Basically, I bought Twisted Metal Black from this guy on ebay and he claimed it to be sealed. Lo and behold I get the game a week and a half later (was charged $5.50 shipping when this guy sent it like 4th class $1.30 in stamps) and it turned out to be sealed alright, but from BLOCKBUSTER! It was a used game!
Ok I assume that when someone states "sealed" in their auction, they mean brand new. Forgive me for my naivity, but isn't that what most people are led to believe? I reread the auction and it is true he never stated the word NEW but I believed that he should of disclosed the fact that it was used. I felt totally misled. If this game was sold from BB, the disc is probably all scratched up with the instructions all mangeled.
I want to write him an email and complain. Am I wrong for assuming that sealed meant new? :frown:
Here is the actual auction for the exact verbage:
Twisted Metal: Black Ps2 Sealed NR Paypal$.99 WOW!! While the Twisted Metal line of vehicular combat games has had uneven episodes, the developers at Incog have thankfully brought the series back in black, and it has never been better. Twisted Metal: Black pushes the envelope in terms of graphics, gameplay, and content. It's a tremendous game, but parents should keep in mind that it carries a Mature rating from ESRB and its content may be unsuitable for younger players. Gamers old enough to handle it will be treated to a must-have game for the PlayStation2. Twisted Metal: Black is one of the best-looking games on the market. The character design, animations, particle effects, and lighting effects are all topnotch, yet the game still runs at a speedy frame rate--even in multiplayer modes. The game isn't all about looks though, as gameplay is very deep and contains several modes. You'll want to play single-player story mode several times just to see how the game ends for its numerous compelling characters. Each character has a story line that's simple yet captivating. More importantly, each of the characters' vehicles has meaningful differences, so players are bound to find a rig that fits their playing styles.
