Time to queue up the torrent for this game. Shame really, Over the =course of the last 2 years I've ended up buying BioShock 1 about 4 different times through deals and stuff.

I'm fairly sure they don't show all the license iformation on the box. Also when you BUY the game you can't return it, so they already got your money and it doesn't matter. The answer is to go to a competitor who offers a better product (i.e. pirates).

I thought by law, the manufacturer has to issue you a full refund if you disagree with the EULA.

I thought that you cannot return opened PC games. Thing is you can't really read the EULA until you pop it open.

Not to the store.  I'm pretty sure if you disagree with the EULA you can send it back to the publisher and they have to issue you a full refund.

Which actually kinda screws them since that means they have to pay you what YOU paid for it and that's not what they get per copy.

I could be wrong there though.

Is there a limit on how much you can do this? Because I think it'd be much more efective to just buy games and make them lose actual money for shit like this. Far more effective than piracy, if they see millions in dollars actually wasted then it'd catch their attention even more.

I'd imagine if you did it to much they could take you to court and try and prove that you weren't acting "in good faith."  IE: kept buying the same game when you'd already read the EULA.
