Ruminant: You can get a totally free (open source) version of X-COM, it's called UFO: Alien Invasion. Pretty cool.

Ooooh, I remember stumbling onto that a few months ago. It looked like an awesome concept but incredibly buggy and unfinished so I didn't bother with it but if your giving it a good review I might check it out..

Jim, I've got the Gold version of Spellforce 2 and I don't think it has Starforce.. Could be different for different regions or perhaps they got rid of it for the gold version.

Oh really? I'll look into that. It's entirely possible, I know of a few games that released with StarForce (or other horrid DRM), and then rereleased a different edition without it.

(Odd, just looked it up, and apparently only the Euro and Russian releases supposedly had StarForce, US version uses TAGES, which is simply not as invasive.)

AFAIK that's still the case. It's quite extraordinary what they came up with so far, but it still doesn't make it a game.
