Is it usually possible to get another copy of a game if it's misplaced?

For less than retail since we already purchased the rights to install the game. The cd costs less than a dollar, doesn't it?

As long as you have a license that no one else is using, even if it is lost, you can use it.

Hm, for a misplaced game? i'm not too sure... i do know if your CD breaks or something, that most company would replace the CD if you send them the broken CD.

This sounds like Ryan is saying it's kosher to find a way to play the game w/o a cd

Ive done it before, I lost a CD to some very expensive software (that i didnt purchase :D) and the I called the company and since I had registered it, they sent me another copy for like 2 dollars. Always register your software!!!!

$2?

wow, some companies charge $10 and shipping. occasionally that actually costs more than what the game costs in stores.

Got my copy of WordPerfect 8 replaced when I "misplaced it" a few years back. Good thing I registered and all I had to do was call them. Read your EULA (End User License Agreement; like anybody does :p) to see if it is replaceable. Got it in the mail 3 days later free shipping. :cool:

If I smash my brand new 4Runner in the tree, and even although I still have title and registration for the car, do I get a replacement car from Toyota? Just a thought.....

You jsut get the money from your insurance. ;)
I had a car burn up while I was driving. Got more than I shouldv cuz they couldn't get the mileage on it. My mechanic had removed records of working on my car as well. :D Laughed my a$$ off when he did that. But also got some money from the manufacturer. Can't beat that. :D:D:D Now that was one smoking hot deal!
