I am so very angry right now! I've had to forfeit my Crysis 2: Nano Edition as there're no replacements!!! How stupid is that? I returned it four days after I received it, which means they will have received it sometime over the weekend, and they have none to offer as replacement? Or maybe they just can't be arsed dealing with me anymore?


Four months of anticipation for nothing, simply because they neglected to package a £120 CE in a more sturdy cardboard box... When I pre-order an item which is an online exclusive, I expect to receive it in nothing more than perfect condition! I don't feel I am being unreasonable


Of all the CE's of the year so far which I really wanted, it was this one. I committed to this for four months, and even held off buying other things in the lead up to this edition, and all for what? A damaged £120 CE as they were too tight or too lazy to package it better




If anyone has a spare in decent condition, then please let me know! Good money is waiting provided you can package dilligently

^ OH man- I Feel for you. I got concerned when you said you were returning it and then realised they ran out of stock. GAME have a history of this.

Would you have kept it even with the damage, could easily get a profit on eBay now that it sold out.

I would be seriously pissed also though, I do know theharrision over at SGH has an Xbox version for sale.

It's definitely the best edition so far this year and likely the rest of the year also.

No, I would not have kept it with the damage out of principal. It would play on my mind for as long as I owned it. I shouldn't have to be forced to accept something like that in that condition anyhow, not when other people received mint copies. The point is, GAME should have taken more care to package the item to ensure it arrived to me in nothing less than perfect condition!


I think the only two games which could eclipse this edition in 2011 are perhaps Gears Of War 3 and the new Call Of Duty game, but so far it's definitely one of the nicest, and a rarity from EA considering the trashy "Day one" LE's they keep releasing, and especially after the sub-standard Dead Space 2 CE...

That would be very helpful, although I must emphasise on condition - I returned mine because it had badly dented corners, and am looking for one with no damage.

Just awaiting my refund from GAME to come through

[Biggav4000]

Both of ours from game were mint,I am yet to open my ps3 ,probaly will tonight,He's having a think about it Gemini,am trying to see if he will swap my ps3 one for his 360 one ,will let you know.

This wasn't the only corner which was damaged by the way. I just realised that I didn't take pics of the other corners. They were well and truly bashed in, like someone deliberately smackdowned the box into the floor. I would have personally packaged this with corner padding to prevent this from happening, as the corners are the most vunerable part. But obviously GAME + Common sense don't quite go together in a sentence...

I wonder how much damaged returns cost GAME each year? Surely they could save money by simply packaging expensive CE's a little better and reduce damaged returns?

That requires thinking beyond simply getting it out of the depot.
