If you plan on calling up Sony to get a refund, here are some tips from a guy who worked in a call center for 3 months in college:

1) Don't be rude to the call center person. They aren't responsible for this problem and likely have little idea what's making you mad. They don't make the refund rules, so no need to rip into them to make yourself feel better.

2) If you're on hold for more than 10 min, I'd recommend you hang up and try again. Especially if you're "waiting to be transferred".

3) Do not ask for a supervisor unless you want to be on hold forever. In my old place we had one guy and when there was a busy day he'd have to take many, many calls. Most likely the person you're talking to can help you.

4) If one person rejects your refund request just call back and hope you talk to someone new. Sometimes a different person will help you. If they don't then ask for a supervisor, but be prepared for that wait.

Also, just being polite will help you in many cases. Acting like a jerk won't get you very far usually. Being treated like the biggest idiot on the planet for things you didn't do all day long wears on you.

Sorry about your loss, man. That sucks. Really glad you got a silver lining from it.

Keep in mind most of the people posting here are young. They're impatient. I'd probably even consider myself in that group. I want my game too! But you're right, there's nothing we can do and there's no point dwelling on what will be such a trivial issue and forgotten in a few days.

So you think being old is better?. The young guys can wait another day, but older guys like myself, over 70, tomorrow may be too late!

What position are ya'll going to make ya'll RTTS player. I'm thinking about a SS whose a contact hitter and a good base runner/stealer. From there ill work on my power. Also, im going back to college for three years, so i get those extra attribute pts. The only way i won't do that is if i get drafted by the Cards or Rays. (my favorite teams)

Are you guys really that desperate to play that you would go through the trouble of getting a refund and purchasing a physical copy?

Also, you don't hae to worry about your CD getting scratched and it not working. Yes i bought all my games digitally thus far, except the ones that came with the bundle i ordered. Im going green, by not polluting the air by driving to gamestop. lol

If you scratch a Blu-Ray to to the point where it cant be played then you did it on purpose.

Good news is I have to run some family errands and should be back around 7 PM EST and can have someone start my download if my PS4 does not automatically. (Assuming it is up by 5-6PM EST)

Should at least have enough downloaded to enjoy an exhibition game or something.

I usually start two careers: 1st baseman and pitcher.

Yes. I always laugh when the dude at GameStop asks me if I want the added disc protection for $3. You'd pretty much have to chuck the disc into a wood chipper for it to receive enough damage to cause a problem.

Worth quoting just so it's reposted. I worked on the same floor as service representatives at a former bank and it's so true. The support people know the basics but not much else. Their job is to guide you to a solution that works, and not know all the answers. If they knew everything or could fix everything, they wouldn't be a service rep.

So many people would go the extra mile if you are polite and nice to them. No one ever calls to say they are doing a good job, so appreciating what they can do will get you a lot further.

Can we stop with the "when I was younger I would be upset about this but look how mature I am now, blah blah blah" posts?

Its only the truth, i know how I would have been and I know how much less things like this bother me now. Its not so much about maturity as it is knowing whats truly important. If it bothers you then maybe one day you might grow up too!
