Halo 3 Chatter and XBL Gamertag Thread

[4 High]

I would just use the new 360 so i can play Halo 3 for the month while my actual 360 is being fixed. Then at the end of the 30 days i would return the new 360 back to Best Buy for a full refund. Im just not sure they give refunds for open 360s. Ill just say someone got a PS3 for me and i prefered that or something.

Why not just call the store and ask?

Hi, I purchased a 360 about a few weeks ago but [insert reason]. So I'd like to return it. What do I need to do and bring?

[Her response]

Ok, thanks. Will the purchase price be charged back to my credit card or what?

4high - asked @ Futureshop (Best Buy partner here in Canada with the same rules) and they'll allow you to return an open 360... Good thing too as I'm now entering into month 3 of trying to get my Xbox repaired.

As for an excuse, don't worry about it - just say your new religion doesn't allow for the playing of video games, then ask if they want to see some brochures... They'll take it back no questions asked [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Take a look at all the games that are coming this fall ... BioShock hasn't had much of a chance at GoTY.

I'm certain Halo 3 will be getting game of the year.

Yeah if Mass Effect lives up to its potential, wow. Halo 3 or Bioshock wont have a chance. Also be on the lookout for Call of Duty 4.

You don't need a reason. Just say you would like to return it. All they will ask is something like "Is there a problem with the unit?" Just say no, it works fine I just want to return it. They will take it back no questions asked.

I never understand why people feel the need to make up some elaborate story to return something. Just take up to the front desk, and say you want to return it. As long as it is within the 14 days or 30 days or whatever their return policy that is printed on the back of the receipt is, they will take it back no questions asked, no excuse needed.

An obivous exception to this already opened software/games. Hardware does not have the same restrictions.

Love this game. Love it. Its amazing. Sound, gameplay, graphically.
