Must say im impressed with its steam implementation.
It asks me to install some useless gamespy chaff on every load, and keeps looping at the CD Key screen. Spot on.

Ace, Rumors are its caused by SecureROM, which has been affected by the PSN outage.

Thanks for that, figured I wasn't the only one!

the OP already has. and like most people, he can't play it because of a **** up with the activation servers.

Indeed I noticed. Just felt the need to reinforce it for anyone else who hadn't yet got it at such a price

Bought it also. Too good of a deal to miss.

FFS, I'm a sack of fail.

Well Dead Space is the current reduction, and later today we get to see the final day of discounts.

Annoying that there's no proper fix for this CD-Key issue yet.

I bought it too and after sitting reading the Steam forums wondering if the issue would be fixed quick I just followed other people and did the EA live support chat thing... simple and got a new key..

Shouldn't have to do that though.. I hope they got it sorted by now.

Yeah I considered doing that but the one time I tried there was a masive queue and I don't want the key to be separate from Steam anyway. I'll give it until I get home from work today and if there's still no luck I'll be sending a strongly-worded email to Valve. That'll learn 'em!

I enjoyed crysis. Worth every bit of £2.50 and more.

You can run it at fairly high settings with that PC also. I'd guess max, but not with much AA.

I've had warhead for ages, didnt like the gameplay it bored me.

Is it worth trying the original crysis as I heard its less action, more roaming around, which sounds better.

marc2003 · 9 May 2011 at 12:05

ea/valve have now fixed the activation problem. about time too.

Yup.

I also heard that WH was made to perform better than Crysis, will I struggle to run Crysis therefore?

Brumboy · 9 May 2011 at 13:25

This isn't £2.50 anymore?

I was just about to buy it.

A site is selling Crysis and Crysis: Warhead for £15 though, but I'd prefer to buy Crysis for £2.50, anyone know if the offer is going to be back?

Jumblejug · 9 May 2011 at 13:46

It was part of the EA sale on Steam, so it might not be back for a while

One of the high street retailers has the maximum edition for £7.99, and the other has it as part of a 2 for £15 deal.
