5$ for a pirate game? That's really stealing!

LOL
it says "Eastern Front", but the front and back pics don´t show any soviet tanks. Suspicious?

Is there a stamp on the back so you can´t steal it?

Did anybody else notice the "requires 1.5 free hard drive space" on the back?

If all four "expansions" and the original game only took up that amount of memory, it'd be a miracle!

>Is there a stamp on the back so you can´t steal it?
This is called the control holographic mark. It is issued to the distributor by government agency. It indicates that the disc is a licensed product. Most interesting is that the seller can stick this mark to any box, and the police will not be able to just confiscate CD. To recieve a mark,  distributor must have a contract with the owner of the materials.

I lold when read definition of this marks.
 "control mark need to fight piracy"

>Did anybody else notice the "requires 1.5 free hard drive space" on the back?
Probably they just copy-paste info from original CoH disc


Here i have mark for disc with 4 new CoD games. Seems mark is legal, but games definitely pirate.

Most likely not, THQ is sinking as it seems from the latest financial reports. So we can stick to our beloved mod but on the other hand the biggest question is-whoever will buy THQ/RELIC will keep the COH1 servers? If not then we are all doomed.

Well certainly they are going to be keeped online as they aren't that expensive because of peer to peer usuage in CoH1/DoW etc.

sorry to revive this semi dead thread, but, if the servers go down wont we just use hamachi, game ranger, gamespy comrade, or some other distro of this type?

Hehe yeah I remember this from Russia as well. You can buy anything practically anywhere. Cops don't care, and even if they did it's not like it would stop anyone over there.
