A workaround seems to be to run it in Windows XP mode. This is what PlayOnLinux
does.

Since Steam itself is easier to deal with if using Windows 7 mode, I added an
application-specific setting for both deadspace2.exe and activation.exe to
exempt them and make them run in Windows XP mode. The activator now starts
(tested via terminal) and properly activates the game.
