yeah, this worked for me. all the way up until they updated. steam caught on right when i was trying it. now, before they automatically update, they check your CD key again.
i have 3 emails from them. all say the CD key is in use. nothing about the feds on my back. freakin sweet.
I WAS SO CLOSE to having it... ah well. Halo 2 it is.

lmao, you deserve it War!! The more games we keep trying to get for free, the more the game companies have to charge. GRRRRR!
Ok, that is my morality lesson for the day and I did my good deed. However, personally I dont care about people downloading, I would do the same if not for this massive angel on my shoulder. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

That angel on your shoulder convinced you to let me borrow your lighter, thus saving me from not having a cigarette. Thus, I approve of that angel. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

That's the big detriment of being a public figure. Even if you /weren't/ a morally good person, which I'm sure you are (right?), your visibility would make it rather difficult to participate in *ahem* illicit activities. Sometimes it's a little tempting to see those torrents, but I'm sure /none/ of us would go after Halo 2, right? Respect Bungie, yeah? Please?
Anyway, I don't think you're going to find much support for pirating on a game industry enthusiast site, War.

i wasn't looking for sympathy per se. i was showing people something to look out for. i got red flagged. it doesn't mean you have to.

Well to each his own that is for sure, but if it makes you feel any better I dont download music for free either. Of course I dont lecture my roomates of freinds for doing it either, lol. Maybe that WAS because I am in a public view, who knows. I will have to analyze my motivations for a while. http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/784.gif

The only company I could ever pirate software from without feeling any guilt at all is EA. Mainly because they're the Wal-Mart of games.
And aww, you're such a sweetie, Val.

To be upfront tho, I dont care that other people do it, but I dont even download free music. However, I dont lecture my friends about it either, so I will have to contemplate my motivations. It could be very well that I am a public profile here. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_eek.gif

A.) Run the stop light without changing speed.
B.) Relase the gas and coast through the light.
C.) Briefly stop then proceed to run the light.
D.) Stop at the light because you are afraid you will get caught- dont those police hide?
E.) Stop because it is the law. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

At the State of the Industry panel at PAX, EA was quoted as the Microsoft of games, making a sub-par product that appeals to the masses. http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
