Since it's opened, only for the same title, what you do after that is up to you ;)

Nope. You can only exchange for that same game. Thats why you should always buy games from EB. They let you do a 1-time return for store credit or another game. BB sucks big ones.

you can only return it if its defective, or you can just claim "it's defective", but even if they do an exchange, they will acutally open the exchanged new pacakage so you cant return it as a new copy to get your money back.

Correct as long as the CS person follows policy, if not ;)

CompUSA used to have a really liberal game exchange policy. They gave you store credit for another title if you didn't like it. I think that was when most people didn't have burners yet...

You can probably wait until the day after Christmas to exchange it. They usually don't give a crap and will let you exchange it for whatever you want.

They are more liberal after Xmas with their returns.
