There has been an outcry of frustration since it was revealed earlier this week that Diablo III requires an active Internet connection in order to play. The news came on the heels of Ubisoft announcing the same thing for Driver: San Francisco, bringing back a DRM policy it had used with past PC games like Assassin's Creed II and Splinter Cell: Conviction....

...Blizzard's online technologies VP Robert Bridenbecker admitted to MTV Multiplayer that he was "actually kind of surprised in terms of there even being a question in today's age around online play and the requirement around that." As he sees it, that's the direction the industry is going, and there are many benefits that come along with it.

que the Oh really owl. Arrogance is what kills a company, and it looks like Blizzard is starting to let their rep go to thier heads.
