Would you know if keys bought from this site are US/ENG only or if european langages may be available as well? I would buy Mass Effect 2 from there if I know that it would deliver a french (or international) version from the EA manager.

Usually when you activate a key in EADM it ask you which language you want. So as long a french version was released of ME2 you should have the option.

Thanks for your reply, I may have a go then. EADM needs to run to be able to play right? I've heard it's an horrible software but seems like there is little choice there.

no, EADM doesn't need to run in order to play the game. It's only needed for downloading and installing the game.

EA Download Manager is for downloads only. You don't need to have it open when you play at all.

EADM it is not only a download manager :)

It is copy protection also. If you delete your EADM cache, then you have removed your copy of the game and you have to re-register :)

EADM needs improvement, true but it's okay, no bad experience with it.

To play or not to play – what question is that?!

what? i always clear my cache after installing the game, and i don't have to re-register it. Even now i cleared the cache of BFBC2 and nothing happened – the game works perfectly. I think clearing cache means just deleting your installation files, which are not needed anyway if the game is already installed.

yes, that cache can be cleared

but there is another cache, under program data (or wherever it's in xp:))
ie: C:ProgramDataElectronic Arts

There are cache prefs, licenses etc.

Bottomline is, that you don't need to have EADM running you just have to install game with it, and it creates license file under EA ServicesLicense.

After downloaded and decrypting the you can actually backup the cache files. So you don't have to re-download if you want reinstall later or install on an other computer.
Just look for a setup.exe to start the installation.

Thanks again for the updated informations.

I bought a mass effect 2 on direct4drive and still waiting for my key. I received 3 e-mails to let me know that my order was "queued", then "processed" and then "completed" but still nothing. I filled a ticket and I am waiting for something to happen. Does not look great thus far but we'll see.

Damned you were right! I love you man.

Since their first 3 messages were not tagged as spam why on earth would the one containing the key be so? Well anyway… Will wait this evening to try to download it.

Is this site legit? Where do they get their keys from? Also, what if a key doesn't work or gets banned?

As far as we can tell the site is legit and everything they sell works. But we cannot assure if you could get banned or not (it's not really up to D4D I think).

Thanks for the reply.  What I meant is, what if the key gets banned without you doing anything that is worthy of a ban (i.e using hacks or what not)? Do they refund you like G2Play/Gamekeydistrict or offer you another key?

Thanks!
