I downloaded the 1.08 patch for my North American retail version of the game, then patched it...long story short you click the icon/shortcut/play it thinks... it stops...and that about sums it up. I 've read the other threads, and even downloaded a shortcut icon provided by some site (Which I forget at the moment) it purpose is to prevent the start up issue. In the end it told me I was missing some DLL, which I had someone send me the DLL that was claimed to be missing and I replaced it. Turns out the file was already there...so I continued to replaced it anyways. I would provide that DLL name but then again I deleted the whole game..whats the point if it cant run? Is there an alternate fix available? I previously ran the game without any flaws or problems on an XP based computer....until 1.08 was released. Im not the kind of person to complain about any PC game....I couldnt care if it was full of bugs...or if it ran horribly, instead it dosnt run at all. Here I sit thinking of what I could of done or spent $50 on. As long as the money sits in the companies account...who cares about the consummer after. I must say I'm very disappointed with this game.

A) Return it to your local best buy location...purchase a game that is'nt a pos. Or B)Toss it in a Trash receptacle. An Option C)If you find yourself extremely bored or fed up...theres always $50 frisbee, skeet shooting is a possibility just remember safety first.

Yes, I've looked at the other methods yet they seem complicated with little or no results. As for the start up soon as you click the shortcut/play, etc...the cursor apprears as an hour glass for 3 to 4 seconds and then it returns to normal.
