balaban Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 precisely. it's not wrong. you just have to wait until 00:01 GMT November 14th before activating it. before that you'll just get "wrong code" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
reflection22 Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 It seems to be all European peeps getting the game early for some reason... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leminence Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 But why do they sell the game if we can't activate it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abs_UK Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 But why do they sell the game if we can't activate it? I dont think a lot of shops are aware of the activation system for FM09 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
balaban Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 But why do they sell the game if we can't activate it? Because they want to make money by selling it before other stores. It's illegal, and they may be sued for it. Not you though, you won't have any legal trouble. You'll just have the game and not be able to play it....which sucks. The only thing you can do is use the editor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nene_Park_Faithfull Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 But why do they sell the game if we can't activate it? More money, those that have it on sale first, will naturally make the most early sales. Basic business. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davestu Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 But why do they sell the game if we can't activate it? They shouldn't be selling it. You shouldn't have been sold the game until the 14th Nov. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bongo-Bongo Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I dont think a lot of shops are aware of the activation system for FM09 Whether the shops know about the activation or not, they couldn't care less. All they are worried about is getting their hands on as much money aspossible, and releasing the game earlier then they are allowed to is a sure fire way of doing so.

trekman Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 It's illegal, and they may be sued for it. I dont think anyone will get sued because its not the first time that a Football Manager product has been sold early. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leminence Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 it's a shame though, because a can bet that the game is about to be available for illegal downlaod and with a fake keygen activator. SI game has noyhing to win by doing such a thing. However, let's wait the 14th of november! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmywils Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 The retailers dont give a monkeys if you can play the game or not. They've got your money. Thats what its all about Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abs_UK Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 I wonder if people made a very big fuss about this, would the retailers give the game to you for free i wonder? threaten them that you will report them unless they give your money back.. Worth a try Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
