    I honestly don't see what purpose it serves. A CDKey alone (for online play anyway) stops any pirates from actually being able to use the game online. just about everybody knows how to find ways around it anyway, so it's not like it actually works. I wish these game companies would just give up on it.

    The quiz that kept asking all these question to verify your age and then asked you something from the manual.
    High End Lian Li Case = $180 on Mastercard
    High End Coolermaster Case = $180 on mastercard
    Debating which computer case is better = Priceless

    I'm a Coolermaster Fanboy, are you?

    The original Leisure Suit Larry did that, right? Still didn't stop me from playing it when I was little.

    CloneCD and DAEMON Tools. Voila, problem fixed.

    Considering that I don't play many games on my PC, space isn't a huge problem.

    I had to use the 'no CD crack' with Delta Force Black Hawk Down, because the CD wouldn't consistantly be read when I tried to start the game everytime. The game would only find the CD about 1 out of every 8 attempts.
