Hi all,

Just for everyones information, the cd key that`s printed on the back of the manual will not work in a lot of cases.

I contacted( take 2 games) and they advised me that the key on the back of my manual is invalid, they could not supply one that did work, and advised me to return the game to the shop for an exchange, which is what i will be doing in a day or two, bit of a pain, but hey ho

Regards :mad:

i thought mine was invalid as well however the printing and font style is very poor on the cover and after trial and error eventually
i did get the correct code!

If there's a Z in the code, replace it with a 2. That 'fixed' mine.

I remember problems with some game's serials, you had to replace '0' or 'O' with 'Q'. You could try that. If it still doesn't work, bring it back, demand your money back and wait until they fix it.

'8' could be 'B'
'Z' could be '2'
'5' could 'S'
'0' coulde 'O' or 'Q' ('Q' coulde be 'O' or '0'. 'O' could be '0' or 'Q')
'1' could be 'I'
'U' could be 'V'

There might exist more...:o
