Serious Sam 3: BFE – DRM Introduces Immortal Scorpion

Okay everyone, I have a confesion to make; I simply love Croteam. It’s not the extra and juicy details that the Croatian developer has added to the game. No no no, it’s the introduction of an immortal speedy arachnoid enemy – due to its anti-piracy protection system – that is the icing on the cake. So, if you are one of those greedy gamers that wanted to play illegaly this polished FPS game, beware; an immortal speedy red scorpion/arachnoid will come after you until you drop dead. Now that’s awesome. Of course this will get cracked, eventually, but it’s hilarious witnessing pirates complaining about that immortal enemy. Kudos to Croteam for doing something similar to Bohemia’s take on Take On Helicopters DRM with its blurry graphics. Great work guys!
