Mass Effect 3 disc is cracked...

[TheHelix]

My game froze when I was playing and I noticed my ME3 disc is cracked. I bought it from Best Buy at launch. Is an exchange for the same game possible even though I already opened it?

I would say yes, as long as you kept your receipt.

As long as you have the receipt, I think you'll be good to go. Best Buy is normally pretty good with their return policy.

Is it on the inner ring of the disc?

I've had problems with those eco cases, even if I'm really careful with the disc. So much that I've considered putting all my 360 games in a CD wallet or something similar.

I put all my games inside sleeves inside the game case now, seems to have worked. 2 of my games cracked, pretty pissed off. One was Reach and of course MS wants me to pay $20 for a replacement....

I think they use cheaper discs nowadays, because I checked some of my Xbox games like halo 2 that I played the hell out of... It's scratched to shit, still works, but no cracks.

It's still within 30 days of purchase, so yes, it should be exchangeable for a replacement copy.

CE might be a bit of an issue, though.

Yeah I got an inner ring crack. It froze on me when I was doing Insanity at the end of the Mars mission.

Update: Exchange went smoothly, and my extra online pass can go to a buddy. Huzzah Best Buy.
