Worst DRM Ever: Gears of War Cirtificate Expired Yesterday, Game Died

This is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Epic has made a huge mistake with it's DRM. Apparently the DRM's certificate expired yesterday and users found that they no longer had rights needed to play the game.

Everyone who legally purchased the DRM laden game suddenly was unable to play it. The funniest part is that the pirates are still having a blast (or as good of a time as one can have) playing it. The DRM didn't stop the pirates!

To be fair, the game can be played. Users are forced to set the calendar back on their system.

Epic needs to release a quick-fix NOW. Let me know if you were a victim of this DRM. Here is the forum post concerning this on Epic's board:
