Halo.. on a LAN.

Me and my friends wanna play Halo on a LAN. For some odd reason why all have to have different CD-Keys to play. I was wondering if theres any other way around this so we dont have to use different cd-keys.

Thanks.

gay reason.....please dont use that type of language on a pretty much family site.

Its obvious its like that so everyone has to buy the game to play.


Even though there are ways none can be described on this website as its cracking and is agaisnt what you agreed to when buying the game.

I think its pretty stupid that everyone has to buy the game to play on a LAN. I agree everyone should have a legitimate copy and cd-key to play online but not on a LAN.

Thanks for your reply.

THeir goal is to make mone

Although, i agree, i think that they should do something like blizzard did with starcraft, let you spawn it on other computer, you could play onlne with that "spawn" version only if you were with the person taht actually had a cd key.

They are really starting to crack down on this and I don't blame them. Its the same idea as installing an OS. One copy per machine. Simple as that.
