For a brand new game this is a pisser. I had a similar issue when I bought the Medal of Honor 'Warchest' edition and ended up solving it in the same way as COD2 (see below).
I have since remedied this by downloading and installing files to run the game without the disk... but really I should not have to do this on a new game.
Has anybody else got the same problem with this game, if so did you get it fixed to work correctly?
I'm speculating that there might be some sort of conflict between the copy protection on various games I have installed- maybe the SF drivers on SH3 and Sniper Elite 2 are interfering somehow?
Failing that there's something else amiss.

Yeah - I almost bought this game but had to check the copyprotect 1st. Turns out to be Safedisc, so it is OK. One thing that bothered me is their disclaimer on the outside of the box that says it may not work in all drives!!! Did you see that?
Andway, do what I did to make sure everything works - go out and buy yourself a crappy Sony DVD-ROM drive (non-burner) for about $20 - It will not have a problem with anything!!! It is one of the 3 drives in my sys.
