When i try to install it it says that I do not live in the US, but I do. I checked my account and the zip code and the country are correct.

same problem here... in fact i made a thread about it... right above yours... oops :S

same here I live in Mass US and it claims I don't live in the US.. lol I have a US ID that says differently but glad the far cry installer thinks im not even though I put US and the correct zip code as my info in my account info.. maybe only certain parts of the US get it.. the rest of us are foreigner according to ubi?

It wouldnt be an mis-configured regional setting on your PC would it?

IE:
You may have it set to something other than US, and maybe the installer is looking at that? (it may be reading your browsers accept-language information when you visit the registration page - "en-gb" for UK, "en-us" for US, etc)

You can check your accept-language here to rule my conspiracy theory out:

Ignore the above, check out SOFWID99's post here for the reason:

So I just spent all night downloading this for nothing?


Awesome.

Great job UBI! 3 hours downloading a game for nothing.

I have a slow connection... took me 3 days to download it, for nothing. Ubi just shoot its own feet. Will never ever download anything from ubi again.

Ubisofts official position on this issue is below:

The Ubisoft promotion allowing gamers to download and play the ad-supported PC games Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Far Cry, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon and Rayman Raving Rabbids for PC was a promotion designed exclusively for the US market over the Labor Day weekend. The promotion has now closed and consequently the hosting of files is no longer recommended.
