Alone in the Dark 5

The board says that after registration that you dont need the DVD, I bought the game, registered it, but still need the DVD to play, am I missing something ?, shame had so many negative responses to it, I spent 5 mins on it and had enough

I was looking forward to this one, but it seems there are quite a few bugs and the controls for the PC version are plainly bad. The highest review rating was around 7, the lowest was 3.5. So I guess I'm gonna pass on this one. I still have Mass Effect to finish on Hardcore and Insanity level,

Same here... I wasn't going to buy this game at first, but when I read that it didn't require the disk in the drive after installation and activation I bit the bullet and dropped the $50. I played a little of the game after insttall/activation while the disk was in the drive, then exited the game, removed the disk, and tried to start it up again. Here's what I got!!!

No disc inserted.
Please insert the original "AITD-RDVD" CD/DVD.


Like dragon66, I too am wondering if I am doing something wrong, or if the comments about not requiring a disk refer to the download version of the game (DUH, obviously no disk needed THERE!!! LOL).

I own this game and after you activate it you still have too have the disk in the drive to play it.The online activation does not remove the disk check,at least not the us version.

...OK... So, can a crack allow playing the game without a CD but still require the activation? I have no serious problem with a one-time on line activation, but of the THOUSANDS of games I have on CD and DVD, and using fixed-exe's, no-cd cracks, or disk images, there are only maybe 3 or 4 that I EVER have to put the disk in the drive in order to play.

And make no mistake - I OWN every last one of these games, to the tune of well over $20,000, and in NO WAY support or encourage any form of piracy! I simply want to be able to play any game I choose at a given moment without having to worry about looking for the disk among my massive collection, or worry about scratching or damaging a disk for games that I play frequently.

It seems that the statement on GCW's site under this game stating "This game does not require the DVD to be present after the game has been activated with a valid/legal serial. So a Fixed EXE is not needed!" should be qualified to NOT include the boxed version.

And OF COURSE the downloaded version of the game is NOT going to require a disk in the drive, since THERE IS NO DISK!!! LOL

any crack released will circumvent the activation process
thus, it will not be hosted here... there's no real workaround...

Bought the game and played for 15 mins... I did not like it... controls suck big time ( Thats the same reason I hated TRA ) and I got some flickering issues as well Planning to trade it for some other title...

A Fixed Image has been added but it has not yet been confirmed to work

Let us know if it does or not!

* Install the game - Full Installation.
* Mount the MI-AITD.MDS Mini-Image in DAEMON Tools v4.12.3.
* Set speed of the virtual drive to 1x using Nero DriveSpeed.
* Use an anti-blacklisting tool, like Y.A.S.U v1.3, to avoid blacklisting of DAEMON Tools.
* Play the Game!

wow, nero drive speed 1x.. first time i've seen that...
