I'm new to this site, and just wanted to say this is the best gaming site on the internets!!!
Anyway... I was talking to a manager at EB Games in Canada about the $2-3 dollar insurance you can get on your game, in the case that it's a defective disc you can exchange it no questions asked.
He said usually they need to keep more x360 games on hand because a lot more of them are defective, compared to PS3 games.
Now I have a question, does EB Games buy the games, and use the odds of people buying the service vs. the number of defective discs to make a profit? or do they make money on top of being able to returning the disc?
If it's the former, this is a slight inflation of xbox games sales only because they're defective.
What do you think?
