So I finally picked up my copy of Crysis 2, took the night off, closed the curtains, phone on silent. Time to party.

But the validation keep BSing me about the date. Why do I have to wait till midnight to play a game a payed for, which is already fully installed and playable on my computer? Why release the game beforehand if nobody can play it anyway? This DRM business is getting out of hand.

How can I disable the activation so I can actually play the game I payed with my own hard earned money.

Well, no luck getting the game started. And seeing how the game turned out to be a dumbed down console port maybe it's for the best. Going to return the game and get Shogun 2 or Homefront.

I'm very dissapointed in you crytek, you gave PC gaming a new beacon of hope, and then you demolished it with this release. Shame on you.
