I cant play this game online with the club key. Everytime I enter my key, it accepts it, then says an update is required. I update it, restart game - it wont boot (asks for DVD). So I copy the razor crack over again. Then asks for me to update. So obviously the update is removing the crack files and replacing them.

Any idea how I can play this game while staying 'online' and not have to update every time?

Full crack or just the required files?

Razor and Reloaded both use the disc version that installs the game data minus launcher and game EXE files (And those live cert files.) however for the crack to work you only need the .dll (Either 1911.dll or Rld.dll) and the launcher EXE, if you use Reloaded's version they also require a copy of the original launcher.exe (Or the patched one, doesn't matter.) named "launchero.exe" as they hook to that file.

I got it working by just replacing the "Bioshock2Launcher.exe" file after the update in both the SP and MP folders. I did not copy over all the crack files. It does not ask for an update anymore.

So now I can play ONLINE in both SP and MP.. Yaahhhh!! I am using the Razor release.

I tried a games for windows key from a game I own called "Section 8". When i tried to enter the key to play bioshock online it said "the product key you provided is not valid for your game".

I also tried another games for windows game I own.

What am I doing wrong? or am I just misunderstanding something?

Does the key have to be unused or not tied to any account? Does it have to be a key from the game "The Club by Sega"?

Can i use the same key over and over for each new games for windows game, or will it only allow it to be used once?

helpppppp Smile

Section 8 has a unique key. There are 2 games, I think, that have unique keys and cannot be used in the traditional "Sega Key" method. Section 8, unfortunately, happens to be among them. Sad
