It took 56 mins on the phone but I got a refund to my credit card and confirmation via email of the transaction. Will pick up the game after work. NO DOWNLOADS!!

All parties? Isn't it just on Sony's PSN end?

I know the SCEA San Diego guys must be absolutely livid, assuming the technical problems all lie on Sony's end. The Sony Blog Update is either saying that there is other issues at play or playing it off like it isn't their fault.

I don't know much about game development or sales but surely they won't sell as many copies by missing digital release. Us hardcore fans will buy no matter what but with possible negatively publicity on mainstream gaming sites will only seem to hurt the MLB: The Show brand and that is unfortunate.

they are not happy at all

People lose their jobs for stuff like that. At least in my world (IT). Realistically, they could have hardware failure on their side or the image was corrupted. etc.. A millions reason could be responsible for this delay but everyone who has work in IT for long time always have a Plan B and a backout plan to prevent situation exactly like this one to happen.

Its not the end of the world thought. For the thousands of hours I played the Show over the years, the 12-24hour wait, won't kill anyone.

I feel really bad for The Show team, seeing as this most likely isn't their fault. They worked tirelessly for months on this game and Sony can't release it properly for them. I'm betting their game is fantastic enough to make many people forget this fiasco though

have fun with 2 copies of the game

Not sure why you're so hell-bent on believing refunds are impossible. Ah well, why do I care! I'm like that guy last night in here. Commenting in a thread that doesn't pertain to me. I'll go enjoy my copy now.

For the rest of you, if you truly want to play any time soon I suggest giving Sony a call and requesting a refund. I've never not received mine when told I would get it. Just got my copy from Best Buy!

By the way, just as a side note.. Sony is extremely kind about people wanting their money back with this. I would be willing to bet you won't get one bit of grief by calling in. So many people have already done it that it isn't even in question.

Got my copy an hour ago, got my Stanton cover, just gotta wait for it to download and I'll be set. Although it looks like the loading times people were talking about were no exaggeration.

Here's a suggestion instead of trying to get a rare refund getting duped by Sony again...go redboxing the game for a day

I'm still considering downloading from PSN after work, only because I'm thinking having it fully digital may cut back on load times? Is that the case?

I can't believe this.

The game fully installs with the disc. The disc is just an authentication key.

Don't get too excited about the refund. The customer service rep can't issue a refund. Just a ticket that goes and is decided from higher up (reason it takes up to a week)

All you got was a ticket for a refund.. Be careful if you don't want two copies as you will lose money regardless.

I think we're safe in this situation due to the considerable amount of backlash and customer complaints.

But yeah, I won't feel totally secure until I see my Amex credited next week.

I guess he could have made his point better. The thing is when you call in and request a refund they open a case for you which goes to someone else or some other department who then decides the fate of your case. You are then notified a week later via email whether your refund was granted or not. Not everyone will get the ok for the refund. This has happened in the past. Some people will be stuck with a digital and physical copy. But since a card was used anyway people can always do a charge back through their bank or cc company.
