ich0902 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 yes you can do it via steam if you have the verification code from the booklet inside the boxed version that your friend has ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ich0902 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 dude, check the your system meets specs of the game, so many ppl are missing this ! also check for updates to your operating system, directx and also you might possibly need to uninstall previous versions of the game ! good luck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ich0902 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 lol, yeah jamie i scratched my head a bit 2 haha ! in my opinion, if you've got a boxed copy you're better off doin it without steam, i didn't want to be relying on steam as a lot of people are having probs with it !

Jamie543 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 nothing wrong with steam im using it had no problems what so ever all the problems are down to user not keeping their system updated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ich0902 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 yep you're right about updates ! but i personally prefer to not have to rely on steam, it worked fine for me with the demo ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
