RPS has some impressions.
Sounds fun, but frustrating (they say that things can feel luck based at times and that the physics can get a little funky).
I like blowing things up and the trailer looks enjoyable. I'll probably pick it up when it's $5 or less.

I have a morbid curiosity in it. Every time I see it on sale I think "maybe the internet was wrong/being ironic and it is awesome" but I can never push myself to actually buy it.

I bought the first Call of Juarez game a couple of days ago and every time I launch it I get "Your Serial Number is incorrect. Please reinstall The Call of Juarez." There is no CD key. I tried Googling the problem but didn't find any answers. Any one else run into this?
I spent like an hour yesterday in Magicka fiddling around casting spells just outside the starting castle area after the first act. Very interesting spell casting system.
Suicided like a dozen times by accident, and killed the guy down by the training dummies (couldnt rez him
) game is fun, but Im hesistant to continue, the spell system feels so clunky to me, on controller and on keyboard. I cant seem to speed up my reaction time much at all.

I would say to try reverifying your game cache integrity in Steam, then trying Steam support, and/or maybe Ubi support. If it's on your Steam account someone should be able to verify and help you with it, I would think.

I think one my friends used macro's online to speed up spells, but button smashing works like 80& of time.

That's more or less true for every physics based puzzle game ever made. Even Boom Blox.Traumahound said:

Verifying didn't help and neither did a crack. I did find some info on a torrent about editing a registry.exe in the game folder but I don't have that. And someone else says to edit the setup.reg file which I don't have in there either. I guess I'm going to have to deal with Steam support. :-(

No, it's just saying that it's incorrect.
I found this in a comments section:
FOUND THE PROBLEM FOR ALL 64 BIT OS USERS!!!! this version is for 32 bit SO you need to edit the setup.reg file (rightclick - edit) and change the line:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Techland\CallOfJuarez]
to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Techland\CallOfJuarez]
aas the registries for this game need to be within the wow6432 node.
How do I go about doing that?
You need to run regedit, the Windows registry editor. You should probably make a backup of the registry using regedit if you're not familiar with it, however. You only want to make the change it describes, not change other stuff.LastWindow said:
*edit* You know what, I might just try to download the game myself on Windows 7 64-bit and see if I have an issue. If not, I'll try to look at what the registry has. I think I have it on Steam -- definitely got the second one.

Awesome, I got it working. What I did was opened regedit, found the Techland/Call of Juarez directory, exported, opened that file with Notepad, changed what was inside, saved, ran it to update the registry and now the game works.
This is what I copied:

Oops.
Hopefully this thread is more helpful: Anyone know if there's a common/easy fix to Dead Space 2 going black when changing resolution/v-sync settings?
Even though my DS 2 config shows 1920 * 1080 as the resolution, it's booting up at 1024*768 and completely hangs at 100 percent CPU usage (and monitor goes black) whenever trying to apply a change to the graphics settings.
P.S. Origin is not making a very positive first impression. WTF do I need to enter a Dead Space 2 serial key? Hello? EA title running from EA client? Ah, yeah, how bout you know what my key is? This program is beginning to look like it's worse than I feared.

Everything in that quote I got from a comment elsewhere. According to the person who posted it, the game doesn't actually use the key it just needs to see one there. The comment is a couple of years old so I'm sure it's been used many times already.

By the way, can I get banned from Steam if I'm using cracked files? Or should I launch outside of Steam?
I'm not pirating anything, I just have the cracked files from before when trying to get the game working.

You can get banned from multiplayer, depending on the anti-cheat detection.LastWindow said:

I had the same problem and I think I was finally able to set the resolution correctly by doing it in windowed mode first. Also, be aware that DS2 is not auto-updated by Origin. You have to manually download the patch yourself.1-D_FTW said:

Fucking dandy.
So I initially tried changing the windowed mode in the config. But the game doesn't actually read the config, so that was SOL.
I could change it to windowed mode and 1080P in-game, but if I then try and go full screen, it's back to the black screen.
So I went back to windowed and tried applying the patch. Except it's not a traditional patch (that I can tell). It's just an .exe. If I click on it, the one CPU goes back to 100 percent and my monitor goes black.
Not a problem. I'll just swap the patched .exe for the original .exe. WRONG! Can't move those .exe's around. Even to second hard drive. Any attempt at copying them yields a short cut and nothing more.
So I'm out of ideas and SOL. Serves me right. I don't know why I never learn about buying EA games.

I had a weird problem with Dead Space 2 when I got it off of Steam. I started playing it and none of the video or audio logs would play when I picked them up. There was also dialog that was happening during the game that wasn't playing either.1-D_FTW said:
When I checked the file integrity on Steam it downloaded another 2GB it had missed that included everything else. So for the first hour of the game I got almost none of the story stuff outside of the in-game cutscenes.
