When I said "your policies" I obviously ment your companies. You may say you know your companies policies, and that's fine. But as I've said before, how do these policies hold up in court.

Thank you Bun-Bun. Exactly what I was trying to put across. Ofcoarse you don't deserve refund if you've bought something that simply doesn't run on your system.

Oh and about your poor store loosing 50 bucks cause you've refunded a customer, that's something YOU will have to take up with your supplier.

Yes Ergates, you are right. It is PURE speculation on my side. But I thought my post made that pretty clear.

Thank you Zippy. :)

From what I've read indeed this "rootkit" apparently doesn't hide files but registry keys. In any case, it's software that interferes with Windows at a very low level, if not...

Anei,

You're not making things any easier for the frustrated MAJORITY who bought this DEFECTIVE POS, by telling everybody their PC is crap.

As I've said above, I have several links to (respected) site that say it IS a rootkit. Besides, if it's software that's hidding files from Explorer, to me, that's a root kit.

Also, you mixing up...

Noooooo, I'm damned. I have no life anymore. I've let a game pass by. The world has come to an end. Thanks for pointing that out. :p

And I'm not 75 :P.

I'm not focussing on copy protection. You've lost track through all the noise. It's the fact that some software vendor is hijacking my PERSONAL computer. That's what this...

2K and Sony are making quite a name for themselves. Well done chaps.

Yeah, you do that sonny. Focus on playing games and let the world slip by. It's rather obvious you haven't graduated from High School yet. Don't you have homework to do?

@ Arterio,

What a load of nonsense. I had my wallet in the hand ready to go and buy this game. I am not against copy protection, mind you. But it's these kind of protections schemes that I will...

@ Harvey,

Great post. I agree. Amen.

Several days is nothing. Look at the StarForce proteced games. That protection scheme is possibly worse / better (depending on how you look at it) but it got cracked eventually.
