The other day I was in a Large City with 80 dollars itching in the back of my pocket.

I see a Game Crazy and I think, "Hell yeah, time to blow some money."

Now I have never been in a Game Crazy before, and when I got in and looked arround, I was happy to find

a nice selection and low prices.

If you will allow me to quick dragging this out, I bought the game Rainbow Six Vegas 2, later looked in

the case to find a copy of Quake 4, had to drive back to Game Crazy, The clerk apologized and gave me

the correct disc, I was about to let it go right there, but I drove home (a 16 hour drive) back to Michigan

to put the disc in excitedly and find that it dosn't work. Game Crazy is to blame for raising my blood pressure.

Well then that would be one inept clerk, it happens.

Why would you buy a used game and not look at the disk? Twice

A total of 32 hours? Plus he went there and back 2 times, so 64 hours? He might be a little overestimating

He didn't go twice genius, he probably saw the Quake disc like 15 minutes after leaving the store :P And I can imagine buying a game in another city when you're on vacation or just a day away visiting another place.

Wow, just wow, but all I can say is when you buy anything used, ask to see the disc first, if they refuse you to walk away, when I go to a place like Game Crazy or Gamestop I check first thing to make sure it is the right game, and that the disc is in good condition without any major scratches, if it is I ask them if I can have another disc if available, if no more is available I just cancel my purchase, better not to waste your money on a scratched game only to find out that it doesn't work when you take it home, especially a long ways from home like this guy.

If I was you, I would just return it, 16 hours is a long way for a game that doesn't run, complain and get your money back and use it for something else or buy a used version from a local used gamestore, if it breaks just drive a short distance. :p
