THE HORROR: The REAL TS3 Scoop As It Unfolds
Skadi:
The NFO lists it as being securom protected, but I have obviously ensured that I am securom free.

Alright, so I joined to express my opinion about this game. The people making it sound horrible are over exaggerating, IMO.
Look ma! Is sheeple, can I pets it??
Don't you let that dirty thing follow you home Tasha...you're not keeping it.
But I could keep it in the yard and train it up real good!
Actually, with this sort of kneejerk, pointless reaction, you guys are acting more like sheep than ttech is. Whoever they are is obviously un-sheeplike enough to have arred the game, for one thing. Additionally, they have taken their time to post a capitalised, grammatical, correctly spelt post outlining a few points of interest, to which they have attached screen shots. They didn't say the game was unequivocally great, nor did they say that it was irredeemably bad; they simply noted their experience with the game so far and added their opinion that it was not so black as some would paint it.
As for the rubbish about it being their first post and, therefore, not to be trusted, the insinuation is childish and invalid. Imagine that there is another forum, one which Pes, say, is not yet a member of but that you are. Imagine there is an ongoing discussion to which Pes, newly joined, contibutes his first post. Do you automatically dismiss his observations as incorrect and untrustable because he is a 'noob'? If so, then you are an idiot. Judge a post on its content not just on the poster's join date.
People are allowed to have differing opinions, you know, especially when they are prepared to present them in a cogent and considered manner. Sometimes, some of you behave like the coke-fiends of my acquaintance who treat anyone who doesn't want to partake of their drug of choice as though they are engaging in some sort of moral attack when, in fact, they are merely expressing a personal choice.
Kyna:
Yes, BV and all TS2 EPs/EPs released after BV had SecuROM. <looks like I was ninja'd by Skadi on that point>
The torrent sites are including the following instructions with their TS3 download:

2. Burn or mount the image.
That suggests that the torrent is an image of a disk-based copy. The torrent sites also advise that the copy protection on the uncracked version was SecuROM, so it looks like the disk-based copy may indeed have SecuROM.
Of course, this is merely speculation based on the available evidence, and I will be happy if I am proved wrong when the game is released.
Skadi:
Perhaps Pes isn't the best example there FB.
Merlin:
EA confirmed several times that there will be no Securom on the disk: http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?threadID=9c697e66b53cb9826ee6a642c297d163&directoryID=225&startRow=1&openItemID=item.225,item.43,item.61,item.104,item.41,item.127,item.23#3dd4e4f42bb309388dfc6c17cf007a2b
I'm so hoping this is true...
