Hi all,
I thinking of ordering T2 Extreme Edition (WMVHD) from US or Canada, but have been told that because of DRM and living in the UK I may not be able to play it. Can anyone confirm.

There isn't version with HD format (wmv hd).
The problem with HD verision isn't with wrong region (1) but with DRM. This
HD version needs internet connection to get license. It is possible only for
USA and Canada citizens.
Luckly there is a solution.
Use IP address from public Proxies from USA to get the license.
It works.
Good luck.

http://www.publicproxyservers.com/page1.html
is the first page of proxy info (there are at least 5). find an IP that you
want to use based on the location and connection type information provided,
then go to your internet options>connections>lan settings>proxy server,
check to use, and input ip address and port. all of the requests will
appear to come from the proxy instead of your local machine.
