    Since Ubisoft is DRM-happy. I wonder if they release the mmo with addons support, I have a feeling they will put drm on all addons. oh shoot... I give them the idea! *hides from angry MMORPG mobs*

    Online games intrinsically have your needing to connect to the company's servers in order to play the game.  That by itself offers all the DRM they could possibly want, with no need to tack on more.

    What is AAA? Seriously, has this been defined yet?

    It's as misleading as a hot chick on facebook.

    Umm making any game an entirely online experience like an MMO is the ultimate in DRM solutions. It requires "always on internet connection" and usually (in B2P/P2P games) a game key of some type that is permenantly associated with your account.

    I know MMO do require a constant internet connection. I am not talking about the DRM on the game. I am talking about the DRM inside the game like addons. I thought it will be funny if Ubisoft decided to add DRM on all addons like making sure they are being paid for or making sure the addons is doing what it suppose to. Plus we all know that Ubisoft is very extremely super duper DRM-happy. Wouldn't be surprise if they add DRM around addons.

    It's 20 million dollars spent for each A. Doesn't matter what you spend the money on...you could buy 60 million dollars worth of clueless conventional-wisdom-junkie developer blowing smoke up your rear...and technically you've got a "AAA" MMO. Actually...that's what most companies do, strangly enough.

    Once you get to three, you can spend all you want, there are no more A's. Some say the smoke feels quite good, though.

    It means its highest quality and douzens of millions of investment before release.
