewals). You grant IGN permission to charge your credit card (or other approved facility) to pay for all such charges. The subscription fee will be billed at the beginning of your subscription and on each annual, quarterly or monthly renewal thereafter, dependant on the original subscription term selected at registration, unless you cancel at least 10 days prior to the renewal date pursuant to the process set forth below.

2. Renewal and Cancellation of Your Subscription. You grant IGN permission to automatically renew your subscription and charge your account up to five (5) days prior to the day on which your subscription is scheduled to end. However, you may "opt out" of this automatic renewal by visiting The Support Center () and canceling on your own or by using our online form to notify IGN. IGN will cancel your account upon receipt of such notification from you. All fees, charges and sales are final. Once charged to your credit card, the payments are nonrefundable, except in cases of demonstrated fraud, which will be determined at IGN's sole discretion. You acknowledge that canceling your subscription will not immediately terminate access to the Premium Services. Your subscription will remain open until the paid period expires. You acknowledge and agree that the authorization to charge your credit card or other payment mechanism for the Premium Services shall automatically transfer to any successors or assigns of the Premium Service for substantially similar services at the same website. You may not assign or transfer your subscription to any other person or entity. You must be at least 18 years old (or have the permission of a credit card holder who is) to subscribe for Premium Services.

Payment must be made by a major credit card accepted by IGN, check, PayPal, or money order (U.S. dollars only). If IGN does not receive payment from the credit card issuer or its agent, you agree to pay all amounts due upon our demand. Your card issuer agreement governs your use of your designated card in connection with the Premium Service, and you must refer to that agreement and not the TOS to determine your rights and liabilities as a cardholder. YOU, AND NOT IGN, ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY AMOUNTS BILLED TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY A THIRD PARTY EVEN IF THEY WERE NOT AUTHORIZED BY YOU.

IGN RESERVES THE RIGHT, AT ANY TIME, TO CHANGE ITS FEES AND BILLING METHODS, INCLUDING THE ADDITION OF SUPPLEMENTAL FEES OR SEPARATE CHARGES FOR CONTENT, OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY IGN, EFFECTIVE THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER AN ONLINE POSTING AT IGN. IGN MAY ADDITIONALLY PROVIDE NOTICE OF BILLING CHANGES VIA EMAIL. If any such change is unacceptable to you, you may cancel your Subscription Service by visiting The Support Center (). However, canceling will not immediately terminate access to your Premium Service account and IGN will not refund the remaining portion of your subscription. The subscription will remain open until the paid period expires. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THE PREMIUM SERVICE FOLLOWING THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF A CHANGE TO SUCH FEES AND BILLING METHODS SHALL CONSTITUTE YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH CHANGE. IGN IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FAILURE TO CANCEL YOUR SUBCRIPTION EITHER IN WRITING BY EMAIL, FAX, OR LETTER ON OR THROUGH THE WEB SITE. YOU AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IGN SHALL NOT BE REPONSIBLE FOR ANY ADJUSTMENTS, REFUNDS OR ACCOUNT OVERSIGHTS THAT YOU HAVE NOT SUBMITTED TO IGN THROUGH THE SUPPORT CENTER WITHIN 60 DAYS OF SUCH OCCURANCE OR LACK THEREOF.

There shall be no refunds, except in demonstrated cases of credit card fraud (as determined by IGN at its sole discretion) or under the terms agreed to when purchasing a product or service as agreed to during the payment process. You understand and agree that as a result of processing a refund IGN incurs certain administrative costs, and that the fees below are a fair and accurate assessment of those costs. Should a refund be permitted, all refunds (except those due to demonstrated instances of credit card fraud) are subject to a "restocking" fee (which also applies to digital products), currently as follows:

• Subscriptions: $5 per charge refunded

• Digital Retail: 10% of the purchase price

3. Termination of Your Subscription. You acknowledge that IGN, in its sole discretion, may terminate your ID, password, account (or any part thereof) or use of the Premium Service for a variety of reasons, including, without limitation, if IGN believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of the TOS or any other agreement referred to in the TOS. IGN may also, in its sole discretion, at any time discontinue providing the Premium Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Premium Service under any provision of the TOS may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that IGN may immediately deactivate or delete your account and/or bar any further access to the Premium Service. If your account is terminated by IGN, it will not be automatically renewed and access will be terminated, without refund. Further, you agree that IGN shall not be liable to you or any third-party for termination of your access to the Premium Service. YOU AGREE AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IGN SHALL NOT REPONSIBLE FOR ANY ADJUSTMENTS, REFUNDS OR ACCOUNT OVERSIGHTS PAST THE 60th DAY OF SUCH OCCURANCE OR LACK THEREOF.

4. Trial Memberships. IGN occasionally offers promotional trial memberships to its Premium Services at special discounted prices. If you sign up for a trial membership, you will be automatically renewed at the normal subscription rate for the Premium Service at the end of the trial period, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the trial. You must cancel prior to the end of your trial to avoid charges to your credit card. We will continue to bill your credit card for the Premium Service at the standard Premium Service rate and renewal term thereafter, dependant on the original subscription term selected at registration, until you cancel. For information about canceling your subscription, visit the Support Center ().

5. Subscriber Information. You agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Premium Service registration process. You must promptly inform IGN of any of the following: changes in the expiration date of any credit card used in connection with the Premium Service; changes in home or billing address; and apparent breaches of security, such as loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure or use of an ID or password. You agree to notify IGN immediately upon learning of any potential breach of your Premium Service account.

6. Use Restriction. The material on the Services is for the private, non-commercial enjoyment of Subscribers only. Any other use is strictly prohibited. IGN spends a great deal of time and money to obtain the information appearing on our sites. You agree that you will not copy, publish, or in any way make available publicly any news, pictures, interviews, features, or any other information, content or materials from the Services, without express written permission from IGN. You agree that if you do so, IGN reserves the right to cancel your subscription immediately without refund. Additionally, reuse of copyrighted information (including but not limited to pictures, interviews, features, videos, audio, etc.) will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PunkBuster

SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT

 

 

The terms of this Software License Agreement (this "Agreement") shall apply to all versions, editions, and future updates of PunkBuster software and constitute a legal agreement between you (the "Licensee") and Even Balance, Inc. (the "Licensor").

 

BY INSTALLING, ENABLING OR USING PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE, THE LICENSEE IS CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY AND IS BECOMING A PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT. IF LICENSEE DOES NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, ACCEPTANCE MUST NOT BE SPECIFIED BELOW AND LICENSEE MUST NOT INSTALL OR USE THE SOFTWARE.

 

EVEN BALANCE, INC. RESERVES ALL RIGHTS NOT SPECIFICALLY GRANTED HEREIN.

 

Licensor grants Licensee a non-exclusive and non-transferable license to use PunkBuster software only for non-commercial entertainment purposes. Licensee may not disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer, redistribute (in any form), create derivative works of, or modify PunkBuster software in any way. Licensor reserves the right to terminate the license at any time and for any reason, or no reason at all, and without notice to licensee. Additionally, upon breach of any term of this Agreement, the license granted under this Agreement shall automatically terminate without any additional notice to Licensee. Upon termination of the license, Licensee shall destroy all copies of PunkBuster software in Licensee's possession.

 

Licensee acknowledges that PunkBuster software is optional and is not a requirement in any respect for using or enjoying games that integrate PunkBuster software technology. Licensee also acknowledges and agrees that PunkBuster software is self-updating, which means that future updates will, from time to time and without any notice, automatically be downloaded and installed as a normal and expected function of PunkBuster software. Licensee further acknowledges and accepts that PunkBuster software may be considered invasive. Licensee understands that PunkBuster software inspects and reports information about the computer on which it is installed to other connected computers and Licensee agrees to allow PunkBuster software to inspect and report such information about the computer on which Licensee installs PunkBuster software. Licensee understands and agrees that the information that may be inspected and reported by PunkBuster software includes, but is not limited to, Licensee's Internet Protocol Address, devices and any files residing on the hard-drive and in the memory of the computer on which PunkBuster software is installed. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that if Licensee does not want Licensor to collect and process such information, Licensee should not use the PunkBuster software. Further, Licensee consents to allow PunkBuster software to transfer actual screenshots taken of Licensee's computer during the operation of PunkBuster software for possible publication. Licensee understands that the purpose and goal of PunkBuster is to ensure a cheat-free environment for all participants in online games. Licensee agrees that the invasive nature of PunkBuster software is necessary to meet this purpose and goal. Licensee agrees that any harm or lack of privacy resulting from the installation and use of PunkBuster software is not as valuable to Licensee as the potential ability to play interactive online games with the benefits afforded by using PunkBuster software.

 

Licensee agrees not to export or re-export into any country subject to U.S. trade sanctions or to which the U.S. has embargoed goods or to any nationals or residents of such countries unless such nationals are permanent residents of a country that is not subject either to such sanctions or embargoed goods. LICENSEE AGREES NOT TO DOWNLOAD, INSTALL, OR USE PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE IN A COUNTRY OR LOCALE WHERE SUCH ACTION WOULD VIOLATE ANY LAW OR ORDINANCE.

 

This Software License Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the applicable laws of the State of Texas and applicable United States federal law. Exclusive venue for all litigation regarding this Agreement shall be in Harris County, Texas. Licensee agrees that any portion of this Agreement found to be invalid or unenforceable shall be modified, to the extent allowed by law, so as to allow for the enforcement of the original intended meaning of the portion found to be invalid or unenforceable.

 

PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, AND WITHOUT LIMITATION, THAT IT IS FREE OF DEFECTS, FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR THAT IT IS MERCHANTABLE. LICENSOR DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OR THAT IT WILL MEET LICENSEE'S SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS OR DESIRES. LICENSEE AGREES THAT NEITHER EVEN BALANCE, INC., ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, BUSINESS PARTNERS, SUCCESSORS NOR ASSIGNS SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM WHATSOEVER INVOLVING PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE IN ANY WAY. FURTHERMORE, SHOULD ANY VERSION OF PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE, INCLUDING FUTURE VERSIONS, PROVE DEFECTIVE IN ANY WAY, LICENSEE ASSUMES THE ENTIRE COST, IF ANY, OF LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY TYPE AND TO ANY DEGREE. THIS WARRANTY DISCLAIMER SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THE LICENSE OF PUNKBUSTER SOFTWARE BY LICENSEE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE LICENSE IS TERMINATED BY EVENBALANCE, INC. OR LICENSEE.

 

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between Licensor and Licensee and supercedes any prior statements, whether written or oral.

Er spillet tilgjengelig slik at man kan spille det via steam nå da ?

Ikke før ca. kl 02.00 i natt.

 

edit: Jeg ser at nedtellingen nå har forsvunnet på Warhead-siden på Steam. Men det er ikke tilgjengelig ennå. Merkelig. Den var satt til 2 i natt.

Endret av TCi

Tihi, folk som kjøper det på DVD liker det ikke. Jeg ser en ny Spore med 1,5 av 5 i snitt.

 

Her er kun titlene fra de siste anmeldelsene fra Amazon.

 

Don't want DRM anymore

3 install limit unacceptable

More of the same..with tighter DRM than Spore!

3 Install Limit? No EA, I am not a moron.

More DRM for EA after the SPORE crisis?

Buyer Beware you aren't buying this - you are renting it

It's just another sequel offering nothing new in terms of gameplay.

If you liked the first one...

DRM = Don't Run Me

Trying to kill PC gaming and drive sales to consoles

 

Samtlige utenom én (If you liked the first one...) gav 1 av 5. ;)
