Bandai Namco EULA - Revision history

Naboroo: I added a link to Bandai Namco Entertainment's EULA from Steam, however I was not able to confirm the 4 first statements described in the First paragraph of the page. The agreements: 1) never state that you did not purchase the game 2) do not state that you have no ownership over the copy of the game 3) do state that usage must be done on a dedicated hardware, but I'm not sure to understand how that is anti-consumer 4) do state that the license can be revoked but it's normal for any EULA

			Practices like this erode consumer ownership. They are part of the ''you will own nothing'' narrative that companies are now trying to push. This goes directly against consumers' interests as it removes the consumer's authority over its property.
