Gameplay Video: (probably from console version of the game) Protection: Unconfirmed but likely to be SecuROM DRM The original was a disappointment - hope this one is better.

Protection: Probably Steam “reason we don't like DRM solutions is because they punish the innocent and they have to jump through all these hoops.we're going with the approach that Valve pioneered to just reward the people who actually bought the game with cool stuff.

Note that this article does not include all PC releases for this month. This posts includes summarized details (release date, protection/DRM info, trailers, previews, etc) about upcoming PC games in February that I think would be popular among PC gamers. Anyway there are several much hyped PC titles that are due to be released in February 2009. Out of all PC releases in 2009, I think only Mirror’s Edge lived up to its expectations. In my opinion, 2009 did not start that well for PC gamers.
