Okay, so I borrowed my friend's PS2 for a few days so I could run my games. As I mentioned in the last thread, I bought Silent Hill 3 and SH4 from a shop recently. Both discount from the same shop. Try to put SH3 in, no luck, PS2's dead. Okay, borrow a friends. Great, it works.
Play that for a few days. Alright, I'm going to start SH4 now, I know the plot will probably be a little screwy, but the change of pace will be nice.
*open SH4 box*

...okay.

See, nowadays, when you advertise a game in a shop, generally accepted practice is to PUT THE FRIGGIN' GAME IN THE BOX.

THERE IS NO GAME IN THE BOX.

Now how am I supposed to play a game I spent about £20 when THERE IS NO GAME IN THE BOX, if anyone has any ideas? >_< >_< >_<

Okay, so I can just get it fixed by going in next week (closed for the holidays, the owner probably has a kid and is going on holiday with him/her or something) and asking for 1) The damn game or 2) My money back, but still, it's just annoying.

Rant over. *mutter* Honestly, is this just a sign that SH4 is not worth my time to play, or what? Has this happened to anyone else? I know I'll be able to get something out of it, but it really is irritating.

Aw, that sucks. That's like buying a shirt and the salesperson forgetting to take off that ink tag. Total suckage.

LoL that has happened to me a few times. Such an annoying waste of your time.

Incidentally, it was my mum buying from the shop since she was going into town anyway, not me, but we're used to trusting that shop since they've been pretty good when we bought the last 8 or so games there.

I once bought a blue bathing suit, the sales lady forgot to take the tag off. My roomate thought the tag was lying and they wouldn't REALLY put ink in there. (He's not american) He breaks the tag, and gets ink all over his shirt hands and my bathing suit. The ink was the same color as the suit. I laugh and go swimming.

Its a sign not to get PS2 games.

It's a sign, man. It means something really, y'know, heavy.

It means, "Get the hell off the computer. Go outside and live, damnit, live!"

My advice: ignore it and get a refund.

Works for me.

SH4 is a really outstanding horror game. You will be missing out on something really good if you go for a refund... Oh, and Shiri, if you spend more time watching the screen than anything else, you are really, really in need of a hobby that isn't electronic. Take a few hours and go stretch those poor little eyes of yours. I pity them..

Psh. Screw that. I might have to do some homework later though. And I don't like doing homework on the computer on account of infuriating printer. So they might get a li'l break.

Shiri.. I just posted that seconds ago.. I hate you.

*waits like 10-15 minutes* Happy?

nope, gotta wait 10 - 15 hours

That happened to me once, except it was with a Gamecube game (Tales of Symphonia *drool*). I got my refund and store credit because I yelled at the store manager (I'm his close friend, so it doesn't matter).

Bwahahaha...

*throws ink tag at Shiri*

What's even worse about him (Shiri) is that this isn't the only site he is lightning-fast on. T_T

0_o What other site am I lightning fast on?
