Don't Know if You'll Like Being a Sith Lord Apprentice? EB Canada Guarantees that You Will

paulhunter | August 17, 2008 | News | Playstation 2 Playstation 3

NextGen Player writes about the EB Games Canada promotion for Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. They have a gaming guarantee whereby if you preorder the game, you can trade it in for full credit within 7 days of purchase.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed looks like it will be a good game. An amazing game even. It looks like EB Games Canada agrees, as they have a Gaming Guarantee promotion on their website right now that where they're banking you'll like the game so much, that they are willing to give you full trade-in credit within one week of purchase. As usual, this offer is only given to people who pre-order their copy.

Not that I'm comparing the two, but they did the same thing with Haze. Doesn't really mean anything. In fact, in hindsight, it just looked like a way to sell copies of a game they knew was a pile of shit.

  That would seem to counteract your theory.
  
  Would everyone not return it upon realizing how bad it was? Unless they're banking on people spending more than a week before the realization sets in.

    It looks like they give credit back, not cash.
    
    In which case, they win, because they have your money.

Hmm. In Australia EB gives that guarantee for all games all the time. I have actually used it like a free rental service a couple of times.

I already enjoy being a sith lord.
This game better be as good as it is being hyped.
