PC
gamers to only a few concurrent installs of the game. The DRM was known to be a little faulty though as some users were unable to reach their install limit or to claim back 'install credits' after uninstalling the game.
Worse, the software was shown to be pretty pointless for the most part and cracks were quickly spotted on the internet to circumvent

Now, almost a year later, the SecuROM copy-protection is gone. 2K's Elizabeth Tobey has said on the
official forums
for the game that "
all activation restrictions, including install limits, have been removed from BioShock
PC
."
