I have tried many times as lots of games had me severely dissappointed and I was disgusted with them. I tried taking them back the next hour and no luck. From then on I learned to try the games from Piratebay first and make my xbox allow backup games. This way when the game actually lives up to its hype I gladly buy it. If it sucks, I can always get the space back on my hard drive for free :)

Perhaps it's a location thing. When Homefront came out I had it reserved, took it home and played for about an hour (used the online code) and hated it more than spiders. I took it back the same day and they gave me a full refund. Apparently I wasn't the only person who had returned the game the same day because the game blows so much.

Mind you, I picked it up after work so the server issues were fixed by then. I just hated the game.

Again, this.
I've never had a problem returning anything. They're pretty good about returns. Possibly because one of the stores is right next door to Wal-Mart, which accepts ALL returns.

sucky games are par for the course these days. that's why i almost never buy new. not worth it.

wait 18 months for a GOTY edition & you'll pay less anyway.

welp, great way to piss off their only loyal customers. i don't think a lawsuit needs to happen, they seem to be doing a great job putting themselves out of business.

I'm not a gamer by any means, but I have been to gamestop...

And I thought you guys were smart. GameStop absolutely rapes people... even I know that.

If you expect money for a trade in, yeah.
There are some things you just don't do. Trading in games is one of them.

Especially when you can sell them for $15 each at a garage sale.

so, went to register the NCAA i mention above tonight with the internet code that comes with it so i can do online play as well and guess what! The code that the employee put in the case with the game isnt an NCAA code! Its a code for Madden!

Employee didn't put the code in there, EA did.
If you're going to point fingers, point them in the right direction.

you should probably think before you post.. they empty the cases for the floor so nothings stolen short of a case if someone takes the case.. Which means... THE EMPLOYEES REMOVED, AND PLACED THE CODES BACK IN THE CASE..
