Waste of time and money, the CD key given by Steam doesn't work to activate it via the SecureRom DRM. Just keeps giving me an invalid key error. Haven't even loaded the game up and I'm annoyed.

There's clearly a disclaimer on the front page stating that only the single player campaign works.
It's a funny arcade game from back in the Xbox 360 days!

This game is broken. Steam refers you to Capcom for support. Capcom supports then refers you back to Steam for support. Surprised Steam hasn't removed this game...

What could have been a fun game is ruined by the fact that most people cannot get the game to run. If you are lucky enough to play it, you won't be looting any towns with your friends because the Gamespy servers are offline...permanently. Better to save yourself from walking the plank with this mess before you find yourself in Davy Jones' Locker.

DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!
The game comes with SECUROM activation, requires a GAMESPY account and GAMESPY INSTALL for multiplayer, and can only be activated a limited number of times.
This game should not be on Steam. It is too laced with DRM.

Age Of Booty has SecuRom + limited times of activation, on top of the steam drm. Do I have to say more? Sadly I have seen it too late and hence threw one buck out of a window with buying this crap. Ah well.
Do yourself a favor and stay as far as humanly possible from this messy XBLA port of DRM loaded bs game. Ugh. (Or gift it to people on your friendslist you dislike during a steam sale. Whatever floats your boat xD Just do not ever -- and I mean NEVER EVER -- actually buy it in the intention to install it on your system to play it. Nope. Nope nope nope.)
TL:DR: If there would be a prize for the best combination of crappy, poorly done ports and intrusive (like registry deep) annoying, sh*tty drm for a game, Age Of Booty would win it. By far.

I buy a game on Steam, I expect to be able to install it as many times as I like, however with this game I found out it uses Securom and you have a limited number of third party activations. Once I got past all the cd-key entering BS (there's a screen where you can't copy & paste), I come to find out multiplayer doesn't work properly, was hoping they had fixed it by now.
Maybe I'll get lucky and it won't activate again if I uninstall it again.

This is a terrible port of a very fun XBLA/PSN game. No controller support or Steam matchmaking. No 1080p resolution either. poor poor poor

Can't play it cuz the code that steam gave me for the game doesnt work, Securcom says its steam, Steam says its not their problem, thats the code they were given; so i'm stuck with a game i bought from STEAM that i cant play - because STEAM can't resolve the issue.
Updated 6/3/15: @my couch... Yes, I was using the CD Key. SecureRom does not accept the CD Key given to me by Steam. I used both the "Copy to Clipboard" method as well as writing it down and keying it in manually to attempt to activate my game. Neither method work. I get the same Activation Failed issue. The SERIAL was not found in the database. Most likely the SERIAL has been entered incorrectly. I"ve contacted Steam - they say contact SecureRom - I contacted SecureRom, they say Steam gave wrong key.
I sent screenshots to Steam of my key and error pages and they say its a valid key, but neither company is willing to correct the problem. Honestly, I purchased this game from Steam, I expected them to either assist in fixing issue or refund my money so I can get the game off my library list (I was hoping to try to purchase/download a new version with a new code) but can't download another if it is in my library. So, no Age of Booty to play.
NOTE: by repeatedly downloading and trying to install this game, I've noticed that STEAM counts that as "Played" Time so my attempts today at trying yet again, added more time to what is displayed as Played. Be careful with that NEW STEAM REFUND: refunds only with < 2hours "Played" time.

Do not purchase. Hopefully you are reading this prior to buying the game and not after like I did. If you purchase this you wont be able to play it anyway. so even at $0.99 it is a waste of money. Burn the dollar if you want to get actual entertainment value out of it becuase you will not be able to play this game as the CD keys are mostly broken and you will spend hours of your time trying to get a dollar game to work only to have it not.
As the users her have said steam does not give 2 Sh*ts about the issues with their games and will keep on happily taking your money for a game that doesn't work and they will do nothing about it it. Being that they are too big to fail and one of the only viable options out there, F*cking over a small percentage of the community doesn't really matter to them as it wont have any impact.
So do yourself a favor, no matter how fun the game looks, don't purchase it, be sure to read reviews before you buy things and game on!
