I just returned the sucker to activision for the "cover original costs and some profit $122" and bought the ps3 version.

Just fill out the damn form? Great idea... wait, hold on, no I can't because I'm in the UK.
*also just notices the price for rockband in the UK*
Right, that's it, I'm going to kill everyone.

Good for Activision. With the faceplates, I'm satisfied. :P

Or at least I will be if I ever get it. >_>

At least the US got replacement discs. Over here in Germany, Activision is not even responding to post in the official forums about when we *might* get a replacement. They actually started to run TV ads for it again BUT keep selling the bugged version!

The lesson for today is if you don't have much of a case don't sue a major corporation. I wonder if someone would try to hook HD cables into that ancient piece of hardware!

So have they straightened out the problems with the returns yet? (I saw a LOT of people being told they didn't send the right disc back) Is the new version really fixed? I haven't read too much about the actual "after-you-send-your-disc-back" portion of this story..

Activision: I'm going to write a figure on this piece of paper. It's not quite as large as the last one, but I think you'll find it fair.

Lionel Hutz: I think we should take it.

@daisukeumon: Wouldn't it be awesome if we got money everytime a company screwed up, that'll just never happen though. I'd have been a lot less bothered by this whole deal if it hadn't been treated like some big secret. There was no recall, just a chance for those in the know to get a fixed copy, and Ativision to spend as little as possible.

Damn, he should have proceeded with the lawsuiot. Frankly we should have not had to fill out a form, Activision should had ceased production and have all of us return the the product with some monetary compensation for falsely advertisting, and continuing to sell a product without features. That settlement looks like a dumbass move.
