    computer/game question

    I don't know much about Pc gaming and not even sure this is the correct place to ask.

    Let's say I borrow someones copy of Cod4 or Bad company for the Pc will I be able to make my own account or do I use theirs? An if I install the game on my pc and give them the game back will we both be able to play? Or do I need the disk?

    Almost all PC games that you play online will check the CD Key you enter when you register the game in order to actually play online. You'd be able to play Single Player (you'd need the CD, unless you got a no-CD hack) but if you tried to go online, only one of you could- it'll see one copy of that code online already, and won't let a second copy on.

    COD4 rank and shit is stored locally so there is no "account" exactly, BC I play on 360 so I don't know, but I've definitely played online on the same key simultaneously as a friend (not on a LAN game) for COD4
