PRiME, by not allowing any activity that can be related to warezing (read: activity that can be related to illegal copies of software), GCW is _exactly_ trying to be legal. If you have a legal copy of a game, then - depending on in which country you live -, it might be your goddamn right to have a backup of the software and even use it for daily work/gaming. This is accomplished by no-CD patches and other stuff.

However, you said you don't have the original CD anymore. From that moment, you don't have a legal copy of the game, therefore, no one is supposed to help you on this forum. If you don't understand this, it's your problem; just keep quiet, to save your face.

(Why am I wasting time to educate someone who can only spit **** from his mouth, anyway...?)

The original DVD is broken mate, also GCW can never be legal esp when they link to warez sites etc..

You will find the infomation I requested is nothing but registry data that is not related to warez at all in any way,. Now I should have said I didn't want the cdkey as I have my own ok.

Your attempt to ban me is amazing when just about every second person on this thread is talking about illegal copying this game. Just astonishing.



PS. I think we should leave this topic alone, next time I will try not to mention that my CD is broken and I no longer have it (due to it being run over by chair) least that way it will be legal, .! LOL

PRiME, one by one...

If your original DVD is broken, contact the game publisher for another copy, at a reduced cost.

Registry data can be collected by (re)installing the game; you don't need our help for that. (Provided that you have the original CD/DVD, that is.) No-CD patches, on the other hand, don't grow on trees, that's why GCW hosts them.

Other people, who talk about warezed copies of games, will (also) be banned.

You don't have to _agree_ with the forum rules - yes, they _are_ strict! -, you "only" have to adhere to them. If you don't like them, well, you might be banned soon anyway... Also, no one cares about whether you like the forum rules or not. Those people who A) host this forum and/or B) answer questions are doing all this free of charge, therefore, you cannot _expect_ anything on this forum; rather, be grateful, if you _do_ get some help.

I still don't quite grasp what is so complicated about this forum that you don't understand...

I wanted to play the game now not in 2 weeks & $20 or more later.

But thanks to friends I have this problem resolves so don't waste your time debating how much of a bad person I am.

As an Australian myself i am extremely embarrassed about 2 things!
1. Prime is a bad example of a True Aussie!
2. And he doesnt even know how to spell his own countries name! Shame!

Your stay here Prime will surely be a short one!

Ok well I figured I come back and say sorry, it is true I didn't read the rules. And I mis-typed Australia.

Guess I'm breaking the rules even coming back & saying sorry, still cd-cracks believe it or not are still considered illegal by many software companies whichever way you slice it

This being said I went into this thread on a ignorant ideal that based on this infomation the forums would be pretty loose on this type of discussion, I stand corrected
