Re: Need for Speed: Underground 2

I want to buy a copy of Need for Speed Underground 2

However, I cannot find the game in Steam or Origin, nor can I find the game at EA.com

I found the original game (physical CDs) available at Amazon for a reasonable price, but my gaming laptop (Lenovo Y70) does not have an optical disc drive, so I need a digital download.

If I purchase the retail game from Amazon, will I be able to redeem the product code for a digital installation through Origin?

I would really like to avoid having to purchase a USB optical disc drive.

Thanks!

    @Giffyguy Yes, buying a retail copy of the game and then redeeming the code on Origin in order to download it will be possible! Have fun with the game. 🙂

    @EA_Nils Thanks for the info. However I tried this and it doesn't seem to work.
    I purchased a hard-copy of Need For Speed Underground 2 from Amazon on CDs, and tried to redeem the serial number in Origin, but it told me "The product code you entered is not valid."

    I tried both with and without hyphens.

    I also tried to redeem the code at Origin.com, but received the same message "The product code you entered is not valid."

    What am I doing wrong?

    Am I using the wrong code? I just found the serial number on the manual inside the CD case.

    Is this game too old to be downloaded using Origin?

    How can I install and play the game without a CD drive?

    Thanks in advance!

    P.S. looking at my manual, it appears I received the European edition of the game, even though I live in the USA.

    Will this be a problem?

    Thanks again!
