South Park stick of truth PC

It was pre-owned and I forgot about the whole need a Steam activation code thing they do now. I tried the code and it says duplicate code, so I've got a game I can't play!. However I didn't lose too much so it's not a big deal. Is there a way to just play it from the DVD? since not too concerned about playing online etc, but I assume you need the code to install from disc?, thanks.

Pretty sure you do need the code. You might be able to get a crack for it though.

OK thanks Zoidy. Will see if it installs from disc first then go from there. If it asks for a Steam code I guess it's a no go.

That's one game I would have actually brought.. But it got censored here, so instead of $80 it got fucking nothing.. Good thing it's really easy to pirate :owink:
It's a shame too, because no one deserves my money more than Matt and Trey.
here's hoping the fractured but whole doesn't meet the same fate so they can get the money they so rightfully deserve.

Yea in some countries they have censored the game and removed scenes from it, the PC version in Europe (apart from Germany) isnt censored, but the console versions are. I think only the North American versions are censor free. Going to try and see if I can get it working but not sure I will be able to because the steam codes inactive so I'm guessing it won't run install from the DVD disc.

I traded in my PS3 controller into the local used CD place and got a PS4 controller back.

The only problems are a few scuffs and the rubber grips are gone from the thumbsticks. But I got two on order for $5!

It looks good, Don't think I've ever played it though. Thankfully the PAL version is about a quarter of the price of the NTSC one.

It's one of my favourite SNEz shoot 'em ups, not as flashy as something like Axelay, but it's a super solid blaster.

Hold on a second, is that a potential hidden gem i hear, thundering around the corner?
