Officer Rex Bishop Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 So I picked up this game about a week ago, and I'm already so addicted that I'd like to have it on my work computer for my breaks. Problem being, it's such a piece of junk that it only has a CD player, not a DVD. Also, I can't download from Steam because I'm in Korea. Any answers here, other than getting a portable DVD player? Does SI have somewhere I can download it from, then input the CD key? I have the American Worldwide Soccer edition, if it matters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw640 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 If you wanted to download a version, you would have to pay again I believe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ftg87 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 AFAIK, the only way to install without the disc is via Steam, IIRC it can be purchased from Gamersgate, but I expect you will have to pay again Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Officer Rex Bishop Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Bummer. Maybe I can pop the DVD player out of my girlfriend's laptop and install it briefly . . . Thanks guys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
outlaw640 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Yeah that's probably your best bet, seeing as the game can be ran without the disc now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officer Rex Bishop Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Can I download from this thread via the Torrent and use my existing CD key? http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=84039 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavel Pogrebnyak Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 My advice to you would be, don't accept free meat off anyone, its probably Dog Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ediocy Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 If you wanted to download a version, you would have to pay again I believe Paying again is not required with Steam if you already own a boxed version of the game. If the game is available to you through Steam, you can just input your registration key and Steam will allow you to download it. Can I download from this thread via the Torrent and use my existing CD key?http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=84039 That is for Mac systems though. If your work computer is on Windows, that would be a no-go. Also, just out of curiosity, is Steam totally not available for use in South Korea? Or just that the game is not available with your region being selected as South Korea? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Officer Rex Bishop Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 If I try the "Buy Now!" option via Steam, I get this answer: Sorry!

But you did buy the boxed version from a South Korean retailer right? Or was it imported from off the internet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Officer Rex Bishop Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 My folks bought it off Amazon in the US and then sent it to me for Christmas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ediocy Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 My folks bought it off Amazon in the US and then sent it to me for Christmas. Ah ok, your best bet would be to get hold of a portable dvd-rom as mentioned earlier then. That will involve no more forking out of money on your part, unlike if you were to go down the Gamersgate route. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmfaria Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Just download any torrent you find. it can't be considered illegal as long as you have the original cdkey and activate it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ediocy Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Just download any torrent you find. it can't be considered illegal as long as you have the original cdkey and activate it Encouraging the downloading of illegal copies of the game is never a good idea on the official forums mate. Even if he already owns a legal copy, the very act of illegal downloading is inappropriate. Moderators do not take kindly to such suggestions too.

I own a legal copy as e does. I alway buy the game. I'm a moderator of an official SI affiliate forum and would never encourage piracy. he owns the game. he payed for it. he has the right to install and play in any computer he feels like. The torrent sugestion is just a tecnicality. Besides, I didn't (and never would) give any link to download it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like there is a Windows link too though? Anyway, if I get desperate enough I'll figure something out . . . thanks for the help guys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters76 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Are you sure that computer satisfy the minimal requirements to run the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
