Very funny indeed ,
As it goes i have actually bought RA2 Twice .... 1st Time i got bored (yr wasnt out yet)and sold it . 2nd Time our house got broken into and my computer was stolen along with RA2.
So i didnt buy it a 3rd time , But if you and the majority of your community will not help me that is fine .
But please no nobby comments / sarcasm / pisstaking.
We can't help you if the problem is crack-related because we don't use cracks, nor do we devote time to figuring out problems that arise from using cracks.
Most problems encountered while using cracks arise as a direct result of using cracks.
No excuse is going to wash with us.
"I sold the game." Well you didn't make a loss then did you? You got money from selling it that you thought was appropriate.
Okay, so your house got broken into. My condolences to you. But that's not an excuse to pirate the game. Your home insurance should cover such losses.
Obviously you replaced your computer, so a single game shouldn't be too much of a stretch.
Red Alert 2 costs [in the UK] a mere £5.
In the US it probably costs about $10.
Regardless of where you live, you can buy online for a similar price (provided it's from a reputable retailer).
