Ok this was me couple of days ago!!!

"Hmm i think im going to buy that game Area 51, sound like a real good game from what ive heard of the reviews and all"

Today!

"God damnit this piece of ****** work wont start!!!"

Ok so i bought the game yesterday, came home, relaxed, turned on my computer, made myself a cup of cofee, installed the game. Clicked on the inviting Area 51 icon, the game started....THE HELL IT DIDNT!!, i click the icon but nothing happens. I tried with patches, cracks (only cause nothing else seemed to work) the pathches only occured an error message. I mean and there is nothing to it, so here i am now with a game original that dosent work, sadly noone accept returns nowadays and the money is spent, i know there are people in this forum writing about the same problem to. I mean...COME ON MIDWAY....we have spent money supporting youre company, and the only thing you do is redirecting us to sites that cannot be accessed, beg us to give in our system information and other ****. My system specs. are the following.

AMD Athlon XP 1.8GhZ
1024MB Twinmos DDR400 Class 3
GeForce FX 5900 (ASUS by the way)
Samsung spinpoint 120GB (Memory Free 80GB so that cant be it!)
Soundblaster Audigy 2.0

That should get the game going now shouldnt it?!!

Well i sure hope you guys at midway is working on a patch and sure as hell look into this forum once in a while cause there are some pissed off dudes here just wanna play!

Check the sys req. yourself boy! and by the way, a computer should be able to start the game up, even if the computer isnt 100% met to the sys req. ok not if its a very old computer like Pentium 2 233Mhz=)

But for now im not bying any game from midway anymore, StarForce protection = Virus!
