activation key problem
« on: September 07, 2009, 04:08:43 PM »
Hi guys,
I just bought a DVD copy of the game for my son. My problem is that I cannot find the activation key.
Does anyone of you know where I can find it? The crapy mnual says in the box but I cannot find any key there.
My first copy was bought via Steampowered and then it automagically opened the browser and pasted it in.
Not so this time or maybe it tried but was blocked by Firefox and noscript.
Does anyone of you know how to find the activation key?

The one on my dvd copy was on a sticker in the box itself, just above the dvd. 25 characters as per usual these days.

I'd take it back to the vendor if there isnt a key...

To end the story. I picked up a new box today and it had a nicely visible sticker with the activation code inside the box.
