Ok. I bought the new Spore game, and it turns out that i kneed a dvd rom drive to play it. this was not shown on the system requirements, or any where. I had to call Coustomer Support just to find out why the fuck it wasnt working! i had a busy signal for thirty minutes! I want to get compansated for time and money, but i lost the recipt.

On the case it most likely said DVD-ROM... and if you don't have one it's time to update your compy ;)

That's not fail.

If it's a PC-DVD game, then why the fuck would it not require a DVD rom drive?

Yeah a lot of games on dvd now. It's easy to buy one off newegg and install a dvd drive.

I understant its an awesome game, the reviews told me that when i bought it! IT DID NOT TELL ME TO HAVE A DVD-ROM DRIVE!

I'm looking at the box right now and it clearly says dvd-rom on the cover. Right by the rating.

Ok people, heres more on the situation. my computer runs on XP and we got it in the month it came out. It did not have a DVD/Cd rom choice. I agree, it is time to upgrade to Mac, but this is america, in a resession...it means no extra money for computers...i am getting a mac when they next release updates.

OMFG

What does this have to do with having a Mac?

The requirement right on the box says you need a Windows or Macintosh computer and a DVD-ROM drive.
How are you still complaining? Seriously.

DVD drives are relatively cheap, it is generally a safe assumption that a computer capable of playing modern games will have one.

The fact that yours does not may indicate that it is deficient in more ways than just lacking a DVD drive.
