A friend and I recently tried to get a LAN game of Battlefield 1942 going. It was only possible with hacks and [available, well-trodden] anti-piracy circumvention.

This made me very sad. I'm not overly sentimental for that game, but it still has a lot of merit, and my computer can still play it. Should I have to wait for EA to repackage it in some kind of virtual console store? (No.)

EA was giving away Battlefield 1942 on Origin last time I checked. Why is anti-priacy circumvention required?
