It turns out I may only be able to activate it over the web 3 times (i’ve used 1 already, will need to use the 2nd if I install it again because I formatted) then I have 1 shot left… after that I’ll have to do it by phone and get charged some premium fee (probably $2.50/min) to be on the phone with them.

When I buy a game I expect a game I can install every day if I want to and not have to pay extra to do so. I also expect to know about all these “extras” BEFORE I buy the game. What’s the point of finding out after, when I can’t get a refund.
