Gaming

Lets be real, while I love the idea of users making informed choices.... how big do you think the labels on cigarettes to say "they will give you cancer and kill you". People aren't bright, you can warn them until the cows come home, they want to play a game, they will buy it. Very few of them would have listened to any warning no matter how blatent.

People are stupid... for 99.9% of people "we'll send out the code and let you set up private servers", is really no different than we'll shut down the servers and you can never play again. There's not a huge overlap between people who understand how to create a private server and/or set up their routers to allow incoming connections, and people who actually can convince friends to join their servers.

Now maybe the "the servers are guaranteed to remain until X date", is a reasonable one. Very least tells people their games have a shelf life and not to buy it after a certain point in time.
