Driver: San Francisco PC delayed

The PC release of Driver: San Francisco has been pushed back a few weeks, while a Mac version has gone more seriously AWOL.

Ubisoft told Blue’s News the PC release will be on September 27, while console versions are expected earlier in the month.

A Mac version is apparently still on the cards but Ubisoft can’t give a release window yet.

No PC or Mac demo is planned.

Ubisoft has made something of a habit of announcing a delay to the PC version of games at the last minute, with recent Assassin’s Creed games a notable example.

…the hell?

Didn’t we get a really terrible reason for the always-on DRM that the game was “being released on all platforms at once” on Twitter?

Funny some develop said like you need to be Juggernaut like Blizzard to put stuff like always on internet connection for your games; and if Ubisoft really thinks he can do for ALL their games that’s just…But I don’t know they finally fix it for AC:Brotherhood.

… Are you f**king kidding me?

1. Shitty DRM
2. No demo
3. Delay

= Fuck you Ubisoft, I hope this fails so epically you won’t even bother anymore because I sure as hell don’t care.

This shouldn’t really surprise anyone, Ubisoft have followed this trend for quite awhile.

A lot of PC gamers are saying that Ubisoft should bother with PC games anymore, but honestly, I would rather deal with the DRM than having no games at all.

Sorry Ubisoft but from what I’ve seen so far the game seems mediocre, has no demo, has the worst DRM(especially for people on 100kbs) and has now been delayed. Seems Ubisoft just wants to punish PC players.

@5 This pretty much sums it up.
