Submission + - Lemon Law for PC Games?
Monk writes: "Recently I purchased Gears of War from Gamestop, for the PC. I liked the Xbox version, but since I don't have an xbox, and instead I have decently powerful computer, I wanted to play it without buying a console system. The first time I played it, it crashed within 10 minutes. For the next hour, I couldn't play the game for more than 10 minutes without it crashing. It seems others have the same problem as me, after reading the Gears of War forum, so I wanted to take the game back and get my money back. There's no point in paying for a game that is unplayable. When I tried to take the game back, they would only exchange it for another copy. What do I do? Keep the game and wait for a patch? Throw it away and consider it a "loss"?
Is there any legal help for consumers who buy software that doesn't work? Who do I blame? Microsoft for Vista? Nvidia? Epic? Or myself for buying a console port of a game?"
