Just took the shrinkwrap and seal off of my new copy of Left 4 Dead, and there was no disk inside. This was a new copy, not used, and the seal was intact. Ever happened to anybody else?

No idea how im going to persuade the guys in the shop in to giving me a refund. :P

I dont think microsoft will do anything about it because once a store buys a game or games its their responsibility. some little pooner probrably opened it and took the game then tried to seal it back up. sorry to hear about that.

Honestly if you go to the store; and believe it or not be an a$$hole even if you are a nice guy. Just go with the mentality of getting your game exchanged and until they tell you otherwise be persistent. I went to blockbuster to get crackdown for 10 bucks so when I was leaving to buy the game i picked up the case with out looking(completely stupid I know) but i accidentally bought stanglehold. There was a no return policy on these games but my uncle got the game and was loud, not disrespectful but stern enough to get the point across and he got the game exchanged so yea. Your the customer you paid its there fault not yours, Be Mad!

Man, that sucks. One time I went to buy Doom3: Ressurection of Evil, and I could only find a used copy. I bought it and happily left the store. I drove all the way home(about 20 miles away). I opened the case and looked and it was just the regular edition of Doom3. It was useless cuz I already had the Collectors Edition of it so I went all the way back. When I got there they said that they were sorry and they gave me the right disc. I went back home put it in my Xbox and it could not read the disk lol. I kept the disc and I had to go all the way back to the Gamestop, return it and wait until they got a new copy. That sucked.

Wow, that's a kick in the balls. I hope your game store fixes it for you.

It's interesting you mention this. I bought Resurrection of Evil for PC, and while it had the disc, the manual did not have the CD key in it, making it un-installable.

I wish you luck. Just get them to see that it is possible that the disk did not get put in at the factory. Get them to see it from your perspective - you go to get a game and it is not in there now you have to convince them that it was never there.

You will probably have to give them your name and such so they feel comfortable you will not try the "same thing" again. I just hope you bought it from a big name store like Walmart or your screwed.

Something like this happened to me at Toys R Us with Bioshock when it first came out. I purchased a copy and when I got home and opened it, there was a blank CD-R in the case instead of the game. They looked at me like I was nuts when I took it back so I told them I wanted the next copy opened to make sure the game was inside. They opened 3 more copies and each had a blank CD-R. The 4th had the actual game.

I guess people are getting really good at opening the games and resealing them.

This happened to me with a link to the past on the gba. I was in the car with my ma when i decided to open to check out the manual and stuff, but the game wasnt there. I took it back to gamestop asap, and they gave me the game.

you know what it might actually be valves problem. there should be a number inside the manual.alot of the times there is aprocessing number for that unit and they might be able to trace it. the machine or person that put the game in could have made a mistake

Youll get it back, don't worry. Just get your point across, i mean really, why would you want 2 discs? Anyway, when i bought fable tlc for my PC, one of the discs had a giant gaping hole in it. Like it looked like someone took a pen and stabbed it right through the CD. Twas crazy, they exchanged it though.

Well it's common practice at gamestop to reshrinkwrap games. Did it have the sticker seals on the sides? I bought Brothers in Arms (new) for PS3 it was already opened, got home opened the case and saw a second disc in a white sleeve tucked under the game manual. Traded in the game and kept the one in the sleeve LOL. Bought it when they had the $20 deal going on and got $20 trade credit so my copy just cost tax LMAO.

One of my friends bought Madden 07 and when he unwrapped it Nascar 07 was inside. He had a tough time getting the store to believe him but they eventually gave him a refund.

When I had my PSP, i got Twisted Metal Head On. And right when i got into my moms car, i opened it, and no UMD. So we went back in, and they gave us a new Twisted Metal. And it was from Best Buy.
