    I've got some good news. Ubisoft's DRM is finally gone from AC2 and Splinter Cell Conviction after the new patch. I was reading up somewhere and got this great news. However , you still need an internet connection to log in but that's ok to be frank.. not as bad as needing a constant connection!

    Can someone update to the newest patch and confirm this? Some source links below.

    Hopefully Soon HAWX 2 will have this removed so i can go and buy it!
