Boycott Bungie!!! (Very Mad Costumer Thread)

Also you spelled 'customer' wrong in the headline, the word costumer makes the thread title sound like you got sued for cosplaying.

This was a literally laughing out loud moment for me.

lol yeah we're gonna start a movement for you.

the closest thing you'll get to a movement from me is when i go number 2 in a few minutes.

You broke the disc.

They're giving you a great deal by paying one third the price of a game for a new copy.

And your complaining, thinking you can get a movement going.

This is really why I feel the majority of the 360 community has a maturity level of a 10 year old.

First off, I really couldn't care less about what you say, second of all, I keep my disks in thier cases or in my xbox, the disks are cheap, along with most of the 360's hardware, third, as I said before, I know that it's only $20, but it's the priciple of the thing, and Finally, your saying I have the maturity of a 10 years old and your name is mariofreak, so I don't know how you can talk, not to mention that I asked nicely not to be a dick about this.

I'm trying to make a case for myself, but making you pissed off and look stupid is just a plus.

I'm sorry, but I have to respond.

Clearly you did care about what I had to say because you took time out to write this well thought out hate toward me. Also, I don't see how the principle of the thing allows you to get past what everyone else usually does when their discs break. And finally, your maturity level shows even more when you say that I am somehow less mature for having a Nintendo character in my name. I fail to see your point.

I reply to defend my actions, and If you don't see the point then I am validated.

WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN?

Are you just trying to make yourself look smart!?

I'm trying to make a case for myself, but making you look stupid and pissed off is a bonus(double post oops)

Let's disect the sentence I was referring to.

"I reply to defend my actions"

Simple enough, you were replying to me so you could defend your point of view.

"and if you don't see my point I am validated"

O.K... now how in the world, if I did NOT see your point, are you POSSIBLY validated?

Like, me not seeing your point would somehow make your point more proof?

Your point was I had the maturity level of a 10 year old because I have a nintendo character in your name.

Even if this somehow made a shred of sense, it wouldn't be you that was validated, it would be your point.

Damn.

You validated my point that you are in fact the immature one because you have to come in and try to prevent someone from a)taking a stand and b)getting something for free, so I guess damn back, wait I forgot, I don't talk like a dumb ass.

So by your logic we should just sit idly by while somebody is robbing our house right?

It's not your house, haven't you ever heard the phrase steal from the rich and give to the needy?

I just wanted to get in on this never ending quotation thread!!! And while I'm at it pay the freakin $20 bucks for a replacement disc for the one you broke.

first off get out of here, second of all, if you read the thread my point is that I already spent $20 on the maps!

Yeah I get that you already spent the $20 on the maps but YOU BROKE the disc so pay $20 for the new one. And I'm not getting out of here this is my intertubes also.

no big deal.. its halo3.

I dont play halo3 anymore but sporadically i get bored of cod4 (like yesterday) and i try to go back to halo3... and i immediately realize why i do not play halo anymore. It has by far the worst gaming community of all times, the game in single player is mediocre at best and the multiplayer... well ... cod4 is just so much better.

Yeah, because Call of Duty 4's community is the beacon of all that is good and right in the world of online gaming. :roll:

Ok umm yea 20 my not be alot some peolpe but the way the Economy is at the moment people who pay rent or Bills

but still i dont think u want to do this to Bungie

I understand where you are coming from with being pissed at the disc breaking, but why boycott Bungie? Isn't it Microsoft that deals with all the replacement stuff?

At any rate that sucks. Lol, thats why I spend the $3 extra to get the disc replacement warranty.

P.S. $20 isn't really all that much to spend. Annoying? Sure. But if you play it enough you won't care a couple days later.

Alright, first of all let me say that I like Bungie, I like Halo 3, I bought both of the map packs, and that is why I am pissed. My Halo 3 disk broke and after a 30 minute phone conversation with some lady who I swear was a stereotypical Indian outsourced costumer support agent, they said that I have to pay $20 for a new disk! Alright sure, that is their policy, but comeon, I already spent $20 on it for the maps. I'm hopping that maybe if Bungie sees this, or someone tells them, maybe I can get it for free! So please, don't just post annoying things, I'm serious about this.

LEt me tell everyone this, because you seem to overlook my points, The disk broke after 2 weeks of not playing it, my argument is that I already spent $20 on the game and why should I have to again? Finally, i don't really mean boycott bungie, but it sounds clever, get it, alliteration? Also, stop taking it so serious you rabbid fanboys. :)

FarmerJohn55

It's your fault that you broke it (in Bungie's point of view. I mean, who would believe that it suddenly broke?:P)

If you really wanted it you'd pay for it.

End of Story

So let me get this straight.

• You're angry at Bungie for not being careful enough with your disc.

• You're taking out your anger at Bungie for a standard Microsoft policy.

• You don't want to pay a third of the price for a new disc, even though you should have to.

Makes perfect sense to me...

This actually happened to me. My disc broke, but I got mine replaced. Here's what I did differentally:

-First, I read the warranty. According to the text at the back of the manual, Bungie and Microsoft are not responsible for fullfilling their warranty. The store you bought the product from is responsible for the replacement (this is Canada btw, it may be different in the U.S); however, you do get a 90 day warranty, and they have to replace it if the game fails.

-Second, I created a good argument. I was within my warranty and as far as I know, the game broke simply when I placed the disk on its nub (the plastic holder). My particular game box had a irregularly sized nub, almost a solid half-inch high, and it made my disk bend at an extreme angle when I took it out. I stopped placing the disk on the nub, but sometimes it managed to slip back on. Also keep in mind how hot the 360 gets. I assume the weakened state of the hot disk allowed it to snap.

-Finally, I didn't return the disk. I sent my mother instead. Why? Because people have a harder time giving sympathy to large, muscular men than they do to little old ladies. It turned out to be agood move. Even though the warranty clearly states I was within my rights to demand a replacement from the store, and I was able to explain how it was the fault of the box the game was packaged in, the employees snidely explained any breakage of game disks is automatically blamed on the purchaser and was merely misused. But that didn't matter. The sales associate felt sorry for my mother and her "poor little boy" and replaced the game.

So, instead of trying to start some silly little movement on the internet, maybe you should think about it a bit more and handle it in a more mature, thought-out way...or just buy a used copy for $10.

Mariofreak1216

I was thinking the exact same thing.

I don't see the problem here. I would be stoked if they did that for me. Better than going to a retail store and paying full price.
