Hello, so I recently bought a HARD COPY of Dead Space 2, about 6 days ago. I installed it and everything seemed to work properly, until I stumbled upon a very frustrating issue: the activation code that came with the game did not work, I entered it like 20 times and the activation wizard simply displayed a window saying: "The serial you entered is invalid, please contact costumer support for blah blah blah". Because I hate relying on costumer support, I decided to reinstall the game from scratch. And it did not solve the problem whatsoever, the same window kept coming up and I couldnt do anything about it. So just today I returned to the store and had it replaced with a new copy, and I installed it again and entered the new serial and, as you may imagine, the same window popped up again. I really like this game and it would be a real shame if i had to get a refund simply because this new "system" for online activation that EA has developed is beyond obsolete and completely useless.
I have tried two different copies of the game and none of them work, so please would you be kind enough to tell me how to fix this problem? I am running out of patience. I tried entering the serial in this manner 0000-0000-0000-0000-0000 and like this 00000000000000000000 and none of them worked.
basically DICE and EA f**ked up big time with the release of dead space 2 and a few other titles. The best thing to do is try contacting customer and wait and wait and wait and wait until they "try" to help you but if you stumble across a quick fix let me know cause im still hopelessly stuck and like you i really want to play this game. Good luck and hope to hear from a response from you soon (hahaha cause thats what always happens)
