Same bros. I've dashed it, uppercased, lowercased, everything. I even did this. xXxXx. Lol. Bungie! HALP!

The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again.

its the EXACT key from my CD case!

everyone above me has the same problem!

I'm glad bungie is starting this now so we get all the kinks worked out! :D

Does he look like a...?

I have tried the Caps Lock, all lowercase, dashes, and no dashes and my pc key code is still not in a valid format apparently. Why is it doing this?

  • 08.27.2010 1:14 PM PDT

Sounds like the PC Key validation is broken again. I'm getting the same problem as the several posters above me.

Already sent an Email to the Bungie Store Customer Service email that was provided, so I hope it gets resolved soon.

Where is John Galt?

The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again.


:/ Sorry to add to your list of questions and problems Sawnose but I've tried every dashes, no dashes, caps, etc. and I keep getting this message.

I tried on both Chrome and Safari if that matters any.


Edit: ^^^ looks like I'm not alone. That's a relief.

No recon for me. Didn't find Bungie on Bungie Day 09. At least the maps were fun.
Long live 7/7/09!

I put in my code from my Halo 2 PC box and I get the following message

"The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again."

It's entered just as it is on the Product Key sticker and is in the format of XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

Halo 2 PC doesn't work.

So, I'm not the only one having these "format" issues? Good. Hopefully it'll get sorted.

This is only for Halo: Combat Evolved, not Halo 2. There is no flair for Halo 2 Vista for PC announced.

Well, considering that Halo 2 Vista isn't Halo: CE PC, that would be your problem.

I am having issues. I found my Halo PC copy and put in the product key from the sticker on the cd case, and it said that it was invalid or the wrong format. I put them all caps with dashes and everything. Am i using the wrong format or something?

  • 08.27.2010 1:33 PM PDT

I input my key correctly with the dashes, but I'm getting the following error:

"The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again."

I know I played my key online before the cutoff date (Played a few times shortly after I bought it in I believe it was 2008).

Is my key messed up somehow? Or is the site not reading it correctly?

  • 08.27.2010 1:39 PM PDT

Well, got my new copy today, and now I'm getting the same invalid format error as everyone on this page. I will be eagerly awaiting the repair of this tool.

I also have the same problem as the rest of you guys. Invalid format for some reason. Fortunately it's not something crippling or important like the release date is being pushed back. Hopefully it gets fixed soon, but if it's not, oh well.

  • 08.27.2010 1:43 PM PDT

Format error :P

"The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again."

I have tried with and without the dashes, Caps, no caps. I've run out of ways to put this in and I'm still not successful. I don't seem to be alone, I'm glad you made this thread.

I hope this gets worked out soon! Don't want my roommate stealing my code later =p

  • 08.27.2010 1:57 PM PDT

"The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again." why?

  • 08.27.2010 2:11 PM PDT

Entered my key, with dashes, using both caps and no caps, and I always get this error:

"The key you entered is not in a valid format, check your key and try again."

I am having the same problem entering my Halo PC key just like the others above. I have tried several times making sure that I followed the correct format and entered in all the characters.

Also, I know that I bought the game brand new, so I'm not sure what is wrong?
